Nikon Capture NX is one of only a handful of image editing software programs designed specifically for a brand of cameras—and the well-developed at that. Offering Nikon users a breadth of tools and features with which to hone, craft, restore and improve photos and images, Nikon Capture NX stands out head-and-shoulders above for its finished results that easily and convincingly lean heavily towards the “professional” side.

Before we get to the long-form critique, the following are the strengths and weakness that stood out while using the program.

Strengths

  • LCH Editor
  • Intuitive Color Control Points
  • Auto Retouch Brush
  • User-Friendly Interface with Optional Quick Fix Workflow

Weaknesses

  • Limited Compatibility with non-Nikon RAW image formats
  • Mixed Results with JPEG and Other File Formats
  • Limited Paint/Image Design Features

Nikon Capture NX 2 is very precise in what it does and who it can or should be used by. That said, Nikon Capture NX 2 is an excellent value—when it comes to Nikon users with little need or interest for image design and layering features. For users of other camera brands and with a greater need or interest in image design and layering tools, Nikon Capture NX 2 has little value for you.
