DxO PureRAW 3.6.0.22 download the new version

You can now launch PureRAW as an external converter within Lightroom, bypassing Adobe’s own RAW processing engine and using DxO’s instead. The key new feature in PureRAW 2 is its Lightroom integration. The difference is they use DxO’s demosaicing and denoising processes, not Adobe’s.

Once PureRAW has created Linear DNGs from the original RAW files, Lightroom can open and work with these Linear DNGs just like regular RAW files. It’s aimed particularly at anyone with a Lightroom workflow who is unhappy with Lightroom’s own RAW processing (or Adobe Camera Raw’s). PureRAW 2 now supports Fujifilm cameras and their proprietary sensor design.ĭxO PureRAW is ideal for anyone who wants to extract the maximum quality from their RAW files but doesn’t want to make the switch from their current workflow to DxO PhotoLab, the company’s flagship image processing and editing tool.

Who is DxO PureRAW for? What’s remarkable about this screenshot is the camera in the dialog – it’s a Fujifilm X-20 with an X-Trans sensor.

It goes further than most with lower ISO images, as DxO’s lens profiles don’t just correct distortion, chromatic aberration and corner shading, but edge softness too.ĭxO PureRAW is like a spin-off from DxO PhotoLab, which is DxO’s flagship program and uses the same raw processing, optical corrections and denoising technologies. But where it takes the lead is with, its DeepPRIME denoising process, which is uncannily good at restoring high ISO images. The idea is that photographers still get the RAW workflow they’re used to, but with superior ‘pre-processed’ RAW files to work with.ĭxO’s RAW processing is very, very good, and right up there with Capture One’s.

They can be read by other software just like any other RAW file, but they have already had DxO’s proprietary RAW demosaicing, lens corrections and noise reduction processes applied. DxO PureRAW produces ‘part-processed’ RAW files in the little-used Linear DNG format.
