Nikon Capture NX2 Batch Processing, Applying a series of enhancements to a folder of images

Batch Processing

Batch processing is the automatic application of one or more enhancements to a series of images. Typically, a photographer will use a batch process to apply a predefined series of adjustments to several images at once. Capture NX 2 contains even more methods of batch processing than before. You can select a folder of images and select a series of enhancements to apply to those images, you can add an XMP/IPTC preset to a series of images, you can set up a live edit batch process, or you can set up a watched folder.
