In my opinion Capture does a better job of initial adjustment to a photo (NEF or JPEG) than photoshop and it is much easier to use. There are no masks or complicated steps to adjust sharpness, hue, saturation, etc. You just click on a spot you want corrected and adjust the corresponding sliders that appear. Two downsides: You have to set your photo printer as the default- there is no printer list (why I don't know at this stage). Second, there are no tools to heal or make other effects as with PS. But that is not the purpose of Capture. It is designed to work with other programs by first preparing your raw or jpeg, and it does a great (and best of all) easy job of it far better than Photoshop alone.

I originally purchased this to work with my D50... But when I got rid of that and upgraded to my D80, it became useless... Now I need to purchase an even more expensive Capture NX just to make it work with my new camera.

A good product if it works with your camera. It was nice that it included both a Mac AND a Windows version on the CD.

If you own a Nikon camera capable of RAW format - you need this product. Opens NEF files fast - controls intuitive - direct to PC capture - very good with novices. Recommended good value purchase

It doesn't get the job done, if you're looking for usable digital photo editing, etc.

Excellent product, very happy with it.
