[QUOTE="Doddery, post: 11345, member: 3887"] [URL="http://nikonites.com/members/alokchitri.html"][B][COLOR=black]Alokchitri[/COLOR][/B][/URL] With NX2 there a lots of different ways of using the program that basically anything goes. I always shoot NEF so my work list would be: Check the white balance settings Remove any in camera sharpening, contrast etc. Check for lost highlights and shadows, make adjustments in quick fix Use automatic lens adjustment Then I come down to the main area and Straighten horizon Crop if need be Erase anything that should not be there Adjust brightness / contrast Adjust colours Add a small amount of USM sharpening Save the file under a new name as a NEF If I need to convert to JPG I now do it, resize, and add more sharpening as the resize and conversion softens the photograph. You now have a photograph. You can achieve a Grad filter by using (???), now I do not have NX on this computer, using the gradient button? You can achieve a Polarizing effect as well but that is complicated. Also use View NX, it is free from Nikon to browse all the files. You searched in the wrong place. Go to [URL="http://www.youtube.com"]YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.[/URL] and search on there. There are hundreds of videos showing how to master the program, some even by Nikon and their employees.
