Still, missing is a local adjustment tool of any type.ĭxO does have an interface to LR and/or PS, if you want to use it for Raw conversion to TIFF and process further in LR.ĭxO's digital lens correction is state of the art, offering automatic correction for a huge combination of bodies and lenses. These really closed a gap that used to favor LR.

The last two versions of Optics Pro have added individual sliders for Highlights, Shadows, Midtones and Blacks, along with a Micro Contrast control. (Check out DPReview's test of your camera, where they compare high-ISO performance). DPReview will often use it when testing cameras to show examples of high-ISO and will have direct comparisons to LR and the maker's own software.
I've been a DxO Optics Pro user since 2009 and agree that its high-ISO Raw conversion and noise reduction is one of the very best available.
I haven't quite worked out how I will do this yet.Īnyone else what to share their experience? I am not really looking to change my workflow but I see that I will have to incorporate DXO into at least the high iso shots from the D300. I am a Lightroom and Photoshop user, and frankly have many many hours invested in learning these programs. In my mind, and given my tolerance for noice, this will now allow me to use the D300 at iso 6400, something I never thought I would do. The results, even at iso 6400 (which is H1 on the D300) were really very good. I took some shots in very low light with unexceptable results (to me) and then rendered them through DXO.
Recently I read on this forum about DXO Optics Pro V.9's amazing high iso rendering of raw files when in PRIME mode. I don't shoot with the D300 quite as much as I would otherwise because it doesn't handle high iso's as well as the D800. Also I like to have the DX option basically as a teleconverter. I primarily shoot a D800 but also use a D300 for times like vacations when I don't want to risk the more valuable camera.
