My deadline is looming and I need to get this published now!īelow are some triplets of images, and you can tell which is which based on the suffix in their filenames. Note that I will likely expand on this article in the near future. In that respect, it is quite similar to Capture One I’d say. Lastly, with respect to how it processed Fujifilm X-Trans raw files, I find it to do an excellent job, providing a great deal of natural looking texture detail when compared to using Adobe raw conversions.
#TESTOUT LAB RUNS SLOW SOFTWARE#
Some of that might be due to my unfamiliarity with nuances of the software though, so for now I cannot really criticize it too much.
#TESTOUT LAB RUNS SLOW PLUS#
I do find the software to be a bit touchy, sometimes giving an overly flat image with not enough contrast, and on other occasions when using their ClearView Plus adjustment for example, things can look a bit “overcooked” for my liking. For now I am still undecided on whether or not I’ll do more than just apply Deep Prime to an image, or if I will also use DxO to do more extensive adjustments. I don’t even mean that from a workflow standpoint, rather from the standpoint of fully adjusting individual images. I haven’t really fully explored all the features of DxO Photo Lab, but I am thinking I will use it to augment processing in Lightroom or Capture One, and not try to replace those programs.
#TESTOUT LAB RUNS SLOW ISO#
In addition, on a camera that suffers from hot or stuck pixels when doing high ISO or long exposures (like my aging Fujifilm X-Pro2 does), Deep Prime does a much better job of eliminating those pixels than Photoshop or Lightroom. As mentioned, this shadow recovery, coupled with Deep Prime NR, can give remarkable levels of detail, even in underexposed high ISO shots. DxO does have some good tools for expanding the dynamic range of an image though, providing a somewhat automated way of filling shadows and pulling back highlights.

In addition, you can create a preset in DxO which nulls out any optical corrections, so you can then effectively get DNG files with only Deep Prime noise reduction applied, and that’s it. With DxO, you also have the option to export images with only NR and optical corrections applied, if you would like to do all further image adjustments in a different program. It is available directly from DxO here for demo or for purchase: Note that we do not sell this software and I’ve only written this as a service to our customers, some of whom might find this software useful. It also offers the ability to batch process raw files to DNG, for example with only the Deep Prime NR enabled, and those files can then be processed as usual in Lightroom or Capture One for example. However the results are so good that for the occasional great image that might need a little help in the noise department, I feel it can be worth the purchase price. One drawback to Deep Prime is that on older, slower computers, or those without a high-performance graphics card, the software can be very slow (several minutes) at processing a single image.
#TESTOUT LAB RUNS SLOW TRIAL#
I strongly encourage you to download a trial version to test it out for yourself! Words can’t begin to describe how effective it can be when working with a high dynamic range photo, shot at a high ISO, where you are needing to recover deep shadow detail due to underexposing in order to preserve highlight detail. The first image sequence in the samples below, taken in White Rock, has a bunch of hot pixels near the lower left corner, so you can see how well hot pixels are managed on that photo. It even does a great job of eliminating hot or stuck pixels. Deep Prime is exceptionally good at distinguishing noise from even subtle texture details, and usually does a stunningly good job at eliminating even heavy levels of noise but leaving you with an image that is largely artifact free and looks like it was shot at a much lower ISO. I have never been as impressed with any other “AI” based NR software. The raw conversions are finely detailed with good dynamic range and great shadow detail, but Deep Prime is what is game changing. Well, I have to say that the tests left me immensely impressed, so much so that I ended up buying the software for myself.
#TESTOUT LAB RUNS SLOW UPDATE#
With DxO’s recent update to their PhotoLab software, it now supports raw files from Fujifilm’s X-Trans sensor equipped cameras, so I finally took the opportunity to download a trial version, mainly to test out their “Deep Prime” noise reduction (NR) module.
