Select PCX from the format list. Fine-tune color space, compression, and quality before converting your RAW photos.
4. Start NEF to PCX conversion
Click Convert to start the batch. reaConverter processes files quickly and shows you the status of each one.
Once done, reaConverter shows a summary. Click 'Show converted files' to jump straight to your PCX output.
How NEF and PCX differ in practice
NEF files hold unprocessed sensor data, so white balance and exposure are still adjustable. Converting to PCX bakes those decisions into the pixels, and highlight recovery is no longer available afterwards. Set white balance and exposure before the run rather than after. PCX stores a limited palette rather than full colour, so the conversion has to reduce the number of distinct colours. Photographic content shows this as banding, while flat graphics and icons usually survive it untouched.
