Crop
Crops are not applied to the original image data and can be changed at any time by clicking the button in the toolbar. This also applies in the case of images cropped using ViewNX 2 or ViewNX-i.
Crops are applied when images are converted to JPEG or TIFF. When NEF/NRW (RAW) images cropped in Capture NX 2 are opened in Capture NX-D, the crop is treated as the entire image; to select a crop that extends outside these bounds, click the revert button to restore the original image and then select the desired crop.
