![]() ![]() But it does deliver professional results. The defaults tend to be a little heavy handed for my style, and need dialling back for practical use. It also plays nicely with LUMIX cameras – but more on that later. What’s on offer is a lot of good technology, a half decent user interface and some simple pricing advantages. Today there are tonnes of options on the market, admittedly most of them "not quite right".ĭxO PhotoLabs is feature rich and quick to learn. Capture One was a clear winner back then. Back then Aperture on MacOS was the main alternative, or you had to pull images through one by one in Photoshop. We’re talking more than two decades ago when version 3 hit the internet and Lightroom didn’t even exist yet. ![]() I’ve been a Capture One fan since the early days. ![]() After an appalling lack of camera support from Capture One in 2022 I started looking seriously at my alternatives. I will just answer a very long post in another tread by “Milan” first, because I feel he deserves a reply on that ambitious text he wrote.Lightroom and Capture One get most of the attention when shopping for RAW Workflow software, but in recent years both have moved towards subscriber only pricing. I rather spend it on digitizing old analog images, metadata setting my backlog or write a few new reports or image stories. That´s why I will cut down my presence here substantially and use my limited time more carefully. Talking about a problem here is just talking to deaf DXO ears. There are other cases where we can learn from each other but this is not one of them. I have worked a lot with the most important software companys on the market when I first got into the software business, so I just compare here what I´m experiencing in DXO Forums. They apparently know how to do it in the “Customize”-module, don´t they?Ī problem like that in PhotoMechanic would have been picked up instantly by Kirk Baker or one of his friends reading the message flow in Camera Bits Forum. I don´t want to have to “work around” bugs like the performance bug in PhotoLibrary that forces me to put up with a delay of 2-3 seconds per image when it´s instant to walk through the same images in the “Customize”-module. DxO generally will not respond to, or discuss, any resolution to functional limitations, design issues, or planned new features. The software not working the way a user expects is not necessarily a bug. They are most likely to respond to specific bugs with existing functionality. With regard to DXO responding to posts on this forum, short of indicating that a resolution to a specific issue will be available in a specific time frame, there is nothing they can say to ameliorate frustrated users like As a result they too often say nothing, which gives the impression they don’t know what’s being posted here or just don’t care. Many of us, myself included, still continue to favor this software over the competition despite It’s sometimes frustrating limitations. We can choose to continue to use DxO’s products despite the frustration of its limitations, or we can move on to other products that may better meet our needs. This is the reality of using the PhotoLab Suite. There is a growing number of feature differences between platforms despite DxO’s assurances that they are being addressed. There are promised features which have not been delivered. There are requested features which have been in the backlog for years. However, they are very careful choosing which posts will get responses.Īs we all know, there are features in PhotoLab with unfinished/unrefined functionality. DXO reads just about every single post on this forum.
