ImageMagick will use the extension of the file to determine the format of the image. When you read an image from a stream it will use the first few bytes to determine the format. The first few bytes of a NEF image are the same as a TIFF image and when this is read with a TIFF reader it will read the thumbnail from the NEF image. As you have found out specifying the format in the settings will resolve your issue.
