![]() ![]() Open both the NEF file and the ViewNX generated JPG in Photoshop and they should not look identical. The JPG file created by ViewNX should look the same regardless of what viewer is being used, provided the NEF file is being viewed with ViewNX. If the NEF file is being viewed in ViewNX and the JPG file created in ViewNX is being viewed in Photoshop they should look the same. The OP does not say what application was used to view both the NEF and the JPG images once the JPG file was created. The generated image should however look almost identical to the JPG image generated in-camera – there is a possibility for some extremely minor variations due the floating-point math used in the computer. When first viewing a NEF file in ViewNX the image displayed is the imbedded jpeg, ViewNX generates a new image from the NEF data if the RAW button is clicked. Nikon in their seemingly infinite lack of wisdom has chosen not to support 64-bit operating systems odd seeing as the majority of system now come with four or more Giga-bytes of RAM and require a 64-bits OS. I then opened them in Windows Photo Viewer and still the JPG looks identical to the NEF not surprising seeing as the Windows Photo Viewer uses a codec from FastPictureViewer that duplicates Nikon’s own codec. ![]() The aRGB did have a bit richer look to the colors than the sRGB frame. Then I thought, would the color space make a difference? So I shot a frame in both sRGB and aRGB and converted them using ViewNX, and the results were that the JPG looked exactly like the NEF. ![]()
