Control Points allow you to work directly on the image without the need for selections or layers and to apply your enhancements globally or selectively, giving you the power to increasingly refine your enhancements in order to create a natural-looking effect.

The RAW format records important archival information about the conditions under which the image was captured. Camera Relationship Capture NX was designed to support all of the features of your Nikon camera, allowing you to change many of the settings that you applied to the image in your camera.

Please note : If Capture NX cannot determine the profile of the embed- ded image, the profile identified as the Default RGB color space will be used as the working space for that image. This option causes Capture NX to automatically convert the image from the embedded profile to the profile as defined in the Default RGB space. Nikon User Support Information U. Support for.

Thank you for choosing a Nikon Digital Imaging product. When you place your first Color Control Point, the U Point technology identifies the unique elements of the object on which you place a Control Point, includ- ing its position, color, saturation, and texture. Through a unique mixing function, the effects of the Color Control Point are applied throughout the image so as to create a natural-looking, seamless result.

Selection Step 2. Step 3. Finally, Control Points are added for skin Step 3. Selection tones and foliage. Another added to the foliage darkens the leaves and draws attention to the model. Editor The main window of Capture NX, the Editor, is the window you see when you are editing images outside of the Browser.

Toolbar The Toolbar is made up of five smaller Toolbars, each containing tools that provide similar controls. You can selectively apply steps with the selective tools found in the Toolbar, you. You can also manually create new steps using the New Step button. The Base Adjustments step contains all of the enhancements unique to RAW images, as well as enhancements that can be used to prepare your images. For more information regarding the Edit List and all of its uses and features, please see page Photo Info The The Photo Info Palette displays the information you choose to display next Capture to your image to help you determine the optimal settings you want to use for each enhancement.

The Photo Info Palette contains a live histogram, a NX graphic interactive display that reflects the statistical makeup of the image. Interface values in the image. Please go to Additionally, through the use of Watch Points, you can monitor the effects of the changes you make to the color page 99 for more information regarding the Photo Info Palette. File Directory The File Directory provides you with an easy-to-access Palette which displays the contents of an entire folder in the Browser.

Camera Settings By opening the Camera Settings Palette, you can see all of the cameragenerated data for the current image, from information regarding the camera that created the image to exposure information. IPTC The IPTC Palette provides you with a place that you can view, add, or modify information for your images, such as the caption, keywords, categories, and copyright information.

Alternatively, if you have selected to add Capture NX to your dock, simply click on the Capture NX icon within the dock to launch the application. Welcome Screen Upon launching, Capture NX will display the Welcome Screen, which lists the last files and folders that you accessed, and give you the option to open an image or a folder in the Browser. Double-click on any of these images to open them immediately within the Editor.

Open Recent Browser This section contains a list of the. New This section enables you to browse for an image or folder to open within Capture NX.

Using the Browser Capture NX contains an enhanced browser that provides you with advanced labeling, sorting, and editing functions. Using Open Image By selecting Open Image from the File Menu, you can navigate to any folder on your hard drive and open a single photo. Docking Button This button is visible only when the window has been expanded. This can be handy if you utilize two monitors and you want to place the window on the second monitor, or if you want to bring one of the Toolbars closer to your image.

Grip Edge Drag this edge to reposition the window. Resize Control This part of the window enables you to resize the window to suit your needs. If there are any images that are currently awaiting batch processing, a message will remind you that you have unprocessed images in the Processing Queue. Saving your image to this format will result in a file that contains the final state of your image as you see it Getting on your monitor, with full image quality.

Once an image is saved to the TIFF format and closed, you will not be able Started to access the contents of the Edit List to make any adjustments to the enhance- ments that were applied to the image. JPEG One of the most widely used file formats, the JPEG file format enables you to save a greater number of images using the same amount of hard disk space as the other file formats.

To create such a small file size, a form of compression is used that irreversibly affects the quality of the image. Print Packages make the most out of your printer and paper, enabling you to create proof sheets so that you can review and select images based on the output, rather than the computer monitor.

Typically a photogra- Chapter pher will use a batch process to apply a predefined series of adjustments to several images at once. Capture NX supports a 5 number of batch processing methods. You can run a traditional Batch Process, select- ing a folder of images and a Settings File to apply to those images, you can copy and paste your enhancements from one image to another, or you can select multi- ple images in the Browser and apply a Settings File or paste some enhancements directly to those images.

