I beg to differ between d-lighting and active d-lighting. Both will be applied in jpegs and tagged as processing information to raw files but "active" does also influence the exposure metering / adjustment in order to optimize the dynamic range for the d-lighting process.Read this on photo.net forums: " "D-lighting" can be duplicated more
or less, by using the Fill Light function in LR or ACR."
Sorry Michael,Two things. First, I loved your website, second, many thanks for your
terrific research. Can you please tell me when you would use D2XMODE
111? All the best, and thanks in adavance. --

I'm curious here. Do you ever plan to utilize a jpeg file in this hobby. Or do you only deal with nef files? Cause if you do deal with jpegs than its worth learning what picture control setting you like.But it's only a hobby, and I only process images I intend to print.
I think 3rd party software doesnt see the picture controls at all and just opens a raw file as its programmed to open it. So if you select vivid vs neutral the 3rd party softerware opens the raw file the same way.Do nothing unless you view your NEFs in View NX or Capture NX. Far asand that picture controls in general do nothing when shooting RAW.
I know, third party software does not recognize pictures control
settings except for defaults. Am I wrong anyone?>
I shot JPG originally, until a poorly-selected White Balance issue cost me a picture that I would have really liked to have had. I do use JPGs currently, which I post on my pbase account, but after converting from NEF with my workflow.I'm curious here.

Dont get me wrong, I'm just trying to be helpful and understand better. But couldn't you shoot jpeg and raw (perhaps when its not an important event) and if there's no fabulous shots or no shots ruined by bad WB, just delete the raw files. Youd save on hard drive space and its faster work flow. Also if I want to email a picture of my kids to someone, I dont have to first start editing a raw photo in nikonnx, I can grab the jpeg and just email it (window will compress/downsize the file). What do you think? Editiing every pic in nikonnx can get tedious for me.I shot JPG originally, until a poorly-selected White Balance issue

I don't use Capture NX because I just don't like it. I use Bibble and CS2, which converts things fairly fast and well for me. I have done the 600-image vacation conversion for my family, but when it comes time to make my own prints, I work with each one (that I will print) individually.Dont get me wrong, I'm just trying to be helpful and understand

No problem, I didn't take your comments negatively.Dont get me wrong, I'm just trying to be helpful and understand
