So all added up, maybe not that far from that sum! I never paid that much, but have upgraded slowly but surely, starting with a free version.

I'm at a point where I prefer out-of-fashion photo gear and old software to continual spending on new stuff.

I keep using a lot of really old software like Photoshop CS3 (paid for by a former employer) and DxO Optics Pro 9 ELITE (obtained during an uncharacteristically generous free promotion by DxO). But that product normally sells for $79 US, and is slooooooooow.Īnd even with ELITE you still don't get ViewPoint, which will cost another $50. I should also mention that I tried out Topaz deNoise Ai, and was rather impressed by the noise reduction it did. The Prime noise removal and Smart Lighting are two features that make this product worth considering. When time permits, just for the heck of it, you might want to use a PhotoLab 2 Elite version on a trial basis to see what it can do. DxO Software would not allow that, and were (rightly, I think) severely criticized for this.

Usually purchasers of the old version are allowed to upgrade to the new version free, if they purchased the old version only a few months before the new software came out. There was a kerfuffle a few months ago about their new version of the Nik Suite. But I question whether it is worth $149 US to me at this time.īut DxO has been criticized for recent practices concerning upgrades. And it is used by a lot of Nikon 1 users, including Nikon 1 guru Thomas Stirr. But DxO PhotoLab 2 Elite does process photos in good ways that Lightroom and Photoshop cannot quite duplicate hence my interest in the product. Like you, I am quite satisfied with the results I am getting from Adobe software - in my case, Lightroom Classic and Photoshop CC. I would get the Elite version anyways, because that is the one with which I played during a trial period. Richard, the PhotoLab 2 description page is definitely UNclear about the fact that only the Elite version has the Prime noise-reduction feature, plus a few other useful features. Same image, in three different versions, all set to -1.7 EV. Some blueish haze covering the entire image disappeared when I converted from RAW to JPEG. Too heavy-handed, maybe?!Īnd here is one without any NR, or other adjustments, but cropped: Same photo, but using PRIME, and adjusted in exposure a bit. PRIME, contrast, and a little more exposure adjustment: Yesterday's moon, normal NR (HQ, some default exposure adjustment): I think I'll just stick with PS CC as I'm learning to use the built in NR feature during raw conversion and the results are encouraging. IMO this is a bit sleazy as the main page makes it seem that Prime is part of the package. I hadn't clicked through to the Buy page to see there was two editions. You need ELITE to get PRIME and other goodies: Please support this website.I've been thinking about buying it to get the Prime NR capability.
