KTCY,
how do u think of the NX2?
i havent used it before. previously i was using camera raw (yuck) until i discover capture one (phase one)

omg! that software is awesome. a bit slow and not suitable for event/wedding photographers though. but the conversion of RAW to TIFF is awesome
*
I find it very good. Easy to use, one click. But I think capture one should be even better.
For me, I find the color reproduction of RAW much more accurate if compare with LR / camera raw which I used before. That's why I go ask for genuine version tongue.gif

And yes. A bit slow. But can do batch processing also. biggrin.gif

i tried to convert a pic from nef to jpg, then convert the jpeg back to nef with capture nx2. the sizes go like this

nef (ori) = 9.7mb
jpeg = 5.8mb
nef (coverted from jpg) = 13.9mb  blink.gif

Shooting in RAW and JPEG doesn't make you understand how compression work. really I meant it.
e.g you have 8mb of Jpeg file.
where if you have exactly the same file 12mb in RAW.
you lost 4mb of file detail. which magic software an bring your 4mb details back?

well if you use capture NX see how does it work. does it bring you meta data back?

anyone here got 14-24 f2.8?

do u find the zooming ring abit hard to turn at 20 -24mm? mind very hard to turn. like got some sort of lock
*
Nope. Very smooth wink.gif
You bought brand new ?

QUOTE(ifer @ Mar 22 2011, 11:13 AM)
Capture one manage to extract more micro detail from you photo. and of course the colour profile of other cameras thingy.
try to find a copy. you will be amaze what your camera and lens can show (details) that you seemed not to be able to see with NX and camera raw

I'm looking for that actually. Not sure where to source for full version to try out hmm.gif

No it won't.
You might need to understand how auto focus works.

Thanks for the info. I will call them up and look for them. smile.gif
I just checked. You cannot.

Compare between real NEF and NEF that is saved from JPG.

nikon knows their own raw file algorithm better than anyone else. it's their algorithm what...

that said, by no means other party interpretation of the nikon raw file are sloppy. personally i find the difference nothing to be picky about.

I used to use LR for 2-3 years before I got my hand on NX2.
I feel LR color and NX2 color different by quite a bit. hmm.gif

He speak base on his experience which I think none of us here can beat his experience in photography.
