D70 NEF vs. JPG quality..

I've used BreezeBrowser with good result on Canon pictures but with my D70 its a disaster. The pictures are resized to 550x365 otherwise they are untouched.

Very interesting comparison Peter. I think it's not fair to just say "converted with XXXX" and post a photo. Did you use the default settings, did you adjust the exposure, saturation, etc? Every converter used different default values for the different parameters.

There are two comparisons that you can (and should) do:

1) All default values for each program. Straight conversions with no sharpening, even after resizing.

2) Converters each set to produce their best results. This is harder as it requires that you actually know how to use the program in question, and how to set it up to yield the best results.

Cheers

I've used default values for each programs. No tweaking what so ever. NEF in JPEG oout...
