Oh its also great to see that data and edits can be placed directly into the raw file rather than side car. Its actually really good, I am pretty impressed with it, much better than having separate software for separate tasks. I noticed one bug, if you make edits and then quit the app MAC it was ask to save the edits, select yes and it returns back to the software rather than quitting. Good to see this and great for Nikon owners who don’t want to pay for additional software. I’ve tested it, and it works well, very well given that it’s free.

Compared to the predecessor, usability is considerably better. However, I gain better and more flexible results with DxO Lab.

That’s worth the price for me, and it’s actually much more affordable than the incumbents. It’s part of the package when you buy a Nikon camera.

To be fair comparing NX Studio with other tools make sense it they ar free too. NX Studio is a nice gift to Nikon users, with some limitations. If lens correction is important to you, and if you use non Nikon lenses on your camera body, there is an interesting alternative.

Rawtherapee free can read the database of Adobe DNG converter free. The list of Nikon compatble lenses from Adobe is pretty extensive, That way if I share the file or whatever, or ingest it into another program, like LR, the coordinates wouild already be there. And I don’t think this could be too difficult. I mean I assume that whether the GPS coordinates are there or not, the overall structure data fields are probably there in the file they’re just probably blank so adding this after that fact shouldn’t be too hard.

I know that there are some tools people can use, but this is an OEM piece of software, and sometimes third-party apps writing back into proprietary RAW files can cause corruption. You can put the location information by clicking on the location on a map or you can use a gpx track and the software can automatically extract the location information for all images in the folder. This is why i use it. No but I’m talking about NX saving it back into the RAW file so that other programs can ingest the data by simply reading the file.

I think NX stores it in a separate file or a database on the computer. Ah my mistake then. You could try to change the ‘Save Type’ setting to save adjustments to the original file instead of the sidecar file.

That might work but i didn’t try it. At this point it’s not a big deal. In reality it’s also not a huge issue either as you can usually just give people a name of a place and let them find it on their own — the only times it’s helpful is if you’re off the beaten path a bit.

I would like to see the ability to add watermarks upon export in a future update in this program. I am transitioning to a phase where I might be sharing more of my photos on social media, where I would like to protect my best pictures through watermarking. Lightroom has a good system for adding watermarks, but I detest having to struggle through its catalog system to edit one picture.

There are a few things that were not carried over from CNX-D. Much has been mentioned about a loss of a convenient feature for exporting TIFFs to Photoshop and I noticed they removed an icon under the Adjustments tab for reverting back to your original image. This revert back icon should be restored. Unfortunately again not thought to the end: – do not display more than 4 images at the same time – no simultaneous resizing of the selected images in the viewer – no catalog for quick display with reduced image size like Media Pro.

Thanks for another great review Mike. Wasn’t even aware this existed, downloaded it and I’ll be giving it a fair chance. Any chance of a Silkypix review? Very good results with that one, if you can get used to the clunky interface. I know AKH. Hopefully they will fix all the missing things in the next version found several things that didn’t work. Can you make any localised edits via selections or brushes?

Is there a healing brush? Well that was an interesting surprise Will need to try it out a bit. The killer though will probably be a lack of plugins as publishing to my zenfolio site is something that just works from LR I rarely use photoshop though, I almost exclusively work in lightroom Ever notice that almost everything is compared to the Adobe products?

Sylvain C, A lot has changed in Lightroom in 4 years! I find that most of the Adobe haters will spend thousands on useless gear, like lenses they don’t need or use, filters they don’t use, etc etc, and then go cheap on processing software which they would use. You might not use everything every time you sit down at the computer, but it’s sure nice to have it when you need it.

After all, to put it in perspective, it costs less than 1 good quality UV filter per year. Not really, it’s very tough to find clients that are willing to pay, I get the very odd paying job, mostly real estate photography, but for the most part I just do it for fun, it’s a great hobby. I installed NX studio over the weekend, and played with it a bit. I can definitely see functionality gaps between it and lightroom, and some are deal breakers for me, that is not to complain on this new initiative from Nikon, as I understand its in its early days, and will undergo transformations.

Still I agree with munn1 that I will be sticking with LR for now, as it is pretty good value, and I’m in a similar position of sometimes paid work corporate events , mostly hobby. I will definitely be keeping an eye on the Nikon software though. Very interesting. Unfortunately NX-Studio can’t open these files. I bake changes into ‘developed’ tif files and leave the original raw files alone.

There’s comfort in knowing that the raw file is always there, pristine and unchanged, whatever I might do to bugger things up. Also, Highlights recovery and Shadow Brightness tool is great. I recommend. For videos I use other applications. I agree. Got the free manufacturer-specific version with my Lumix and eventually paid for the all-format license. It’s not a slick product from the UI point of view but very powerful in terms of image manipulation. I especially appreciate their informative and straightforward browser-based help system that downloads as a single file.

IMHO, this is a great approach: develop an engine available to all manufacturers for ‘free’ distribution with support only for their specific RAW format and then sell the same thing with universal support. I appreciate not having to learn something new for each camera brand and not paying subscription fees. I would say it is better in many ways, but as far as I remember NX2 has a little more advanced control points.

I wish it had NX2 selection brush where you could edit select part of the image without affecting the rest of the image. I suppose ‘lasso’ selection has gone too My first impression of this software was the colors. It is very good converting Nikon RAW files. And most of the Lightroom features are also in it. It will take some time to get used to using but it seems easier to use compared to Rawtherapee and Darktable Great job Nikon for this free software.

