[QUOTE="hrstrat57, post: 344375, member: 27586"] I might have stumbled upon a workflow. I would much rather spend money on fast glass than on slow software.....and time taking pics and living life vs. agonizing over expensive complicated computer stuff. My take, not meaning to offend anyone I know many folks love their computers as much as their Nikon gear! I import from CF into Picasa. I then open the folder (always start with the word RAW so I can find it quickly) I manipulate the pics to where I like them, rename them and drop them into a named folder. Then I hit batch processing on that folder and voila! The folder appears in Picasa exactly as I manipulated them. Probably not perfect but it is cheap. $0 Again, I really like how the Nikon capture NX-D emulates perfectly the camera settings on my D300/D700. Near zero learning curve. Many features and functions of the program need to be played with and learned of course but so far I am super happy. The Nikon 70-200 VR 1 2.8 my buddy is trying to dump on me could be in range based on zero cash spent on the computer.... :) [/QUOTE]
