Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I am interested in knowing if you actually got the update. After I updated my Nikon Capture NX to version 2.3, I tried to update my Color Efex 2.0 plugin, but Nik said that it was no longer offering ANYTHING below version 4.0, which does NOT work with Capture 2.3. I exchanged emailed with the folks at Nik software on this subject. They said that at one point they had been offering the updated version 3 plugin, but they no longer offer it.

(The version 3 plugin DOES exist and it DOES work with Capture NX 2.3.) I would appreciate any information others might have on this subject. I am (was) an avid fan of Nik Color Efex and it would be very disappointing if I was no longer able to use it. Needless to say, I am distinctly unhappy with Nik on this subject. You must have upgraded a while ago.

That link no longer works. After I tried it, I called the Nik company and I was told that Nik was no longer offering the version 3 upgrade for Capture NX.

Here is Nik's response to my request: Thank you for contacting Nik Software. Unfortunately, we are not longer selling any product for Capture NX 2. At one point, Color Efex Pro 3.0 for Capture NX 2 was available, however once Color Efex Pro 4 was released that older version was discontinued. At this time Color Efex Pro 4 is not compatible with Capture NX 2 and that is why we are no longer compatible.

I apologize for this inconvenience. For information or inquires, you are always free to suggest this compatibility to Capture NX 2 and Nikon support. Aristoc: Thanks for your help on this issue. Using your instructions, I have been able to download Color Efex 3.0.0.4, which works fine with my installed Capture NX2 2.3.

Unfortunately, the download process would not let me 'upgrade' using my old serial number, so I have only a demo product on my computer. You must have entered a a version 3 serial number, am I right?

Anyway, I'll give Nik a call on Monday and try to get an upgrade price for this. I do not want to spring for the full cost of $179.99 (again). Gene007 wrote: That is exactly what I tried to do. I got to that very page you show in your post, but when I tried to enter information in the pull down menu that says, 'Upgrade to,' the field is blank and I can't proceed any further.

Nik is no longer offering an upgrade from CEP 2 to CEP 3. People who purchased CEP 3 are allowed to upgrade to 3.0.0.4 or the CEP 4, but no upgrade from 2 to 3. I can't see the rationale behind this policy.

From that page: 'Registered customers who own Color Efex Pro 2 for Capture NX are eligible to purchase upgrades to any of the Color Efex Pro 3.0 editions' Since the page in question is specifically for upgrading to CEP 3, perhaps the field you can't enter is redundant, and not required. If you skip that part, then enter your current CEP 2 product key, can you proceed? Color Efex Pro 3 (and 4) is a 32 bits app; the advantage of NX2 2.3 is in the 64 bits app which is by far faster. So to combine both, I choosed to save the directory of NX2 32 bits 2.2.8 with Color Efex Pro 3 before updating to 2.3 (which deletes the previous version!) then I restored the 'old' NX2 in 'program files (x86)', thus I have two versions of NX2 (i) the 32 bits 2.2.8 with CEP3 (ii) the 64 bits 2.3 without, both work flawlessly and I choose my version at will.

This is a little bit tricky but very usefull. Here is the reply from Nik on this issue (below). Frankly, I don't understand the rationale. I have the CEP 3.0.0.4 Demo fully loaded and it works fine with NX2 2.3. All I want to do is PAY MONEY to Nik and obtain a license. I offered to buy the CEF 4 upgrade if they would give me a license key for version 3.

They won't take my money!! This is a major inconvenience since I used CEP with every picture I processed with NX2. Without being able to use CEP after the demo period is over, none of the adjustments will work and all the processing I did in past years is worthless. You would think that Nik would have given fair warning of this situation to CEP 2 users.

I feel like Nik Software has screwed me over. Fair warning to future Nik customers. Nik Reply: I apologize for the misunderstanding in my last email. Although I advised that we are no longer supporting Color Efex Pro 3, I do understand how it can be confusing because we did just release an update for customers who already own the software.
