[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 452424, member: 12496"] OK, sorry, I can't comment on Capture, I don't use it. But it seems the wrong philosophy to transfer to TIF or PSD or JPG (for other than just a copy for external viewing use), because then you have lost all of your lossless editing advantages. The raw NEF and XMP files should remain our original master archive copy. You were lamenting Lightroom, and I was addressing your "what options to retain Nikon colors is there?" By "Nikon colors", I assumed the profiles, like maybe Vivid. Which Lightroom does not copy like Nikon does. But no matter, actually the big idea of raw is to wait and look at it, and then decide then what it actually needs, and what we can see will help best. Setting we set months ago have little meaning to the actual scene in front of us today. :) And I was thinking that it should be easy in Lightroom to get any result you want. I was thinking you might be overlooking that Adobe Raw provides Camera Profiles to match the camera, if desired. They are just not an automatic match as like in Nikon software (but they can be an automatic default, same automatic default as we probably treat the camera settings).
