Thanks JustinCase - very useful as was the previous one on Viveza 2

One thing that really bothers me about NIK is that in Nikon Capture NX2, one could keep an eye out for blown highlights.  The NIK plug in for Viveza 2 has no ability to check blown highlights as one makes control point adjustments, while Color Efex Pro does.  Argh!  Why?

I agree, it is a bit strange, also the fact that in Efex the window can be resized to match the screen, while it is not possible in the other plug ins.
DXO have stated that they will be upgrading the collection.
Maybe they have started from Efex?

Well Vittorio, I hope DXO makes good on it's promise, and fixes the lack of highlight clipping warning early on.  I use Viveza 2 for almost every picture, and it is due for some upgrades.
