![]() ![]() DXO is fine for my culling needs… it is just that it is so slow on folder changes. If I try to move it into a folder that DXO will recognize. So I use two packages to do the whole job. I have several Raw images in Photos, but unable to edit them in DXO 6. As I did before discovering DXO, when using the native Canon or Nikon software.Īlthough I would like a simpler workflow, I do like the standalone RAW batch processing which can just be let running overnight to give me the TIFFs for editing the next day. To date, I prefer the output of DXO to Adobe Camera RAW… so I do have two steps in my process. Lens modules are still optional and everything that was explained for RAW files is still valid. DXO excels as a RAW processor, Photoshop excels as a creative photo manipulation tool. In the case of a JPEG file, support for the camera becomes optional (DxO PhotoLab can open JPEG files from any camera), but having it enables automatic noise reduction. Similarly, as others have mentioned, the healing / content fill tools in Photoshop are excellent. I will sometimes use DeepPrime, but the true value for me is the optical corrections which I have traditionally preferred in DXO.Īs to “why on Earth I would use Photoshop”… I do find it amusing to express such strong feelings without knowing the purpose of my editingĭXO does not do multiple alpha channels on multiple layers to merge multiple images together. At that point, changing the color rendering to camera body will, indeed, show a difference. However, as soon as you pick, for instance, the standard preset, PhotoLab evaluates things based on not just the camera body and lens, but also on the current image. So yes, there are other tools which to do that better, but it’s not a reason to not having a better solution inside PL.Ĭhanging settings in DXO does not affect the RAW, only the sidecar and database. Careful examination of the two JPEG files show absolutely no difference. And in older posts about such request to add metadata before they start working on it, I was reluctant to add that function in PL, but have been convinced after trying it.Īnd I know it’s not perfect (lack of data presets, managing of keywords,…) but I hope it will come sometime. This may be normal because Picture Control is camera specific. I was previously using Photo Supreme, and I"m now happy to get rid of it and use only PL to add metadata. When I set my camera Picture control Monochrome (Nokin D7500) to get a black and white photo, I noticed that DxO PL converts my RAW image to color. ![]() Something like metadata, there are still a lot of users who don’t want to do it inside PL for multiple good reasons, but for me it is well adapted to my needs. I would appreciate also to have only one tool and do that inside PL.Īnd it may convince users previously reluctant to do that in PL that finally it may be well for them also… Six reasons why DxO PhotoLab 6 is the RAW photo editing software for you Discover all features Unparalleled image quality DxO’s unique DeepPRIME denoising and exceptional color science raise the bar for RAW processing. Even if one could quickly view the jpeg previews, PhotoLab would still not be a terribly good tool to use for culling images.īut other (many?) users could find it very well adapted to their workflow.Īctually, when opening a new folder (around 200 files) sorted by content creation date, it takes ages to finish working on thumbnails and then be able to start culling. ![]()
