  • What Capture NX-D Can Do for You

Capture NX-D lets you fine-tune pictures by, for example, adjusting brightness and hue, and can also be used to edit RAW images taken with Nikon digital cameras and save them in other formats.

  • Capture NX-D is a software application developed to allow users to enjoy full-scale development of RAW images with simple operations. It enables high-quality photofinishing of images captured in RAW format – whether on a Nikon D-SLR, Nikon 1 advanced camera with interchangeable lenses, or compatible COOLPIX compact camera¹.
  • Capture NX-D can only open RAW (NEF, NRW), JPEG, and TIFF image files. If non-supported files are selected at the same time, only the supported images can be opened with Capture NX-D. You can select images in the Photo Tray; however, if you select multiple images and launch Capture NX-D, only the folder that contains the first image will open.

Nikon's new NX Studio software suite combines the company's previous ViewNX-i and CaptureNX-D applications into a single one-stop solution for editing Raw files from your Nikon digital camera. Find out more about its updates and enhancements in our review. Capture NX is a photo editing computer program developed by Nik Software in partnership with Nikon for macOS and Microsoft Windows. In September 2012, Google acquired Nik Software, but Capture NX has remained a Nikon software and is advertised as a Nikon product. In July 2014, Nikon released a new software Capture NX-D to replace Capture NX 2. See more and find the software here! The first video here!

Fine-Tune Pictures

With Capture NX-D, it’s easy to adjust such settings as brightness and white balance. Certain settings, such as exposure compensation and Picture Controls, are available only with RAW images.

Copy Adjustments

Save adjustments and apply them to other images or copy them to other computers. Saved adjustments can be applied to multiple images using batch processing.

Save Pictures in Other Formats

Fine-tuned or processed RAW (NEF/NRW) images can be saved in JPEG or TIFF formats for use in other applications.

Color control points

Capture

Color control points make it easy to brighten, darken, or modify colors selectively, sparing you the hassle of masks and other hard-to-use editing tools.

Color control points apply only to colors in a selected range. Color control points apply only to the chosen point and to objects of similar color in the surrounding area, leaving objects of other colors largely unaffected.

Adjusting the size of the area affected is quick and easy. Achieving the same effect in other applications would require careful and time-consuming selection of the area affected. In Capture NX-D, applying color control points to a specific area is quick and easy, as are later adjustments to the size of the area affected.

You can use as many control points as you need. The more points you add, the finer and more intuitive the editing.
