I will work on that. I need to go out and shoot some low light photos and get a few good examples of noise and do a couple tests so it may take me a few days to complete. Thanks for the video idea. I appreciate it.
Hello. I have noticed that when I export images from NX Studio, these sharpness adjustments do not get applied. All other adjustments (cropping, contrast, saturation, etc.) do get applied, so that the exported file looks like the full-screen display in NX Studio, but the sharpness adjustments you demonstrate here do not. I don't know if this is a recent bug (using the latest version of the software, currently 1.7.1) or if it's been an ongoing problem. I wondered if you had noticed it. This is regardless of exported format (TIFF, JPG, etc.). If you have seen this, or know of a setting somewhere that needs to be changed, I'd appreciate hearing about it. Thank you.
In most photo editors, if you bring the color saturation all the way down, the photo will change to black and white. With NX Studio, unfortunately, you cannot bring the saturation down low enough to make the image completely black and white. You can download GIMP for free, and pull the saturation down all the way, and then export it to a TIFF and you will be able to open the image in NX Studio again.
I actually found a way to convert a color photography into black and white in NX Studio. I just made a video on it. The function is a bit hidden, but not hard to find if you know where it is. The video is at: ruclips.net/video/A5RKZB0WAjc/видео.html
I find that the images from my D850 are so noisy, even at 100 ISO, sharpening is not an option. If saved as tiff the noise is reduced, but NEF or jpg, and it is like a Sandstorm. Worst Camera I have ever owned. The D800 and D810 were not like this.
If I were having that issue I'd send it in to be evaluated, there's either something dramatically wrong with your specific D850 or something else is happening to the files on your card or your PC by the time you look at them. I've shot with the D1x, D200, D2x, D300, D700, D3x, D800, and now the D850 and it produces by far the cleanest most flexible files I've ever worked with out of any camera. Even at ISO 5000-8000 I'm finding very little need for noise reduction in post on my wildlife photos, and amazing shadow recovery. I've even gotten useable results at 18000. On the D800 the highest ISO I really got useable results from was 10000 and in that case black and white conversion helped. Do you have samples of these issues, have you figured it out since?
@@matthewcullen7106 I got rid of the D850, and am now using a Z9. It does things differently, overall less noise at High ISO, but the Artifacts are more noticeable. Picture Controls defaults are different, better, and can be applied to the D850 images in NX Studio.
@@pjimmbojimmbo1990 I've really been liking the new NX Studio, it seems far better optimized than Capture NX ever was and runs great on my PC. I have tried using the new picture controls on the D850 vs the camera specific ones and there is a noticeable difference. Also been experimenting with the DxO Pure RAW plugin in Lightroom and it's really pretty impressive at getting clean results out of noisy high ISO images while keeping detail, does better than I can manage manually. Haven't had a chance to use a Z9 yet but I'd love to at some point.
@@matthewcullen7106 It's a Camera, It is quite Solid, except for the Lens Mount. That is held on by 4 very small screws that really can't take much Torque/Weight, those screws will pull out of the main Camera Frame, destroying it. If feels smaller than the D850 w/grip, to the point where my the Palm of my Right Hand keeps hitting the Vertical Shutter Release while trying to view the Pictures, which made me think the Camera had Poltergeists, until I figured out what was happening. The Release on the D850's grip was further away. and never made contact. There is a learning curve going from a DSLR to a Mirrorless, but I can see some upsides, and a few downsides.
@@matthewcullen7106 I no longer have the D850, it made 2 trips to Nikon, and it was still a Problem Child. I traded it in on a Z9, it too has it's own Issues, and I still find more Noise than I like, perhaps it is not Noise, but Artifacts, they appear to be worse than on the D850. The Z9 can focus, something the D850 I had, could NEVER get right. I do feel sorry the Poor Bastard who ends up with it.

Thank you for teaching us about Nikon NX Studio.
Your videos are very useful.
Glad it was helpful!
thank you! it was my first time in nx studio and this really helped me out :)
Great video well explained
Glad you liked it!
Please consider making a video showing how to use the Noise tools. Thanks for your clear videos.

Thank you
Do you have a video that teaches correcting chromatic aberration ?
As always thanks so much for the nx info I was Wondering if you could give us some onsite on how to edit black and white images thanks for your time.

@@PhotoBlue ok thanks for the feedback and your informative vids.

@@PhotoBlue Thanks so much!
first klick off sharpness before using unsharpen mask
Needs more detail to be useful.
