I had the same problem with these proprietorial files too. I ended up opening them up with Nikon's software -but Scott Kelby explains that you can import them into LR as .dng files and then LR will see them. HTH

Also, there is a firmware update for your camera (1.01). Make sure that you have that installed if it is not.
