First download the Manual Viewer ( https://www.nikon.com.mt/en_MT/product/apps_software/manual-viewer-2 ) for your platform of choice. Then, you can download manuals for specific products.

You're gonna love it.

It is similar to LightRoom insofar as it provides asset management, with some modest photo editing capability.

It is database driven and can be used for any kind of "document" (photo, spreadsheet, notes, etc.).

It allows assigning keywords but also creating a database record.

Very similar to ACDSEE,, from what I understand. If you're interested, might be worth a trial run.
I can vouch for the people who support it.

I really can't say for sure since I've only run it on Windows.)
It does look that way but there is the "If you have any problems or questions, please contact our Order Desk.".

I've also been using it, for about 12 years. I use it to track every kind of document, not just photos and I am very pleased with it.

That is interesting information. I am going to double check with our camera store, as well as e-mailing the question to the Skylum team. Perhaps the owner just wasn't that familiar with Luminar.


I have had no problem opening my Nikon NEF files in Luminar (currently using v4). I use it standalone to directly edit my photos. I've also at times used ViewNX-i to review a series of photos and convert selected ones to TIFF.

Also, since I use ThumbsPlus Pro from http://cerious.com/ for catalogging and keywording, I don't use LR.

The thing that everyone seems to miss is that mirror-up turns off the voltage to the sensor.

If you use mirror-up, it's impossible to get an image.


I use MUP on my D7500 whenever I'm on a tripod or when attached to a telescope. I also use a mechanical remote trigger.

It works as advertised. Once you rotate the dial to the MUP position, you still have live view and all other functionality. The only difference from non-MUP shooting is when you trigger the shutter the mirror flips up out of the way and you need to trigger it again to capture the image. Of course, it won't work very well for birds in flight.

Yes sorry, I did not pick up on it, my apologies.

I read it as you accidentally placed a period and needed more clarification.


Cheers!


I see. That makes sense. Thank you, John.

Thank you, Linda.

I also note that the "And how!" was followed by an exclamation point and not a question mark as in "And how?", which would have implied a very different response.

Regional differences, I guess. But, it's all good.

How what?

- They have a Canon camera.
- They aren't sure if RAW processing will be right for them.
- The software is available free to download from Canon's website (so they do not need to invest any money)
- I could have pushed the software I use, but it requires more time investment, and a desire to dive into post processing.

I decided to recommend software that would help them understand post processing of RAW files with a software program that has less of a learning curve than pretty much any other software out there, and it's free.

Please let me know if you need any clarification on your question.
How what? br br - They have a Canon camera. br - ... (show quote)


I was emphatically agreeing with you. Years ago, I cut my teeth on Digital Photo Professional 4.
After moving to the Nikon realm, I now use ViewNXi or D.

The term, "And how" may be a colloquialism you are not accustomed to.

I would personally recommend to start with the free software that is available from Canon (DPP) for your camera. It's relatively user-friendly, and gives you enough flexibility to be creative without having a massive learning curve to deal with.


And how!

Several years ago, I installed a 256gb SSD and moved all data to a 2nd, "D", internal 1tb drive that I use for non-OS files.

"C" is for Software; "D" is for Data.

In addition, I use separate 4tb HDD for backing up both C & D.

This "scheme" has worked very well for over time.
