Reference: The Nikon Scan Applet
Saving and Opening Images
The image in the active image window can be saved under a
new name by selecting Save As… from the File menu. The
Save As dialog for your operating system will be displayed; after
navigating to the desired drive and folder, enter a name for the
image, and select a file type from the options available, then save
the image. Files saved in a format supported by Nikon Scan can
be opened in the Nikon Scan applet using the Open… option
in the File menu.
Choosing a File Type
Nikon Scan supports the following file types:
Format Description
NEF
NEF, or Nikon Electronic image Format, allows
information on curves, color balance, LCH set-
tings, and Unsharp Mask to be saved separately
from the image data. You can view the unmodi-
fied image data at any time by opening the image
in Nikon Scan and hiding changes to settings by
clicking the check mark at the top left corner of
the appropriate tool palette. NEF can be used
to scan images at bit depths of twelve or four-
teen bits, with settings in the Digital ICE Cubed
(Digital ICE
3
), Analog Gain, and Scanner Extras
palettes adjusted before the image is scanned.
You can then save the image in NEF format after
adjusting brightness, contrast, color balance, and
sharpness in the Nikon Scan applet. You can
later open the image, undo the changes or make
further adjustments as desired, and then save the
results in a different format and in a separate file,
repeating the process as often as necessary.
NEF is supported only in Nikon Scan and Nikon
Capture camera control software for Nikon D1
digital cameras.
Choosing a Compression Ratio
JPEG and PICT images can be compressed using JPEG compres-
sion, in which images are divided into blocks eight pixels on a
side and detail within each block selectively reduced. Although
raising the compression ratio decreases the file size, it also makes
the block pattern more visible and may result in noticeable loss
of detail (the actual effect depends on the output scale and the
type of subject). It is recommended that you save files at the
lowest compression ratio possible; if necessary, you can always
save them again at a higher compression ratio.
The compression ratio can be chosen using the compression
type menu in the Save As dialog. Five options are available, rang-
ing from Excellent Quality, which offers the lowest compres-
sion and highest image quality, to High Compression, which
offers the highest compression and lowest image quality.
