Nikonimglib nvnx viewnx 2 installer
ViewNX 2 is free, and it's readily uninstallable if you end up not wanting it. This is hard to explain in a forum but you can easily see it for yourself just by trying it. It's so easy that it makes it totally unecessary to shoot raw + JPEG. Many times, I need do no further editing whatsoever, and I just click and convert to JPEG or TIFF. I "shoot raw", sort through my images in ViewNX 2, convert the keepers with or without any editing (they open up with the camera's picture control already applied on the screen but without any change to the actual raw file). I've never had a hang-up or a crash, but I do run a pretty clean Win XP SP3 system with as few processes running in the background as possible. I know that Capture NX2 is a tremendous resource hog on my old computer (although it does work on it), but ViewNX 2 works just fine and I stand by that statement.

ViewNX 2 is just a basic converter which uses all the same picture controls that are in your camera, plus they are all editable (including custom curves). If I can use ViewNX 2 on my old 5 year old laptop which was already obsolete at the time I bought it (single core), then most of the most people here should have no problem at all. Even if most image editors now come with raw conversion, it doesn't mean you have to use it just because it's there.įorget about all the old news regarding bugginess and all that. While these may have been a better solution in the past, at this stage of the game, it's a lot simpler and more effective to use the manufacturer's raw converter (I've only worked with Canon and Nikon) to convert your raw files into TIFF files, and then do further editing in whatever image editor you want afterwards. Personally, I don't see why most people bother to use the raw converters in other software. Not only that, but with Nikon at least, you also get virtually infinitely variable picture controls by way of the Picture Control utility which runs from ViewNX 2. When you use ViewNX (and of course Capture NX as well), it's like you transfer your entire pre-shot picture control system onto your own computer to play with after the fact. You get exactly the picture controls you set in the camera, but these are completely changeable because the raw data itself has not been modified in any way. Then you cannot fail to see how this all works.
