Capture NX2 question

Stacey I believe the following site explanations about Capture NX2 might be helpful for you:

• NX 101 - A first course in using Nikon's Capture NX2 (index/overview)
  

See there especially these topics about:

• Understanding Color and Gamma (how color is seen, recorded, and displayed)
  
• NX uses a gamma encoded color space, but yet Capture NX fails gamma aware tests
  

Some of the parts in Capture NX2 are a little bit confusing implemented, especially those which deal with profile handling and color spaces etc. Thus it's often also a try and error approach when trying out more advanced settings.

For printing images I would also probably use a more ICC-aware color management printing software, maybe "Qimage" or the like. Though here you then best use a complete profiled workflow, with color profiled monitor, cam and printer, so things look afterwards printed also nearly the way you saw it on screen.

Good luck!