One method of applying a batch process is to create a Settings File that contains a series of enhancements to apply to your image. Settings Files are created by identifying enhancements that you want to save from the current image. How to Apply a Batch Process With a Settings File Once you have created a Settings File, you can begin applying the enhancements from within that Settings File to any image, either within the editor, within the Browser, or even to a folder on your computer.

If you are applying a Settings File to multiple images in the Browser, the thumbnails for the images will automatically become updated and a small icon will appear next to each selected image, indicating that it needs to be processed. How to Apply a Batch Process by Copying and Pasting Enhancements While Settings Files are very useful if you have a series of enhancements that can be applied to a large number of images, there may be instances where you may want to apply a series of enhancements to a small batch of images.

To begin the copy and paste method, open an image that is representative. Perform whatever enhancements you think appropriate to the image, navigate to the Batch Menu, and select Copy Settings.

By default, Capture NX will copy all of the enhancements that are applied to the representative image. This saves the images using the NEF file format in the same folder location with the same file name. If you would like to change these settings, click on the button within the Processing Queue to display the full set of controls provided within the Processing Queue. The Browser Capture NX contains a very powerful browser that enables you to browse, sort, and organize your images, as well as to rotate or apply batch processes to multiple images simultaneously.

You can access the Browser in two different ways: 1. Additionally, while you have selected the Zoom Tool, rolling over an image will cause a larger version of that image to become visible. Under the four folder buttons are commands that control the location of. Folder Back This button navigates to the last folder that you opened within the Browser.

Folder Open This button opens a list of previously viewed folders. Folder Forward This button navigates back to the last folder that you viewed before using the Folder Back button. Inverse Sort Button This button reverses the order of the images displayed within the Browser. Opening this Menu on an image within the Browser, you can: Open an image or group of images. Folder Menu The Folder Menu within the Browser contains different controls for the view of the current folder.

Open Select this option to open a folder browser dialog that enables you to locate a folder to display within the Browser. Open in Split Window Select this option to open a folder browser dialog that enables you to locate a folder to display in an additional browser window that becomes available next to the current folder.

New Folder This option creates a new unnamed folder inside the current folder that you are viewing within the Browser window. View The View sub-Menu enables you to choose from different methods to view the contents of the current folder.

This view causes the images to become displayed in a row format; resizing the Browser will cause the images to become resorted. Label Menu The Label Menu within the Browser contains tools to assist you with labeling your images, which is important when it comes time to sort and archive your images.

Rather than manually adjusting the Edit Steps each time, it is a tremendous time saver to create a Settings File of your Edit Step s and apply it using the Batch tool.

This is the only step you want to save. When you are finished, the new setting will be stored in the batch settings list under the Batch icon. Make sure that only item checked in the Save Adjustments dialog is the setting you want to save. The Control Point approach to making selections is fast and intuitive. Creating a selection that would normally require several minutes or more of mask work in Photoshop can be done with a single mouse click in Capture NX2 using a Control Point.

Color Control Points and Selection Control Points both use the same technology, and so both create selections in the same way. The difference between these two tools is that while Selection Control Points simply define a selection in an Edit Step, Color Control Points have a suite of tools built into them for adjusting local color, brightness, and contrast. A simple rule is that if you are making adjustments to light and color that require a complex selection, Color Control Points should be your first choice.

One last thing about Control Points: not every image needs them, and those that do often only need a small number of Control Points. It can be very tempting to start adding Control Points in all your images. Remember, sometimes less is more. Each slider controls a different adjustment parameter. The most commonly used controls are the Brightness, Contrast, and Saturation sliders, which are visible by default.

Selected areas are shown in white. The main slider attached to a Control Point adjusts the size of the effect. The size slider determines the relative distance from the control point that the effect is spread over. This will give you a feel for how the tool is making selections. Put the control point on a diverse area of the image, and the selection changes dramatically. Notice how the moon top was not selected, as it did not match the pixel information in the sky.

You can add more than one Color Control Point to your image, but it is important to know how multiple Control Points interact. When you place two Control Points in the same Edit Step, they will act to cancel each other out in areas of overlap. This property of Control Points is actually quite useful. Notice that the face turns black. If you want to create additive effects with multiple Color Control Points where effects are not cancelled out , then use separate Edit Steps A second Color Control Point placed on the face chooses the skin tones, and for your Control Points.

Then the effects will overlap. Control Point behaves as though all its sliders are set to zero. While you cannot add to the area selected by a Color Control point, you can use the minus brush to remove the effect from parts of your image.

