Some of the best photo-editing software, such as Photoshop and Lightroom use lens profiles to help smooth out noise and counteract distortion created by a particular camera’s lens.

It uses DxO’s proprietary RAW demosaicing and processing process alongside lab-generated automatic lens correction profiles and new DeepPRIME XD processing technology to produce the best results from RAW files you’re likely to see. Its AI-powered denoising and demosaicing technology works by intelligently scanning photographs and making smart adjustments to images without any extra input from the user for fast cleaning up of noisy images, or shots where moire patterns and mosaicing is an issue (such as in clothing). DxO PhotoLab 4 is a powerful digital darkroom that enables you to fix a host of common photo problems quickly. DxO PhotoLab 6 is both a RAW processing and lens correction tool and a powerful non-destructive photo editor. There is a small selection of ready-made presets but more can be installed and added whether they’ve been downloaded from elsewhere or custom made by the user within the program.Īs well as the above, PhotoLab 4 does a great job of editing raw and compressed image files (such as JPEG). In a bid to speed up workflow, PhotoLab 4 also offers a selection of in-built presets accessed via the Apply Preset button in the top-right of the window. Projects are a useful way of categorizing images within the software itself, without changing how the images are stored on the storage device. It’s also possible to make custom folders read by PhotoLab 4 called Projects.

On the left is a drop-down list of locally stored files (which also works with removable drives) from which to make image selections. Photo management is relatively straightforward thanks to the PhotoLibrary mode.
