Capture NX 2 easy-to-use software lets you make intuitive photo
enhancements which are immediately visible on your monitor. Simply place
the Control Point on the area that you want to edit and U Point
Technology will analyze color elements such as hue, saturation and
brightness, as well as recognize similar areas where an edit would best
be applied.This technology powers the entire Capture NX 2 series of
Control Points: Color Control Points, the all-new Selection Control
Points, White/Black/Neutral Control Points and Red-Eye Control Points.
With Capture NX 2, there's no need to deal with selection tools, layers
or lengthy training.
Color Control Point:
Enhancements for hue, brightness and saturation are as simple as placing
a Color Control Point on your image, then adjusting the length of the
sliders. For example, Color Control Points are remarkably convenient for
changing the color of flowers to better effect against green
surrounding foliage.
Selection Control Point:
This new function enables you to apply enhancements such as Unsharp Mask
or D-Lighting to a specific area with just a click of the mouse. There
is no need for precision selection or masks - the Selection Control
Point recognizes the areas you want to modify. The enhancement effect
can easily be adjusted, allowing you to apply your chosen effect as you
would with intuitive masking.
Auto Retouch Brush:
To simply achieve more natural-looking results, Auto Retouch Brush lets
you remove dust spots on an image using a mouse click and stroke to
match the surrounding color and tones. This can also be used to remove
facial blemishes, imperfections on flowers, or other unwanted objects
within the frame.
Shadow/Highlight Adjustments:
Using the slider at [Quick Fix], you can adjust shadows by [Shadow Adjust] and blown out highlights by [Highlight Adjust].
Workspaces:
Four workspaces are provided: Browser, Metadata, Multi-Purpose and Edit,
and your window composition can be easily switched among them.
Quick Fix:
A combination of frequently used tools including [Level and Tone Curve],
[Exposure Compensation], [Contrast], [Highlight Protection], [Shadow
Protection] and [Saturation] in a single window.
Simultaneous opening of multiple settings:
You can open multiple image processing settings at the same time and make parallel process adjustments of multiple details.
