Luminescence of Nature Photography (http://www.luminescentphoto.com) is pleased to announce the immediate release of a new e-Book tutorial by photographer Jason P. Odell, Ph.D. The Photographer's Guide to Capture NX2 (http://www.luminescentphoto.com/nx2guide.html) is a 400 page, interactive PDF tutorial and represents a comprehensive guide to Nikon Capture NX 2.0, Nikon's latest release of its powerful RAW converter and image editor application. The Photographer's Guide to Capture NX2 offers photographers what a standard user manual cannot-- clear explanations of how to use the myriad tools in a photo editing application to produce stunning, professional quality images quickly.
"Capture NX 2.0 offers significant advantages to the Nikon RAW shooter," says Dr. Odell. "The Photographer's Guide to Capture NX2 explains in plain detail how to leverage the new features
in NX 2.0 so that the average hobbyist can get up to speed in minutes."
The Photographer's Guide to Capture NX2 is a truly modern resource for the digital age. The digital PDF file is fully bookmarked and indexed, and includes live hyperlinks to Internet
resources. "I wanted to make this guide as user-friendly as possible", said Dr. Odell. In addition, photographers who purchase the Guide are able to download each of ten Nikon RAW files
to work alongside the examples in the eBook at their own pace. The Photographer's Guide to Capture NX2 contains numerous examples of how and when to use each of Capture NX 2.0's tools to
produce effects ranging from the subtle adjustment of tones to striking alterations to color and sharpness. Many of these effects are captured in a suite of ready-made settings presets
that users can install in their own copy of Capture NX2 and use in their own images.
One of the best-liked features in Dr. Odell's earlier guide to Capture NX 1.3 was the "recipes" section-- short "How-To" articles that illustrate how to make adjustments to the kind of
images that everyday photographers produce. The Photographer's Guide to Capture NX2 offers new recipes, including how to work with portraits, landscapes, and digital infrared images.
The Photographer's Guide to Capture NX2 is available immediately from the Luminescence of Nature Press Online Store as a digital download for a retail price of $27.99.
