[QUOTE="nickt, post: 102652, member: 4923"] The underexposure from active-d lighting is slight. Maybe a 1/2 stop, maybe no exposure change under some conditions. But I think Lightroom ignores all in camera picture settings. That will cause an even greater disparity between raw files viewed in NX vs viewed in Lightroom. So in View NX, the raw will look just like the jpg if you are shooting raw+jpg. In Lightroom, the raw will most likely not look like the separate jpg depending what in-camera picture controls are applied to the jpg. To add to this confusion, some picture viewers might be showing you the embedded jpg thumnail in the raw file. Lightroom uses the embedded jpg when you first import files and sometimes you can catch the change as it renders the raw file. This made me crazy at first as sometimes I would catch my RAW file darkening up before my eyes. I think this was more noticeable on a large import batch where the computer was slow to catch up. To see this in a dramatic way, shoot some raw+jpg shots with B&W applied in camera. In View NX, both RAW and jpg will be black and white. In Lightroom, the RAW will be color and the jpg as b&w, but you will see the raw as b&w on the import screen and maybe for an instant the first time you view it. [/QUOTE]
