Load up an image taken by a particular camera/lens pairing and PhotoLab 6 will automatically detect the combination, download a module to accurately amend and distort the image accordingly, with a lot of customisation available. (Image credit: DxO PhotoLab / Jacob Little) Featuresįeature-wise, one thing that is immediately apparent is the number of lenses and modes available within the lens correction module. When it comes to photo management, PhotoLab 6 doesn’t profess to offer the same catalogue and tagging systems as Adobe Lightroom and other applications, but what it does do is offer a non-destructive and easy-to-navigate way around your file directories, with a very easy-to-access and intuitive meta-tagging system that I actually preferred to other pieces of software out there, with clearly labelled areas to add contact information, content and status details. I found it to be on par if not slightly easier to find my way around once I had a few hours under the skin of each tool. It’s nicely and intuitively laid out, providing the photographer with clearly indicated icons for cropping, image manipulation, post-processing effects and spot corrections that can be made on the fly. So far, so Lightroom, you might say, but there are some nice pieces of design I've seen in other programmes over the years that have made their way over the latest PhotoLab incarnation, including the ability to toggle on and off in a more obvious way specific pieces of image manipulation – clearly indicated by a switch button of each development section and a greyed out feature when a particular editing tool is not in use. Much like Adobe’s offering it is skinned in black and grey tones, offering a ‘dark mode’ type feel to the software which is easy on the eye and draws out individual tones in any image you might be editing.

1 month plan - £0 per month (£0 total cost)Īnyone familiar with the general model of Adobe projects will feel at home in DxO PhotoLab 6, with a comprehensive correction and development tab on the right of the screen twined with a large preview screen front and centre, and the more logistical elements of image processing on the left, including presets, history, file location and colour histograms.

They’ve been around since the early 2000s, and in 2004 Optics Pro was released, which offered high-level technology to correct lens defects and image distortion.
