The NEF advantage
NEF (Nikon Electronic Format) satises ever-changing photographic
needs with extended range and versatility. The RAW data contained
within each NEF le is never altered, regardless of how many times the
le is opened and new renditions saved.
Highly versatile photo editing solution
Nikonʼs new Capture NX software provides easier access to powerful
and visually intuitive enhancement tools that help photographers tap the
full potential of NEF images.
U Point
TM
technology
Patented U Point
TM
technology allows easy selection of image areas
according to points of interest, and turns the application of effects and
enhancements into an intuitive photographic process. U Point
TM
combines with the extensive Nikon Capture toolbox to offer an
unsurpassed set of features for NEF images as well as JPEG and TIFF
les from most any digital camera.
Lens correction tools
A trio of original tools help expand imaging possibilities for a wider
variety of lenses by compensating for lens effects such as vignette in
corners, pincushion and barrel distortion, or color fringing.
Selective tools
Capture NX offers a range of selective tools for applying over 25
enhancement styles, including the Brush, Lasso, Marquee, Gradient and
Fill/Remove tools.
Additional features
Other tools that enhance Capture NXʼs unique capabilities include:
Browser, Batch Processing, Edit List, Red-Eye Reduction, Version and
Noise Reduction and other useful functions.
Camera Control Pro (optional)
With Camera Control Pro, photographers can remotely operate and
adjust most settings of the D80. And for a further refinement of
workow, thereʼs also the option to download images directly to the
computerʼs hard disk during shooting.
PictureProject (supplied)
PictureProjectʼs intuitive user interface
provides fast and easy access to
powerful tools for organizing, editing
and sharing images. Pictures are
automatically imported when the D80
is connected to a compatible computer.
Mail, Slideshow, CD/DVD burning, Auto Enhance and other creative
functions are readily available via handy buttons. Pictures can be
organized into collections using simple drag ʻnʼ drop operation, and can
be quickly located by name, keyword, or date. Design templates make it
easy to produce prints, tailor images to e-mail, or layout several images
on a page to produce creative album layouts. PictureProject is provided
with every purchase of a Nikon D80.
Hi-Speed USB compatible
The D80ʼs USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface enables fast data transfer
speeds from camera to computer.
PictBridge support
Pictures can be printed as simply as
connecting the D80 to any PictBridge
compatible printer via the supplied USB
cable and giving the command. In-camera
page setup support makes printing
easier while also affording ner control
over the results.
