![]() ![]() It brought a portion of the shadow area up too much for my taste, but I may be able how to figure out how to reduce that. WIth a few of the built in tools, I made something even better. The auto feature of this software did all that for me and made an almost identical image in about a half second. I took a stab at editing an image that I really liked and had done my 'best' editing job ever on with DPP and CS6. So I don't have any experience beyond exposure, some highlight/shadow adjustments, white balance, and other basic stuff like that. On the scale from straight-out-of-camera to digital art, I'm way to the left. This is the first raw developer i've used, besides DPP 4.x. Share your thoughts, likes and downloaded the free trial a couple days ago. My only con is that there is still no option to export your custom user palette. It was never a major issue - my machine is purpose-built and more than capable of processing pretty much anything you can throw at it, but what I perceived as lag in the local adjustments isn’t there anymore. I purposely overused the repair tool to see if I could recreate the effect and it never lagged to any degree. Previously if I had used the local adjustment tools to any significant degree the program would lag a bit. Local adjustment features seem to work faster and smoother. The three modes of noise reduction available reaffirms my opinion that DxO has the best noise reduction available in a RAW developer ‘suite’. I was skeptical that there would be a real difference between DeepPrime and Prime, but there is. I think the addition of the DeepPrime tech is legitimate. I love how you can switch between your user palette and all active modules with one click. This might be the best thing they’ve done for this program since it’s inception. I love how they‘ve categorized the different sections of the developing process into different palette ’tabs’ that you can quickly click through. I have my thumbnail loupe detached and running in my left monitor. This leaves the entire left side and bottom of my monitor open for a huge view of the photo being developed. I moved all the tools I use to the right side - histogram on top, then my custom user palette, then the metadata information module (minimized), and then finally the preset editor palette (minimized). I love the ability to move all the adjustment palettes wherever I like. So after spending most of the evening (and into the night) yesterday using the new version I’m ready to say it’s the best RAW developer I’ve ever used.
