Rob,
You're absolutely right! I was eagerly expecting NX3 as a strong successor to NX2 which I have been using for years, yes, with those fabulous U-points. But in the new version called NX-D, the 'D' stands for Disaster! No more U-points, probably as a result from the buy-over Google did with Nik, since Nikon does no or few software development themselves. I'm still using Nik software Suite with Lightroom. For the little I experienced with Lightroom 5.5 in only 3 days, it is great!
Thanks for your contribution, as well as all other members here in this community for their advice!
Roger
