Viewing/Editing Embedded Information of Images

Labeling

Labeling is a function to classify images. There are labels from 1 to 9, and 0 is automatically assigned to non-labeled images. Each label is identified by its unique color.
Hints for using labels
You can, for example, add Label 1 to outdoor images and add Label 2 to indoor images. Then, you can select images with Label 1 only and display or print them. Also, if you display all images with Label 2, you can copy these images to another folder or delete them.
The labels added using ViewNX-i are compatible with those using Capture NX-D.

Rating

Rating is a function to rate the value or importance of images or movies on a scale of one to five using stars.
Hints for using ratings
You can show images with high ratings only, or you can set a range of ratings to show the images within that range. For example, you can show images with higher ratings and print only them.
Ratings assigned with ViewNX-i are compatible with "Rating" that supports XMP information set with Capture NX-D.

Metadata

Metadata is a variety of text information embedded in image files.
In the ViewNX-i window, you can show metadata embedded in image files. Some metadata can be edited and saved as a separate adjustment file.
Notes on labeling, rating and metadata editing
  • If you edit the rating, label, or metadata, the edited content will be saved as a separate adjustment file.
  • Labels of Capture NX version 1 are not compatible with those of ViewNX-i.
When simultaneously recorded RAW (NEF or NRW format) and JPEG images are displayed as separate files with shown on the Toolbar
If you apply a label/rating to one of the simultaneously recorded RAW image (NEF or NRW format) and JPEG image or edit the metadata of either of them, they may be handled as separate files.
For details on conditions for file separation, refer to "Handling of the Images Recorded Simultaneously".
