Chapter 1 2 RAW File Format Benefits Capture NX contains full support for Nikon RAW NEF images and can be used with any JPEG and TIFF (RGB or LAB based) files. With JPEG and TIFF files, you can begin enhancing the files immediately by selecting one of the enhancements from the Menus. Introduction Shooting RAW has a number of distinct advantages over shooting and saving processed files. The RAW format records important archival information about the conditions under which the image was captured. This information can be used by Capture NX to make unique adjustments to enhance the image. The following are some of the camera settings and RAW adjustments that can be applied within Capture NX: • Color Mode (Page 45) • White Balance (Page 46) • Tone Compensation (Page 48) • Saturation (Page 49) • Sharpening (Page 49) • Exposure Compensation (Capture NX) (Page 50) • Hue Adjustment (Page 50) • Color Moiré Reduction (Page 51) • Dust Off (page 51) • Auto Color Aberration (page 52) • Vignette Control (page 52)