These are the protected areas that the Color Control Point can no longer affect. Rather than adding another Color Control Point and trying to manually adjust each slider to match the settings of the original point, you can use the Duplicate command to make exact copies of your Control Points. Place a Color Control Point on your image and adjust the sliders to your liking.

As an alternative, you can right- click on the Control Point and choose the Duplicate command from the contextual menus. Move the duplicate point to where you want to place it in the image bottom. Color Control Points are my go-to tool to recover shadow detail in photos taken of people wearing baseball caps where the face is in the shadows.

The best part about using a Control Point for this effect is that it looks totally natural when applied correctly– and it is ridiculously easy to apply it correctly. The unfilled circle on the triangle represents the current color of your control point. Turn the wheel to adjust hue, or place the dot wherever you want in the triangle.

You can use the eyedropper icon to pick out a color point from anywhere on your image. Click the eyedropper icon and then click an area on your image that has the color you desire. It is very easy to get unnatural looking results. Click and drag the edge of the color The eyedropper icon lets you pick a wheel to change hue.

Opening the Swatches Panel gives you access to commonly used colors. No longer do you need to use a separate pixel editor program to edit your image simply because of a dust spot. The Red Eye Control Point is used to remove the red-eye effect sometimes seen in indoor flash photos.

Of course, not all my images will need these tools, but it is nice to know that they are there when the situation presents itself. It makes removing dust spots absolutely painless. Auto Retouch Brush in 1 Open the image action Notice the dust spots in this image. Adjust the size of the Auto Retouch Brush using either the size slider that appears beneath the toolbar, or by After Auto Retouch Brush using the keyboard shortcuts [ or ].

Repeat for additional dust spots, offending seagulls, or anything else that is small and distracting. Tip: Keep your sensor clean One way to get rid of dust spots is to have a clean sensor.

I recommend the Copper Hill method. Before We all have shots where our subject looks like the devil with red eyes. Use them in the situations where they are warranted. Obviously, if your horizon is level in the image then using the straighten tool makes little sense.

Use the Straighten tool to correct tilted images. Drag the Straighten Tool across the horizon line or other reference point. Some lenses, especially super-zoom lenses and wide-angle lenses, will produce images with slight distortions. You can use the Distortion Control Tool in Capture NX2 to correct distortions in your images caused by lens aberrations. Note that white areas appear around the image. You can change the fill color using the Fill color tool in the Edit Step. Drag the slider to the right to correct barrel distortion.

One way to use the Crop Tool is to help improve your compositions. Remember, the Crop Tool does not resize your image. Use constrained cropping to maintain a particular aspect ratio for your image. Use the in your image. As anchor points on the corners and sides of the crop frame to resize it.

Click the Enter key on your keyboard or double- click inside the crop area to set the crop. You can remove a crop at any time by deleting the crop step from the Edit List. Not to worry; the effect will stay applied in exactly the same place you originally put the Control Point. Warning: Placing Control Points after cropping If you place a Control Point on your image after you have cropped it, and then later decide to delete the Crop Edit Step, the Control Point will not only move in your image, but its effect will be replotted, as well.

I strongly encourage you to crop after all Control Points have been added to your image to avoid issues. In addition, if you install 3rd- party filters, like Nik Color Efex Pro, these items will be displayed in the Filter Menu.

This of course allows you to apply Filter Effects globally or locally. This filter will darken the complementary color to the color you choose. For example, a yellow filter will darken blues in your image and lighten yellows.

This is a filter that I use very little, if at all. Colorize Use the colorize filter to overlay colors onto the image. Use the color selector or eyedropper tool from the Colorize tool to choose the desired color.

Black and White Conversion Use this filter to convert color images to black and white. The filter option works in the same way as the filters in the monochrome settings in Picture Control. These filters will show up in the Filter Menu, and are also applied in Edit Steps.

The filter options you see will depend on the version of Color Efex you have installed. By now, you have probably noticed that when you disable in-camera sharpening in Picture Control, your image looks quite soft.

In Capture Sharpening, you need to consider our camera. Second, you must also consider our subject matter. Output Sharpening happens as the very last step in the output stage of your workflow and takes into consideration the size and destination of your image.

A small image destined for the web will be sharpened much differently than a 16×20 inkjet print. Capture and Output Sharpening are applied as global adjustments. In between the two sharpening steps, it is an option to perform some selective sharpening or blurring of our image to get a desired effect. Noise Removal Depending on your camera and how you use it, noise may or may not be an issue.

