It now consists of eight plug-ins rather then the original seven (under Google). You do now have to pay for the Nik Collection, but far less today than when originally sold by Nik Software. PureRAW is not an image-editor in itself, simply a batch processor for turning your original RAW files into Linear DNGs (or processed JPEGs).ĭxO did the photographic world a favor when it took over the Nik Collection from Google, where it was in danger of sinking without trace. You get all the edibility of RAW files in Lightroom, for example, but with DxO’s processing pre-applied. This is a more recent spin-off from PhotoLab which offers DxO’s high-end RAW processing, lens correction and demonising technology to produce special Linear DNG files which other programs see as regular RAW files. DxO FilmPack 6 has been released and a full review will follow. When used within PhotoLab it’s useful to have, but its effects are overshadowed by those in the Nik Collection (below), now also owned by DxO. It comes in two editions, Essential and Elite, and it’s worth paying the extra for the Elite edition to get RAW support (not needed within PhotoLab), Frames, Textures, Light Leaks and other advantages. It really comes into its own, however, when integrated with PhotoLab, where it provides perspective correction controls you might have expected to be standard in PhotoLab (they are not) but also more advanced options like volumetric distortion correction and tilt-shift effects.ĭxO FilmPack 5 DxO FilmPack 4 can recreate ‘distressed’ film effects like dust, scratches, textures and light leaks.įilmPack 5 is an analog film effects tool which, like ViewPoint 3, can be used as a standalone program but also integrates with PhotoLab. On its now, it’s effective enough but requires access to image files straight from the camera. This is a standalone perspective correction program that also integrates with DxO PhotoLab, above. This is support is in a beta phase, but works fine, albeit not will all features. NOTE: DxO’s RAW processing engine is now compatible with Fujifilm X-Trans RAW files. It also comes with ClearView Plus, more advanced color controls, workspace management and preset editing.
