![]() ![]() I figured that since I am already somewhat familiar with what comes with my cameras this would be a best route for me. ![]() I am pretty much a total newbie as far as how much a program like this can really do. Let me start by saying that the only post processing software that I have ever used is the PDCU software that came with my Pentax digital cameras. Still working with 10.14.2 - Mojave.Apart from a blackout with LCH, all the rest seems fine.I just purchased SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro 8 a few days ago. Nikon Capture NX2 (Version 2.4.7) works with Mac OSX 10.9.5. You still have a working NEF, but the work you have done can only be seen in 2. Yes - but CNX-D just shows you the original NEF. Vintage, I just checked and I can open up my NX2 NEFs in View NXi or NX-D. ![]() Thanks carl-mania for the suggestion I read the posts but they didn't help. Vintage 1953 & wackymoomin edited this topic 55 months ago. Leaves you open to a problem if it disappears entirely, surely? I am surprised people are still saving edits into NEF in CNX-2. Easier to pass a TIFF to Photoshop, or Affinity, or CNX-2, or whatever. I tried Pro 9 but found those tools a bit ham fisted (or perhaps that's me), so I wouldn't pay extra for them. Same as Pro but just without the local adjustment tools. If you 'Search this group's discussions' and type 'Sierra' in the search box you might find something that makes sense. I don't use Mac myself, but I remember that there have been several posts regarding CNX2 and Sierra. If any of you are using the above without any problems could you suggest what I could do to prevent the spinning beach ball. I am using CNX2 on a Mac with Sierra, after using it for about 10 mins I get the spinning beach ball and have to quit NX2 and restart. And I will continue to use CNX2 until the wheels fall off altogether. In this case, I use a similar workflow to DougKlassen - but with CNX-D as the 'front end'. I particularly require the local editing which was provided by the 'U point' technology in CNX2, and note that this has now been included in CNX-D.Īt present I can work almost exclusively in CNX2, with the exception of a recently acquired D810. I am not familiar with Developer Studio Pro 9 - but very interested as to how it compares with CNX-D. If I understand correctly, CNX-D itself is a Silkypix 'raw' convertor with a Nikon 'skin'. I did try a few other RAW processors like DXO, On1, and Capture 1 and may yet go back to one of those when my Silkypix trial period expires. I don't see any issues with the quality Silkypix output but I'm addicted to control points and "1 piece" file saving in NEF formate so continue my attachment to NX2. Right now I just open the NEFs in Silkypix, make some basic adjustments to exposure compensation, white balance, maybe saturation, the pass the file directly to NX2. Vintage1953 noted, the translation of nomenclature in the interface is a bit clunky but I could live with it if I had to. Anyway, Silkypix seems to do a decent job of reading the NEF files and is fast enough. ![]() For some reason NXD won't install on my machine and Nikon has been of no help with that and I need an interim solution for my workflow. I've been working a bit with SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro 9 since I got my new Nikon D500. There are a lot of color styles, film simulations, to choose from, and in the "Fine Color Controller" you can get any colours you like.Īnd, Yes, I have tried DXO, and I prefer Silkypix output. You have to correct CA semi-manually, unlike the Nikon software. "Highlight controller" does something slightly different than it suggests. Highlights? - reduce the exposure - add some "dodge/color burn" (D lighting equivalent). It is pretty simple, though, particularly for an ex CNX-D user. Personally, in 7, I create a TIFF, and then do the local stuff in Photoshop (CNX-D the same).īiggest problem with Silkypix is that they don't/won't get a native English speaker to go through their instructions, documentation, and tutorials. The main difference in Pro is that it has some, local edit capability. Mainly as I am shooting Olympus, but I have used it for NEF. I have been using Silkypix Developer Studio (not Pro) 7 for a while. Spondylitismd edited this topic 55 months ago.
