I'm on Windows and DxO has always behaved itself. Might make it easier to get one's familiar 'look' in DxO.Ĭan't comment about performance on Mac. Photolab 2's support for dcp profiles is something I'm keen to test, but haven't gotten around to just yet. It obviously has to desaturate to achieve this, but the control of the process is good. I also like how it can retain variation and detail in highly saturated colours. I like some of the film and grain simulations too. I tend not to use PRIME, as I don't like the look it generates, and I don't shoot much extreme ISO stuff anyway. Highlight recovery, if not blown too far, is excellent. Have seen some sample RAWs where the DxO sharpening was atrocious. Has been for my lenses and camera bodies. Lens corrections for vignetting and distortion are excellentĬapture sharpening is usually excellent. I can usually get what I want in LR, but sometimes I switch to DxO to give myself a different starting point. I tend to skip versions so it's unlikely that I'll be upgrading my current Photolab 1 to version 2. I've been a user of DxO since Optics Pro version 3, I think.
