![]() Some people are perfectly happy with the PL 5 standard version without VP or FP at the lowest price point. Everything is already built into PhotoLab, but additional licenses are needed to unhide PL Elite, Viewpoint, and FilmPack specific features… That is why there are two versions of PhotoLab as well as FilmPack and Viewpoint. DxO modularizes their product line to allow customers to take advantage of their editing products at different price points. I think you guys may be missing the point. Why not place it from the beginning where even you at DXO seem to believe it naturally belongs? The fact that the Contrast and Microcontrast functions got included in the main product and Fine Contrast not and that they all appears together in the Photolab interface under “Contrast” (when FP is installed) makes it even more hard to understand. ![]() At some point someone at DXO made a decission and it would be very intresting to understand how they thought when they took that decission. I read what you are writing but it doesn´t really get more understandable at least for me. It´s one on Photolabs most essential tools for me. I always start the process with pulling the Microcontrast as far to the left that is possible and then rise the Micro Contrast instead to maybe 25-30. … but Fine Contrast on the other hand has been a real image saver when I use it to save old positive color film that I have been digitising. Microcontrast also seems to be one of the parameters affected by Clear View Plus which means that even that tool has to be handled with great care if it should not make more damage than good. Personally I almost only use the Fine Contrast since Microcontrast so often severely affects for example the sky in my images. ![]() All are viewed in FastStone IV at 300% is there some technical reason that forces you to include it in Filmpack or is this just marketing? Original RAW with no NR on Upper Left, NoNoise on UR, Deep Prime on LL and Denoise(RAW AI) on LR. All files were converted to JPG using DxO PL5 with no other corrections applied. No other edits other than EC, NR and sharpening were applied to any of the files. I applied a +2EV exposure correction to all 4 files so that anything at all could be seen. Denoise AI and NoNoise both include sharpening at their default settings so I included default Lens Sharpness with Deep Prime. All NR versions are at their default settings. Here is a comparison of NR methods Topaz Denoise AI, On1 NoNoise, and DxO DeepPrime. The NR method that I used from Topaz was not AI Clear but rather their RAW AI algorithm(Clear AI was much worse). The following photo of the Miami Florida skyline at night was taken by forum member Mike Myers at 12,800 ISO. DxO Lens Sharpness(with the appropriate lens module) is far superior to Unsharp Mask and with the exception of motion blur, it is superior to anything that Topaz has to offer.Īs far as NR is concerned, Deep Prime blows the competition out of the water at really high ISO.
