Dear Michael,

There is an ND2 plugin at https://imagej.net/ij/plugins/nd2-reader.html that 
might solve the problem. There were some reports in the past that it only works 
in ImageJ but I just tested it and it works in Fiji as well. However, it only 
has a windows installer and has to be installed in the Fiji folder. Under 
plugins you get NDi6d

Best wishes

Subject: Problem opening large ND2 files in ImageJ

We are wondering whether anybody has solved the following problem?


We have time lapse images of a few fields of stitched images and also still 
images of much larger stitched images (whole mouse brain slices) generated with 
Nikon Elements which we cannot open in Fiji.  We have tried both BioFormats 
6.5.0 and 7.2.0.


The error we get is "Unsupported format or file not found."


When ND2 did not work, we tried exporting to tif files.  We have tried both 
separating the channels to generate smaller single channel images and saving at 
OME TIFF.  Both yield the same error message.


We did try cropping the largest of our images, 58157 x 33163 pixels, exactly in 
half, but this will not open too (29078 x 33163 pixels, 4 16 bit channels).  We 
tried cropping out a small area, 2000 x 2000 pixels, and this does open ok.  We 
need two of the 4 channels in 16 bits, so we did not try converting to 8 bits.


This led us to the question, what is the largest image that BioFormats in 
ImageJ will open from a Nikon Elements generated dataset?  Have we hit a 
ceiling?


Any help would be appreciated.
