Yeah, proprietary RAW files are a common problem, not only a Nikon
problem.
That's one thing I like about slides (and negatives): they *are* the
raw file. You can scan them any time with whatever technology and file
format is available. When archived in a controlled way, slides can be
stored without considerable aging (over 50 years for Kodachrome 64 and
Fuji Velvia 50). See http://www.wilhelm-research.com/book.html for
details.
Anyway, I guess we're getting off topic... :)
