Correcting lens distortion has never been easier or looked better. Last but not least, DxO brings their considerable expertise in optical correction to Nik Collection 2 with DxO PhotoLab. It’s comprised of seven separate, but integrated, apps: Analog Efex Pro for film emulation effects, with 10 new presets Color Efex Pro, one of my personal favorites for color correction and creative effects, now with 10 new presets Dfine for noise reduction for your specific camera HDR Efex Pro for high-dynamic range effects, including 10 new presets Viveza to control the colors and tones in your images Silver Efex Pro for beautiful black-and-white conversions, also with 10 exciting new presets and Sharpener Pro for highly customizable image sharpening. Nik Collection 2 continues the suite’s long history of providing users with all the tools they need under one umbrella to take their images to the next level. So now that you have to pay for it again, is it worth it? In a word: Yes! While everybody loves free stuff, fee-based software is the best way to assure continued support and development. Now $149, it’s still an incredible value for such a powerful and well-integrated suite of tools. Happily, Nik is now in the able hands of imaging software titan DxO, which has released a thoroughly updated Nik Collection 2. Initially sold to Google after leaving the mother ship and offered as freeware, there was a long period of time when further development of this venerable suite of imaging plug-ins was uncertain. The Nik Collection has gone through its share of changes over the last decade.
