Capture NX 1.1 released

Nikon today released Capture NX 1.1, an update to its photography software boasting increased performance, full support for Intel-based Macs, and optimization for Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system. Nikon says the update includes several usability updates based on software testing and customer feedback, including a simpler user interface with resizable palettes for histograms as well as curves & levels adjustments. Capture NX 1.1 works with JPEG and TIFF images, and features a patented U Point technology that enables photographers to enhance specific areas of a picture selectively without the use of masks, selection, or layers. The application also works with Nikon's RAW (NEF) format images, and inherits Nikon's RAW processing capabilities. Capture NX 1.1 is available as a digital download or as a full boxed version for $150. Current Capture NX users can upgrade for free, and upgrades from Capture 4 are priced at $90 for a limited time. Capture NX 1.1 requires Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later.
