I have a Nikon D90. Really don't know how to use it. I keep it on auto. Recently When I download my pictures I get two of each picture one in a NEF and One in JPEG. How can I get it to stop doing this? Also How do I set it up to take the highest resolution pictures? When I blow the pictures up they are blurry. Cant use them on website.

Hello and welcome, I am not experienced with the D90 but many here are. I am sure they will be along and go through the settings with you. As for blurry images that many not be down to the resolution. What lens are you using, we need to know that to be more helpful. The focusing mode is a setting which can affect the results. Perhaps if you post one of the blurry JPEGS here we can help better, believe it or not there are many types of blur, all with different causes. Blur is not usually caused by resolution. The image will have the exposure data embedded so if you post a JPEG we can tell what some of your settings are and help you from there. Do you have the manual, if not you can download one in PDF from Nikon website. Probably your best move is to do a 'Two Button Reset' which sets most of the settings the camera settings back to factory settings. Again not familiar with D90 but there are two buttons on the top of the camera with green dots on or next to them, if you press them both at once for about ten second that should clear any of the unwanted settings and get you back to normal, well a good starting point anyway.

How can I get it to stop doing this? Hi and welcome These issue are covered on pages 62 and 63 of your manual....if you have one. If not, press the QUAL button on rear and rotate the main dial ( the one by your thumb when shooting) and watching the top display turn it to JPEG FINE. This will compress your images the least amount and ensure they retain optimum fidelity. Next, press the same QUAL button and rotate the sub dial ( the one by your forefinger when shooting) and watching the same area of the top display turn it till L is shown. This gives you the Largest image size and therefore the best quality. Next turn the program dial to P rather than the green Auto position. This will do the same as auto except the focus. You focus by half depressing the shutter button on the subject to lock on, then all the way down to take the picture. On Auto setting the camera also does the focusing automatically....this may sometimes focus wrongly on closer or further away areas causing the main subjects you want in focus...to be out of focus....ie fuzzy. Finally to ensure you get sharp pictures the lens quality and camera settings play a major part. We would need to know more about the lens you are using. But also the settings the camera is using. Eg shutter speed aperture and ISO. The best way to help with this area, is for you to post some images in your gallery so we can read the shooting details in the file exif. Don't worry or be embarrassed about the quality of the images ....we often post less than perfect images when trying to solve a problem or learn more about our equipment.

How can I get it to stop doing this? Welcome to the forum. I have D90 that I use in an underwater housing. When used underwater it is setup in Manual mode with flash. I can probably help you but most of the Nikon cameras work very similarly so advice from users of other camera models is equally applicable.

I did all the first settings you gave me. As far as the lens goes, its the stock one that came with the camera. I do not know how to check the settings because I do not have the manual. I took a picture after I changed the settings but the site would not allow me to post pictures yet. Thank you so much for the help. Could I e-mail you the picture?

OK D90 manual is here as a PDF. http://www2.webster.edu/acadaffairs/asp/mediacenter/MediaCenter/equipment%20manuals/NikonD90.pdf Regarding the uploading of photos to the Gallery. If you email to me then I can upload for you but it is easier for you to do this..... Log into the forum. Then click on the My Gallery link in the left side menus, then go into Albums and then Upload Image link. Sometimes you need to also Login in the Gallery as there seems to be times when the username and password isn't passed forward from the Forum login.

Make sure that when you upload that the images are going into your named album as the default is a common album. Software setup is dumb!
