Exposure Compensation |
Why so important: Adjusting exposure under 'Develop' / 'Quick Fix' is so important, instead
of using other Adjustments, because of how
Capture NX handles NEF dynamic range.
If you have blown highlights in your
photo, you must recover via exposure compensation (no other Adjustment can recover).
Using View / Show Lost Highlights: Using
'Show Lost Highlights'
under the View menu can assist you in determining the correct exposure
for your photo. It will show you visually if you have any highlights that
are 'lost' (color channel value maxed out, or set to 255).
Using Exposure Compensation: You will find 'Exposure Compensation'
in the Edit List under 'Develop' / 'Quick Fix'.
Example: You can change the exposure from -2EV to +2EV and changes affect
the entire photo. Here is an example of the correction (+2EV) that is possible:

Hopefully it demonstrates how quickly (by using a simple slider), exposure
can be changed after the fact.
