Below are an example of Nikon Picture Control- Film Simulation. I do not know where these originated and I take no credit for making them. That said, I think they are pretty neat and can give your pictures a bit of creative pop or to improve the Nikon out of camera jpegs. I've used these on my Nikon D7000 but they should work on other models like the D5100, D600 or better.
They are very easy to install on your camera and can be further customized to your tastes.
- They are not permanent.
- They will not damage your camera.