Search function for file info IPTC is case sensitive? When searching in my folder for “modellMC” I get no hits. So if I tag a picture with subject “Steven Andersson” the search “steven andersson” will get no results. Is there a fix or am I missing something? To reiterate a critical flaw someone noticed earlier in this thread, you cannot export directly into, in my case, Photoshop as a TIF. I wouldn’t call that very critical. But you are right this worked in NX-D, so it should work here as well.

I absolutely agree with Mr. Sony has just released a trio of impressively small, light, ultrawide lenses for APS-C.

Submit a News Tip! Reading mode: Light Dark. Login Register. Best cameras and lenses. Now reading: Review: Nikon NX Studio answers our plea for a free, all-in-one editing app comments. Introduction Nikon NX Studio version 1. Key takeaways: NX Studio comes with a modern, approachable UI Keywording and GPS tagging are now supported Allows for movie playback and light editing Image quality and performance are broadly similar to predecessors; convenience in a single package is the reason to upgrade A cleaner, friendlier, more modern user interface The user interface is aesthetically similar to that of both earlier apps, but it’s now cleaner, friendlier and more standards compliant than before.

Few and minor drawbacks to the new interface There are relatively few downsides to the new UI. You can’t undock panels any more, but you can customize the workspace with user-selected palettes to match your own workflow The navigation panel, folders and albums controls are all fixed at screen left, while the histogram, adjustments, EXIF information and keywording tools sit at the right of the screen. Keyword your images manually or based on location Given that ViewNX-i had a rather abbreviated selection of editing controls, I’d wager most users will be migrating from Capture NX-D.

View your images and track logs on the map Speaking of the map view, that’s another new addition, and it allows you to see geotagged images from your currently-selected folder or album on an interactive world map. The new Map view can pinpoint the location and capture direction of individual photos, show GPS track logs and automatically geotag your images from the tracks.

Play movies and perform basic editing tasks Another new addition is support for movies, both in terms of playback and basic editing. You can now view and perform basic editing on movies in-app, but you’ll need a beefy processor and GPU if you want to do so with ultra high-def footage.

You can also play basic slideshows in-app, but there are only three transition types to choose from, and you’ll need to supply any background music yourself.

Performance is similar to both predecessors As for performance, which was already a strong point of Nikon’s software compared to that provided by many manufacturers, things are also pretty similar to before. A few bugs, but that’s to be expected in a brand-new app In my time with Nikon NX Studio, I’ve found it to be very stable, but that’s not to say it’s perfect, nor would I expect a brand-new app to be.

Performance and image quality are very similar to those of its predecessors, and there are thankfully only a few minor bugs Firstly, there’s still an issue with detecting dragging of the right-panel scroll bar, regardless of whether the program is running maximized or not.

JRPhotography1 Good new Software, but it needs refinement! I’ll wait, while I’m continuing using C1. Bad Bokeh So far, it has crashed on my Win 10 PC several times, and it often refuses to actually execute things like Retouch.

Not even close. AMD x 32gigs and nvme ssd. NikonMarlowe Hi. NikonMarlowe Update. Digital Tyke Yes but you cannot specify the required file type. Janet Zinn yes I just discovered this and its a deal-breaker for me. RolMan Would not consider it a deal breaker, but agree that it complicates the workflow. RolMan Another issue I found is noise reduction. AhjayPee Looked good for a couple of days but now constantly crashing my Windows 10 machine with ‘Page Fault in non-paged area’ – very disappointed :.

Urbex Mark Anyone know of a way to have something similar to the Photo Tray with this new program? Nukunukoo Using it, and colour me impressed! Urbex Mark So I notice the Photo tray is gone. GiovanniB Keywording look rather rudimentary.

SwapM I like the Focus Points info.. James Grove Oh its also great to see that data and edits can be placed directly into the raw file rather than side car.

PeterjmTim Thanks for another great review Mike. M Lammerse Silkypix is the only other soft which gives you the exact camera settings as in Capture Studio. Photog74 Can you make any localised edits via selections or brushes? Hazeyblue Yes to you question. Download it and try, it’s free. Julian Well that was an interesting surprise Julian I rarely use photoshop though, I almost exclusively work in lightroom SdeGat May good points again munn1.

Is photo work a real business for you BTW? Julian I installed NX studio over the weekend, and played with it a bit. Spectro if they just merge the 2, otherwise I will still use capture nx-d here and there. Per Vindis Very interesting. AKH You can choose what you want. Hazeyblue It does. If so, this is awesome! Hazeyblue I use a custom Picture Set, based around Portrait – it recognises my settings. It does a exceptional job. You can export directly to Photoshop and Other Applications.

Color Control Points: Enhancements for hue, brightness and saturation are as simple as placing a Color Control Point on your image, then adjusting the length of the sliders. For example, Color Control Points are remarkably convenient for changing the color of flowers for better effect against green surrounding foliage. Take a dull gray sky and add blue to change the mood of a captured scene.

Selection Control Points: Now you can selectively edit photographs without the need to manually outline or mask the area for editing. Auto-Retouch Brush: Capture NX 2 adds an automatic retouch tool to its image editing toolbox allowing users to seamlessly remove blemishes, dust and other distracting elements from photographs while maintaining the integrity of the image. Designed to closely match the way photographers work with their images, Capture NX 2 is easy to learn and creates the highest quality results.
