RawCull 1.6.1 β Release Notes
Release date: April 21, 2026
From: v1.5.9 β v1.6.1
π Whatβs new
- Nikon NEF support added via a new
RawFormat-based architecture.
This expands RawCull beyond Sony ARW workflows and lays groundwork for broader RAW format support. - Nikon NEF file support is currently experimental. While other functions are operational, the extraction of focus points is not functioning as expected.
β‘ Performance improvements
- Grid View selection performance improved from O(n) to O(1).
In practice, this should make selection interactions much snappier, especially in larger sets.
π§ Workflow & UX improvements
- Fixed navigation behavior in Burst Groups, improving consistency while moving through burst sequences.
- Grid View is temporarily disabled while thumbnails are being created, preventing inconsistent interactions during indexing/loading states.
π οΈ Under-the-hood changes
- Refactored Nikon handling into dedicated extraction types:
- NEF thumbnail extraction
- NEF JPEG extraction
- Added a binary TIFF-walk fallback for NEF JPEG extraction, improving resilience across file variants.
π§Ή Maintenance & logging cleanup
- Removed noisy/unused logs, including:
- CacheDelegate eviction debug logging (commented out)
- Noisy NEF extractor warning log
- One additional log message cleanup
Upgrade notes
The next version submitted for upgrade on the Apple App Store will be released sometime next week, and version 1.6.x.
