not so good color rendition versus Nikon capture NX

NN21711
Hello!
I hope I'm not the only one who has that problem. I use Nikon camera, and do the raw process with Nikon capture NX
When I bought Capture one and started to work with, I was happy to see how fast the raw processing can be, but I can not produce so clear, harmonic color tones as in Nikon capture NX (which is the most slow and hard to use program I have ever seen.) Becouse of this, in critical works I can not use capture one, but have to work long hours with Nikon software.
Can anybody give advise?
Thanks:Béla

    I have to agree with you. Nikon keeps their processing under wraps and so we cannot get the same output from C1 as NX2. I hate NX2 so much that I only use it in mission critical applications. But after working w/ C1 now I have gotten my colors pretty close to NX2's output. Depending on who your client is would determine my approach. I am a stickler and found that color calibration of a good monitor is the first piece to the puzzle.
    Most clients don't see what we see- so a shade off will not impact them. If it is a magazine or something else professional then this may require you to open the file in NX2 and in C1 to try and compare and duplicate. That is what I used to do and do occasionally.
