Capture NX
Can you use Capture NX with a D700 .NEF file, when you have the
Capture NX2 trial on the same computer? I tried and I get a message saying that it cannot load the file but I can still load .NEF files created by the D300. Alan |

Development and updates of NX ended with the release of NX2, which predated D700. NX IS compatible with your D300. NX2 is well worth the price of the upgrade. I also own D700 and D300 bodies, and use NX2 almost exclusively. Clean, handles well, with a small, but quickly assimilated learning curve. |

If NX is no longer being updated, what should be used in its place? (For now, with my D3.) Mike. |

I tried and I get a message saying that it cannot load the file but I can still load .NEF files created by the D300. Alan There's a hack program he http://home.comcast.net/~nikond70/Do...k/D700Hack.htm that changes the model number in the header of the D700 nef files to D3, so they should open with Capture NX 1.** I haven't tried this. Back up any nef file before trying. There are a few changes/improvements with NX2. Batch processing is /much/ faster. Integration with View NX is better. An upgrade version rather than full should still be available, even if the version of NX 1.** you have came free with the D300. |

Under Windows, you have the opportunity to put the trial software in a different directory than the existing version. I"m using Apples, and it's not been a problem under OS X. Tiger or Leopard. |
