My biggest doubt on DxO is the companies reliablity (patches, support, future camera support, etc) since the price is quite steep: It is the same as paying Adobe CC for 2 and 1/2 years since I need the Photo Suite to have the perspective correction from ViewPoint to replace LR "Transform" that I use a lot and FilmPack just to be able to create a vignette. Basically disable denoise and sharpening on LR and try to do both on PS better than DxO or C1 can do Ģ) Move to DxO and blindly believe on their magical code ģ) Learn to tweak C1 to get the same results from DxO and keep its amazing colors. So, right now I am between three options:ġ) Keep Adobe CC and learn to fix Lightroom limitations on Photoshop. Here is a simple example (for me the difference on this 1-1 on the details of the trees and the green gazebo behind the statue are crazy): It looks like that they are doing something weird, some strong sharpening filter or something, that is tricking my eyes. But, they are so much better that I kind of doubt it. DxO Labs released FilmPack 4 Wednesday, a new version of its software for photographers fond of the retro film look made possible by Instagram and similar filter-effect apps. For me DxO gave the best results (specially pulling details out of the RAW, sharpening and noise reduction). CaptureOne has almost the same level of detail of DxO (but not the same), better denoise than LR (but not better than DxO) but the best colors. I was expecting better results from the Nik Collection (specially the denoise tool) but it look very artificial too me. DxO FilmPack 4 helps you infuse your digital photos with all the quality and emotion of Fine Art photography, thanks to its accurately-reproduced silver halide and color film quality renderings and numerous creative effects. They probably can improve, but then, it is too much work and I just prefer to stay on LR/PS that I am used to. I tried to tweak them but they never got super sharp. RawTherapee, Darktable and ON1 all looked very dull and soft on a straight conversion. Affinity I discarted right away because it failed to open one of my sample G9 High Res RAW files. I downloaded the trial of CaptureOne, DxO, Affinity, Nik Collection (to use just the denoise and sharpening plugins inside LR), ON1, Rawtherapee and Darktable. Since I am a CC monthly subscriber, I always fall back to Photoshop to do those and that always slows my workflow so I just do that with very few images.īut recently I decided to test other RAW converters.

The interface is nice, fast and it seems to work great.I am a Lightroom user since forever but I was never fully satisfied with sharpening and noise reduction on it.