Every camera manufacturer has its own approach to noise removal, but one thing is constant; removing noise can cause a loss of fine detail in images. Your sharpening settings will be impacted by any noise removal settings you use, because these two processes are effectively working against each other. Therefore, it is important to be able to adjust sharpening settings in the context of noise removal. In my opinion, leaving noise removal up to the photographer is a good thing.

If you plan on using any of these programs some of which are quite good , do not sharpen your image at all, and do all your noise reduction and final output sharpening in Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. First, it provides excellent control over image sharpness. Second, Capture NX2 automatically applies USM only to the luminosity channel of your image, reducing the appearance of color shifts and other artifacts.

The third, and possibly nicest feature of sharpening in Capture NX2 is the fact that sharpening becomes a non-destructive process. While there are ways to sharpen non-destructively in Photoshop, those techniques are far more complicated and require bitmap layers that can easily double the image file size.

Think of it as a master volume control for USM. Radius: This slider changes the distance over which the USM effect is applied. A small radius sharpens fine detail, a large radius sharpens overall shape. Threshold: The threshold slider adjusts the sensitivity of the USM tool to differences in tone values between adjacent pixels. The value you enter is the number of tonal steps that any two adjacent pixels must differ by in order to be affected by the tool.

A threshold of 0 would sharpen just about anything in the image; a threshold of would sharpen almost nothing. Make sure Picture Control sharpening is set to zero 0. Clockwise and then adjust the from top left: No sharpening applied; over-sharpened image; proper Capture intensity slider to get Sharpening. That to your hard drive and way, I can quickly choose between Neutral, Standard, and then use the Manage Vivid presets from the batch icon and turn off sharpening at Settings tool from the NX2 preferences options to the same time.

Settings files can only be opened from within Capture NX2 when an image is active in the Edit Window. Another sharpening technique uses the High- Pass filter to enhance image contrast.

To apply high-pass sharpening: 1 Open an image file. Your image will turn gray. NR blurs noise, sharpening enhances noise. Noise starts to appear in images as you increase the ISO setting in your camera. Different sensors have different noise qualities, but in general, noise can occur in either the chrominance color part of your image or the luminance detail part of your image.

Note the mild chrominance color noise and moderate luminance noise grain. The quality setting will greatly impact the amount of time it takes to process the Noise Reduction filter. The two adjustment sliders seem simple enough: Intensity and Sharpness.

The sharpness slider works by restoring detail in the luminosity channel, while the Intensity slider blurs both color and detail. People obsess about noise and noise reduction. I suggest that Noise Reduction be applied sparingly. Consider that just about every digital camera on the market today provides images that are significantly cleaner than film ever was, even at high ISOs.

When should you use Noise Reduction? When can you skip Noise Reduction? If you apply NR to your image, consider using a lower amount of USM, with a higher radius and threshold than you would normally use. This setting will help prevent your USM step from re-sharpening all the noise you just tried to remove! Intensity is on the left side of the table, and sharpness 5 settings are listed at the top. The intensity slider functions to blur image data, especially in the chrominance color channels, which helps to 10 remove the appearance of noise.

The sharpness slider reduces the blur from the intensity slider, but it does so primarily from the luminosity channel. The trade off of most NR tools is that it is easy to remove color chrominance noise 25 without harming image sharpness; if there is luminance noise grain , removing it destroys detail significantly. Usually, there are areas in images that have detail we wish to preserve, and other areas which are out of focus or where sharpness is not critical, like skies.

Make sure sharpening is turned off and that you have not performed any sharpening on the image. Adjust the intensity slider so that the color noise is removed. The image will look smeared. Optional: Selection Control Points are very useful for adding NR to skies at a strong level Use the Opacity Mixer to reduce Luminance opacity until the while leaving the rest of image has detail again.

Note the chrominance and luminance noise. Sharpening will tend to counteract this blur. You may want to reduce the radius slightly if you get major halos in the image.

Adding noise reduction is always at the expense of some image detail, so use it sparingly. Nikon D2Xs, For more on versions, refer to page Typically, that means making a print, but sometimes it means making a small JPEG for the web, or an image that I can send to friends or clients via email.

How you optimize your image for its final output depends on the size and quality of the image, as well as its final destination. Most often, I resize my images for printing them without cropping them first.

That is, I keep the image in its native aspect ratio and either make the image smaller or larger, depending on the print size. There are two methods for resizing images: resizing while resampling and resizing without resampling. Resampling allows you to set the image resolution by interpolation while also scaling the image. When you use resampling, the dimensions of the image, in pixels, changes and the file size will increase or decrease.

