If needs be, you can fix those manually in an image editor. I’m not just talking about distortion, vignetting or chromatic aberrations. And, most importantly, it knows how to fix them. And it knows how they work with each other. The DXO AdvantageĭXO has a unique selling point. It’ll be interesting to see where it sits when it comes out. Skylum’s Luminar is another excellent alternative and V4’s release isn’t far away. Only DXO matches it in terms of RAW conversion. It’s incredible that it still competes (and outperforms) most of the alternatives. The developers tell me they are working on it and I believe them. But it is hasn’t had a major update in, like, forever. Photo Ninja, by Picturecode is, in my opinion, DXO’s most serious rival. So little has changed with this new release.The competition hasn’t caught up with DXO, no matter how hard they try.I knew that I would not change my opinion on reviewing the new release. I remain of the opinion that it is the best, or very close to the best, RAW photo converter that money can buy. I’ve been using DXO Photo Lab since its release and I’ve used DXO in its previous incarnations for well over a decade. It won’t install on Windows 7… Introduction to DXO Photo Lab 3 NOTE for Windows 7 usersĭXO Photo Lab needs Windows 8.1 or 10 64 bit.

DXO did not pay me to write this review, neither did they supply me with the software.
