DxO Expands and Syncs its Optics Modules Across All its Editing Tools

DxO has introduced that customers of any of its titles — DxO PhotoLab 5, PureRAW 2, ViewPoint 3, FilmPack 6, and Nik Assortment 5 — now have entry to greater than 75,000 digicam and lens mixtures, which it touts because the world’s most complete.

Along with including assist for a bunch of latest cameras and lenses, DxO Labs has synchronized its Optics Modules throughout the total vary of its software program. The corporate says that since every new Optics Module is created from particular person digicam and lens mixtures, they current essentially the most full and high-quality method to optical correction.

Along with including assist for cameras just like the DJI Mini 3 Professional, Fujifilm X-H2S, Nikon D810A, and Nikon Z30, DxO can also be including assist for what it describes as a “big” vary of latest lenses.

Drawing a line within the sand, DxO says that not like its opponents who solely supply “generic profiles,” it presents corrections which might be optimized for particular digicam and lens setups.

“DxO’s distinctive dual-calibration system assesses every particular person lens and digicam physique collectively, delivering really bespoke and excellent optical corrections. This results in an unique set of traits that no different system can present,” the corporate claims.

DxO says that there are two vital advantages to this method. First, the Optics Module asses 100% of the pixel space as being the true subject of seize.

“Different options — together with these from digicam manufacturers and competitor software program — are pressured to crop the decision when decreasing optical distortion,” DxO says. “In contrast, DxO Optics Modules maintain as much as 10% extra pixels in comparison with the competitors.”

Second, DxO says it makes use of an “unique” lens sharpness algorithm that gives tailored changes and corrections based mostly on every lens’s subject of view.

“Sharpening is utilized at totally different ranges, particular to a lens’s idiosyncrasies. As an illustration, sharpening may enhance in direction of the sting of the body to stability any radial softness. This achieves superior outcomes when in comparison with making use of basic sharpening throughout your entire picture — an method taken in lesser software program,” the corporate claims.

DxO says that its Optics Modules additionally right for vignetting, geometric distortions, and longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberrations as a part of its customary.

The corporate says that its Optics Fashions are the one method to profit from “anamorphic deformation compensation,” which it says is an unique expertise that restores the pure proportions of a scene or topic after having been distorted by the traits of a wide-angle lens. The corporate claims that due to this, utilizing shorter focal lengths is not a difficulty when capturing massive teams of individuals or in panorama images.

DxO isn’t promoting any new product or introducing new pricing as a part of this announcement however is as a substitute simply targeted on attempting to elucidate its worth proposition to those that may not be aware of its instruments. All of DxO Labs’ enhancing instruments will be perused on its website.