Resizing without resampling will keep the pixel dimensions and file size constant; resolution will change depending on the size you make the image. The method that you choose will depend on the final output size and destination of your image.

The other side of the image will be adjusted proportionally. Resizing without resampling will change the image resolution but keep the file size in pixels the same as the original. Resizing with Resampling will allow the File Size to grow or shrink, depending on the image size. Note that the original The most common use of the Crop Tool is to produce an image that has a particular aspect ratio. Common picture frames, however, come in the aspect ratio 8×10, 16x Set the aspect ratio to 8x Use portrait orientation for vertical shots; landscape orientation for horizontals.

The other field will scale to 8 inches. This is why you need to combine a crop with a resize step in Capture NX2. Before you try this technique, it is critical that you have a calibrated monitor and you have installed the paper color profiles for your printer. The toughest part about soft-proofing is remembering out what the original image looked like. This technique is a great way to ensure the best possible soft-proofs. This creates a copy of your image.

At least I can be ready for that when I go to print the from the Target Profile image! Choose either relative colorimetric or perceptual rendering whichever you think looks best. Make sure black- point compensation is enabled. Understand that in some cases, a perfect match may not be possible due to the gamut color space of your printer. To overcome the sharpness loss when printing, I recommend another round of sharpening, often referred to as Output Sharpening. As a general rule, an image properly sharpened for print will appear to be over-sharpened on the screen.

This will add a High Pass filter into the open Edit Step. When you are saving an image for the Web or email, you need to make it smaller and convert it to the sRGB color space. This procedure will do just that. Use relative colorimetric intent and black point compensation checked.

The print dialog will open. Otherwise, Capture NX2 will try to scale the image to fit the paper. This will allow Capture NX2 to control the color settings. Higher quality settings result in a larger file size. In the JPEG save options dialog, you can set the compression amount to vary file size.

You can change this directory in the Capture NX2 preferences. Use the Open With Certainly, Capture NX2 puts a tremendous number of tools at your disposal.

The other way to speed up image processing in Capture NX2 is to take advantage of its automated presets. Other images require special handling, but the majority of my editing steps happen in mere seconds. In just one or two clicks of my mouse, I can apply Edit Steps that contain my most commonly used adjustments. The Save Settings dialog box will open. I save my settings to the default location.

Check the box next to the step you want to save. Make sure all the other steps are unchecked. This is useful for making changes to Picture Control Settings without having to expand the Develop Section. Make sure this is the only option selected, unless you want to save other parameters. You can access all your saved settings from the Batch Icon in the Edit List.

All you need to do then is make the adjustments to the Edit Steps as you see fit. The Settings preferences dialog will open. Note: If you move the location of a Settings File, it will no longer appear in the list. This will permanently delete the file from your computer, so use this option with care!

By using the versions tool, you can store multiple instruction sets for each NEF. For example, you can save different crops, different image sizes, or different processing effects into a single NEF.

Look for blue text to link you back to pages in Section I where you can refresh the use of a particular tool or technique.

Portraits usually require soft lighting and low contrast. Colors should be slightly muted in formal portraits. These settings accomplish that. Control Points will let you easily add fill lighting effects.

After 7 Drag the point created on the chroma curve downward, and the widen it with the width slider. This links a second blur step along with the first one. The skin softener effect works by linking two different Gaussian Blur effects into the same Edit Step. Note: Perform this step after Capture Sharpening. Move up 4 Click two points on the Master Lightness Curve as shown in the illustration. Then keep moving the slider to the right about 5 more units.

Boost the saturation of reds and greens in the Chroma channel editor. Widen them with the width slider. Move the master chroma slider up to an output level of 5. If the image appears over- sharpened, reduce the Amount slider. To selectively remove haze from a scene, you can use a Color Control Point.

Use duplicate Control Points to fill in other areas as needed. This is a very subtle effect, but it can add some clarity to images that have large, distant objects in them. This is the basic formula for adjusting images of wildlife. I treat wildlife images as sort of a hybrid between landscapes and portraits. I usually want my wildlife shots to have rich colors, but I also need to retain detail in fur and feathers.

This is the basic routine I use for processing wildlife images. The Black and White Conversion filter allows you to change your color images into powerful black and white images. Leave the black luminance at 0 and the white luminance at Apply Capture Sharpening. Capture NX 2 provides you with a full range of printing options. The print function is both easy and powerful, enabling you to create high quality, fully color managed prints.
