Nikon pictureproject for windows 10
Clicking the "Keyword" tab in the left panel lets you create keywords and assign them to images. The main screen shows an array of thumbnails, and you can mark individual pictures as being tagged for quick reference, protected, or hidden. PictureProject is a reasonably competent organizing tool, you can assign keywords to images, tag interesting ones for easier recall, and group them into multiple "collections." (For instance, one collection could be "Family Birthdays," and another could be "Photos of Katie." Pictures from Katie's birthday could logically belong to both collections.) Images can belong to more than one collection, making it easy to create multiple groupings. (The screenshots below are all from the Windows version of the program.): Here's a brief look at PictureProject's interface and a few of its features. I don't normally review bundled software in my camera reviews, but given that many of the target customers for the Nikon D50 may never reach beyond PictureProject, will devote some time to it here. Also, Nikon has significantly enhanced its feature set in version 1.5 (the version shipped with the D50), so it now presents a much more complete set of capabilities for novice users who don't want to delve into a separate imaging application. That said, PictureProject does have some nice features for organizing your images, and I liked its email integration quite a bit.
As it is, I'm afraid that PictureProject puts the D50 at something of a disadvantage relative to the software package that ships with Canon's Digital Rebel, which includes Adobe's excellent Photoshop Elements right in the box with the camera. Granted, Nikon wants to protect sales of their high-end Capture 4 software program, but I do think PictureProject could have been made a good bit more capable without treading on Capture 4's toes. Some of my negative reaction to PictureProject may be that I'm just not the sort of user it's intended for: It's clearly aimed at novices and first-time digicam owners, so it's long on automation of file import and simple organizational tools, but rather short on any sort of workflow to support effective use of NEF files, or for efficiently processing large numbers of images. (Unlike some other reviewers, I do think it's a bit of a step up from Nikon View.) My initial reaction was disappointment over how clunky it was to use with NEF files, and its rather lightweight features, but as I spent more time playing with it, I found myself liking it quite a bit more. Nikon had talked up PictureProject quite a bit prior to my first seeing the original 1.0 version, so I approached it with a pretty positive mindset. PictureProject is a relatively new piece of software for Nikon (introduced with the D70 in 2004), replacing the previous Nikon View. Both packages are compatible with both PC and Mac computers, big kudos to Nikon for that. The D50 ships with Nikon's PictureProject software, as well as a 30-day free trial of Nikon Capture, their higher-end program for much more extensive manipulation of NEF-format images. > :Included Software Review First Posted:, Updated: Nikon D50 By: Dave Etchells and Shawn Barnett Nikon develops an "entry-level" SLR loaded with features for less than $750.
