However, compared to DxO PureRAW it only offers HQ denoising rather than PRIME, DeepPRIME, or DeepPRIME XD noise reduction. It offers tools for color and exposure correction, local corrections, keywords, and much more. PhotoLab ESSENTIAL is a comprehensive solution on a budget. Please note: There are two Editions available for DxO PhotoLab, ESSENTIAL, and ELITE EDITION. The new enhanced batch processing with the option to shuffle the order of images and priority within a batch is a strong argument for DxO PureRAW 3. However, if you already have software for image editing, but you are looking for a very powerful tool for denoising and very precise optical corrections but you want to keep your current workflow, DxO PureRAW will be the perfect choice for you. If you don't have any photo editing software and are just starting with photography, DxO PhotoLab is a comprehensive solution. This information applies to version(s): 1, 2, 3ĭxO PhotoLab ELITE Edition and DxO PureRAW are based on the same engine and you can expect the same results for denoising and optical corrections.
