<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi,</div><div><br></div><div>To be sure that the problem is located in the DNG converter stage, Import the NEF file in your computer and post-process the conversion in the Batch Queue Manager.

<br>
Importing RAW photos converted to DNG takes a long time, like an hour <br>
for a few dozen files (NEF from a Nikon D7100).<br>
<br>
Is this normal?<br>
<br>
If I import the NEFs, it only takes a few seconds on my NVME disk.<br>
<br>
What can I do to track this during the next import?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
Benoît<br>
