Powerful Tools for Quick and Easy Photo Editing
Capture NX 2 makes it even easier to make quick and powerful photographic edits so you can spend more time making photographs andless time editing them on the computer.
The original Capture NX software introduced the world to direct onimage editing. This revolutionary new development was the basis of theColor Control Point tool which enabled photographers of all levels to easily adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, color and warmth on specific elements of a picture such assky, skin, grass, etc. This made it possible to choose any area of a photograph for editing without the need for complicated selections or masking techniques.
Capture NX 2introduces the allnew Selection Control Point tool, which allows users to carry out nearly any image adjustment to a specific area with just a pointandclick to make theselection. Whether applying an Unsharp Mask to just the eyes in a portrait, a Gaussian Blur to only the background of a photograph or DLighting to open up the shadows, theSelection Control Point makes it easy to do. What once was a complex and tedious task now takes just a fraction of the time.
The newly developed Auto Retouch Brush allows you tosimply apply a few mouse strokes to clear away spots, blemishes or other unwanted distractions that appear in a picture. Photographers can quickly and effectively achieve theresults they are looking for without having to learn all new methods and skills.
The Capture NX 2 interface has been updated by adding "Workspaces" to optimizethe screen layout. Four preset Workspaces such as "Browser" and "Edit" can be selected as well as a number of userdefined workspaces thatoptimize single or multiple monitors for the ideal screen layout. The Edit List has been reorganized to allow easier access to most settings. Further, it maximizes the picturedisplay area while simplifying the editing process by allowing multiple edits to be viewed simultaneously.
With this range of impressive tools many shooters will find Capture NX2 to be a great standalone photo editing solution, while others will discover that its a remarkably effective addition to their existing photographic editing workflow andprocess.
