What's New in Version 2024-05-29 See changelog
Released
BackyardNIKON 3.5.0 will install side-by-side of previously installed versions of BackyardNIKON; they can coexist just fine on the same computer. If you don’t need your previously installed version, you can remove it without any impact on 3.5.x.
We have aligned BackyardNIKON’s version number with BackyardEOS version number, hence the jump from 2.1.x to 3.5.x.
Your BackyardNIKON 2.1.x software key will work with BackyardNIKON 3.5.x ~ it’s a free upgrade!
