Hello,
Just one thing that puzzles me : Nikon ViewNX2 generates a profile for each picture it processes, so each profile is based upon the parameters of this picture. That would mean that, for each picture, one would have to use the corresponding imported profile, else one might get even worse results than using the DT dedicated basecurve, isn't it ? That said, I think that that is the way profiles work...
