Anyone here use Nikon NX-D to process RAW files? If so what do you think of it? Or is there something that's better/faster to use?

(Lightroom not an option, I bloody hate it!)

Nope!

You know I’m going to say LR.

Tried Nikon’s own once, didn’t find it at all intuitive but plenty of Ny-Kon purists love it.

I followed some articles in Nikon Owner magazine for a while, and it just seemed too much of a faff!!!!

The next person who says Lightroom will be killed with a rusty axe!

However, I took some photos of a film set today and it gave me a good chance to poke around in NX-D. Given that things aren't going work exactly the same as the C1 Pro I've used for 10+ years, after a bit of shoving windows around and finding what I wanted, it wasn't actually bad. The windows are a bit wasteful of valuable screen height, and controls that took one button C1 take two buttons, but overall I'm slightly impressed.

I just need to find out a few things, like how to apply a WB to several files, as the intuition is rather different and the icons are - in keeping with RAW processors since 2006 - 1 pixel big.

It's a free download so you may as well see what you think!
