Capture NX-D is Nikon's proprietary software solution for converting RAW images from company-produced cameras. It works with both full-size Nikon 1 devices and compact Nikon Coolpix devices. In fact, we have here a replacement for Capture NX 2, which differs from the "predecessor" in that it is available absolutely free of charge and besides the functions of the RAW-processor also performs the functions of a snapshot cataloguer.

Like the previous solution, Capture NX-D can correct images and displays curves with levels. In addition to RAW, the program can be used to work with TIFF and JPEG, as well as a bridge between the camera and the printer. Other useful functions include support for saving profiles with settings of the main parameters of the image (temperature, white balance, etc.).

Capture NX-D allows Nikon camera owners to convert and enhance RAW images for free, ensuring high-quality photos with customizable settings.

Graphical shell of the program is quite typical for RAW-processors, it consists of a toolbar, working environment and a window with a histogram. If desired, the user can display windows with parameters for all software tools. In general, this is an indispensable solution for Nikon camera owners who are passionate about photography or who do it professionally.

Capture NX-D is a powerful software for editing and managing digital photos. It is quite user-friendly when you get used to it, and provides a wide range of tools for adjusting and correcting photos. I especially like the Options Bar, which allows me to quickly access all the tools I need. The Live View mode is also very helpful for making precise adjustments. The Shadow/Highlight Adjustment tool is also very useful for revealing details in dark or bright areas of an image. I also find the Curves tool helpful for making subtle adjustments to the tonality of an image. The software also includes a number of filters for creative edits.
