Well I find CC fine and value for money - except the performance of LR seems to deteriorate. I would say if your hardware is up to driving the software then CC is fine - but then I do not see Adobe as some venomous beast, I just see it as an outfit that has gone in a direction most will...

Excellent shot. Reminds me of how lucky I am to live here on The Broads.

I had a similar experience.

Have done no research but bet that in general a partex deal obtains the higher value - no good if you want cash of course.

That seems clear enough to me GN :-)

I used WEX recently. They gave me the highest valuation of the three or so I contacted, explaining it was via a credit note. Upon taking my kit in for evaluation they gave me what was offered. Well pleased.

How things change eh :-) I used to drive a car without ABS because to buy one with was too expensive.

Exactly. Except I shoot raw and the ACR module excels imo. I rarely use PS when all I need is to tweak an already reasonable photo.

It is in my case - I am rarely into heavily edited stuff, although I agree some of it looks good, I just like to replicate what I see (give or take). Either way my comment still stands: PS is not usually required as LR has some fine tools via ACR. :-)

And the processing power of PS is not always required. It is rarely that I leave LR for PS. I do try to get my pics right in camera.

No doubt LR is impressive and I do spend a lot of time in it - ACR is a great raw editor, especially when one wants to be selective.

CNX-D interprets Nikon nef files well and being able to work "in software" with the picture controls is a great help. Many hate CNX-D though, and certainly it could be better. It does a good job, but it lacks the power of ACR in the area of selective editing.

C1 vs LR, the debate that will rage forever. Personal choice will always be the deciding factor :-)

I use LR but as CNX-D/View NXI mature I find I get better results if I do the initial raw editing in the Nikon software. That said, ACR is much more powerful, it just does not seem to interpret the NEF data in the same way that CNX-D does. Therefore I tend to do the initial edit in CNX-D and...

View NX-I version 1.2.0 has editing. You can also try Capture NX-D version 1.4.0
