Good news for all you Nikon lovers, the company has just released the updates to its popular Capture NX software application and the Capture NX 1.1 is now available for both Mac and Windows Users. Vista users can upgrade too and here are some new features as listed on the Nikon website.

# Compatibility with Microsoft Windows Vista (32-bit) version has been added.

# An "Apply Settings" checkbox has been added to the "Batch Process" and "Watched Folder" panels in the "Settings Options" dialog displayed for batch processing

# When the "Apply Settings" checkbox is cleared (not checked), batch processing and watched folder operations can be performed without using a settings file.

# An "Advanced Option" with a 'show/hide' triangle has been added to the "Select File Format" portion of the "Batch Process" and "Watched Folder" panels in the "Setting Options" dialog displayed for batch processing.

# FIle names and the date and time that files were saved is now displayed in the "Log" panel of the "Processing Queue" dialog when a batch process is processed is initiated.

# When the "Open With..." option in the "File" menu is selected, Capture NX will create a TIFF file with the same name and saved to the same folder, as the current image.

# The following dialogs can now be enlarged:

* Levels and Curves dialog
* LCH... dialog
* Photo Info Palette
