Folks:
After processing a photo using both Photoshop (elements 3) and a trail version of Nikon Capture (from my D70), I have noticed that in the shadow areas, in particular a tall clump of grass, the definition is noticeably better in the printed copy done with Nikon Capture. It doesn’t matter how much I sharpen in Photoshop, the shadow areas with viewable detail are clumpier and less defined than the same shadow areas done with Nikon Capture.
Even working in full 16 bit (as far as can be done in
Elements) does not make a difference (even though I am aware the printer only handles 8 bit). I’ve used up a lot of ink and paper, and in every case, Nikon Capture just seems to handle those shadows better.
Is this typical? Ken
