Nikon ViewNX 1.5 released
by eNoBlog on Nov.02, 2009, under News
I have been meaning to try out ViewNX, version 1.5, and today, I finally got the chance to take it out for a spin. As is my usual practice, I uninstalled my previous version (1.3), rebooted my PC, and installed version 1.5, then rebooted again. It’s just a little ritual I’ve developed after reading about the troubles people run into with ViewNX installations.
So far, everything seems to work as expected. A bug I reported previously with version 1.4 appears to have been resolved. Here’s the blurb at the Nikon USA download site: “An issue that sometimes resulted in decreased resolution, depending upon the pixel count entered, of image copies created using the ‘Convert Files’ function has been resolved.”
At any rate, no huge improvements with this version, but for those of us who have gotten some mileage out of ViewNX, a few minutes to upgrade seems to be a safe if not worthwhile effort.
Updates:
Nov-04-2009 — More problems are being reported with this latest version, but for the Mac OS.
Nov-02-2009 — At least one user is reporting problems with operation under a 64-bit environment.
