![]() I think that complaint of Ann's applies to all the Nikon software that precedes this. ![]() It also wants to honour Active D-Lighting (something that is applicable to JPGs) and seems to base operations on other settings included in the camera's EXIF (all of which I inevitably ignore!)." "NX Studio makes heavy use of the camera's internally recorded Settings and Picture Controls (which are something that I never use). There are also useful tools such as axial color aberration correction and PF flare correction.įinally, I feel the conversions made by Nikon software look more natural and three dimensional and I feel this is lost when using other raw converters. I also like sometimes to use D-Lighting and I can activate this in post-processing using Nikon software. The Nikon software also obeys the white balance settings made in camera whereas ACR/LR makes its own interpretation of the white balance which is often quite different from Nikon's. This helps me see what worked and what didn't and allows me to investigate why. I still refine the image adjustments when needed, but I have a better starting point because while shooting the adjustments made are respected by the browser and raw converter.įurthermore, Nikon software shows the focus points and settings used in the camera. This saves time as when I view the images, the processing applied is as I have intended. I use Nikon software for browsing, image selections and some editing because the software defaults to using raw conversion settings set in the camera. I've never been a JPG shooter I felt it was too much of a compromise. My copy of NX Studio has now taken a trip to Never-never Land via the Uninstaller. My previous impression of Nikon's Software has now been re-confirmed. Neither did I get the impression that NX is any faster than ACR. NX also lacks many of the advanced tools (including Color Grading and a Smart Object workflow into Ps) which ACR now provides. It also wants to honour Active D-Lighting (something that is applicable to JPGs) and seems to base operations on other settings included in the camera's EXIF (all of which I inevitably ignore!). NX Studio makes heavy use of the camera's internally recorded Settings and Picture Controls (which are something that I never use). There doesn't appear to be a way to import my own xRite-engendered Camera Profiles. NX seems to have been designed for those who shoots JPGs instead of RAW. The Adjustments Panel is interminably long and needs excessive Scrolling. Too many vital controls are hidden in the Prefs and require a restart every time before any changes to the Prefs become available to the User. Well, I played with NX Studio for a while and then.
