Re: Disagree 100%

Hi,

I'm using Nikon Capture and have done so for the past couple of years editing RAW images but these D300 RAW files compared to the jpg's is just mind boggling. The jpgs are clearly superior to my best efforts at editing RAW high ISO pics.

Which software? If you process in NX, or convert in ViewNX, the
in-camera settings are used exactly as they are to create the JPG.
At worst the result should the same, often it is a bit better.

All bets off with ACR, or other 3rd party, as they don't pay
attention to the the in-camera settings or render as does Nikon.

Well after several hours trying to get the same result from the RAW
file to produce the results of the jpg I must say I've failed. Tried
loads of different settings, sharpening, noise reduction etc... but I
still believe at high ISO you can't get the same image quality
processing a RAW file compared to a jpg straight out of the camera.

I would like to see some shots at ISO 3200 & 6400 were people have
taken a RAW + Fine and show the superior quality of the RAW file
against the jpg because at the moment I am not seeing it.
