I did not think I was throwing anything away. In fact the reverse. The
Nikon software does not allow you to bring the Raw .NEF file into PS without
doing some proprietry processing. I don't think it is possible to get all
the raw data into Tiff format using Nikon capture. (Therefore building a
profile using this method, is not as effective as the MacBibble method)
