Capture NX 2 is a full-featured non-destructive photo editing program that provides photographers powerful tools to quickly and easily edit their photographs. Choose the reduced-price Upgrade Version (Product Number 25386) which requires a valid serial number from version 1.x of Capture NX. You can selectively edit photographs without the need to manually outline or mask the area for editing.

Simply place a Selection Control Point anywhere on the photograph then choose from almost any adjustment such as D-Lighting, Unsharp Mask or Noise Reduction, while limiting the &quotreach&quot of that adjustment to just the selected area. Capture NX 2 features award-winning U Point technology for precision selection and application of enhancements without complicated selections or layer masks.

Designed to closely match the way photographers work with their images, Capture NX 2 is easy to learn and creates the highest quality results. Capture NX 2 adds an automatic retouch tool to its image editing toolbox allowing users to seamlessly remove blemishes, dust and other distracting elements from photographs while maintaining the integrity of the image.

With just a simple slider adjustment you can easily open up shadows or recover blown-out highlights. Highlight recovery is most effective for RAW (NEF) files however it will work with JPEG and TIFF files as well.
