Today Nikon Capture NX arrived. Soon I will install it. Then I'll need your
phone number. Or, maybe I'll figure it out.

I find it very easy to use. If you're not shooting with a D300 or D3, I
think you're better staying with version 1.2 rather than the newer 1.3,
which adds a couple of features that take advantage of the new camera's
abilities. I think $25 well spent would be to download Jason Odell's eBook.
It will help get you up to speed and become very proficient in short order.

There's no downside with 1.3.

Actually, there is. It's well documented. Many, including myself, have
reverted back to 1.2 after using 1.3.

Yes, I've read the endless threads on "Nikonians," too. For me, 1.3 is
working fine.

Thanks much! I greatly appreciate it.

I'll load it tomorrow, when I've got a whole day free to mess with it. I
can't tell what version it is from the box, the manuals, or the CD.

Then by God, no one on earth should have any trouble with it.

Only on Vista is there no problems. ;_

You also seem to have no problems with Vista, while (a great) many others
do. I guess it must be user error?

I don't do a lot of "post-processing" with the photos I take, as I like
them to look like what I was looking at when I took the photo. Perhaps
if I were into surreal photography and used a lot of heavy duty features
in NX, I might run into problems, but I don't, and I haven't. So sorry.
Heck, I have Photoshop CS3 and another high-end post-processor, too, and
I don't use their features much, either. My feeling is that if it isn't
there in the viewfinder, I don't want to see it on the print or on the
screen. Others feel differently about that aspect of photography.

As for Vista, no, I haven't run into any really serious problems. My use
of it has not been "error free," and I've never made the claim it was.
But any significant problems I have had with the OS have been resolvable
without having to make any great effort.

Many of the problems users have with VISTA come from either installing
it over an existing OS, or running it with not enough memory. Also, I
don't run any "ancient" software. That helps, too.
