Title: Nikon shouldn't try to make software.
Review: Capture NX's claim to fame is that it's the only software that can access all the in-camera settings recorded in the NEF raw file (NEF is Nikon's proprietary file format). Other software can read the image, the EXIF data, and the white balance, but that's about it.If NX were a well-designed application, this might be alright. However, it's actually a clunky, slow, nonintuitive piece of work, in my opinion. I worked with the trial release for a month, and simply found the slowness and poor user interface to be too much to tolerate.I use Adobe Lightroom ("LR") instead. Excellent results in a fast and intuitive interface. The much-touted "Control Points" of NX are here in LR (sans the name Control Point). Once you've calibrated your DSLR, presets in LR can reproduce the color that NX produces from the NEFs.
