![]() Once again no problem to manage it with On1, Xnview or LR. When working from one software to the other we should view or edit all included metadata from IPTC to XMP. Metadata editing with actual XMP support but with all extra filelds, not only a title and some keywords… I personaly have to use On1 to process raw files that PL doesn’t support and that is a lot ! ON1, LR and free software like Xnview ensure this with a good back compatibility. Raw converter of ALL raw files included old formats (olympus ORF, etc), exotic formats (drone, actioncam, film scanner), photophone with raw support (panasonic CM1, iphone, samsung), camera formats (FUJI X-trans, canon, nikon, etc ) and DNG files from software (LR, TOPAZ, etc) I think that PL should at least offer what nowadays are the minimum features as a photographer’s toolkit : Now tell me, what do you think DxO needs to do with Photolab so it will get more users and pro photographers and Youtube influencers will start using Photolab? If DxO acts correctly he will keep existing users and get new users. No matter what is the reason DxO needs to finds the answer and act so it will get more users. So why Lightroom and Capture One are so popular? Most of the Lightroom users who don’t like Lightroom any more are switching to Capture One.Īre Lightroom and Capture One better then Photolab? I would say not in quality. All the Youtube influencers are also using Lightroom and Capture One. As I see ( I could be wrong) the majority of professional photographers are using Lightroom and Capture One. I bet raising the price to much won’t go well. It can get more profit with raising the prices of DxO products or by getting more users. Let’s say DxO wants more profit so it can invest more in development. If they decide Photolab does not need new features let so be it. Let a few members of this forum dictates what Photolab should do and what not. If this is true let Photolab stays as it is and all or majority of the users will be happy and they will buy new versions of Photolab. In short DxO needs to make money to feed the owners, pay employees, to pay all costs and invest inĭxO is satisfied with the profit it makes at the moment and with the number of users it has at the moment. What happens if there is no profit to feed the owners, to give employees a paycheck and to invest in development and new equipment? Perhaps some of them are but in general they go to work to get a paycheck.Īnd there are also the owners. All of them are not going to work every day just because it’s fun. They also need to have other employees to do other things. They need to have a top programmers to work on Photolab. If DxO is a company they have a cleaners who clean offices at the end of a working day. As I understand DxO is a company and capitalistic owners of the company I work for are teaching us the main goal of a company is to make a profit for the owners. If I’m correct DxO is not ‘’a few enthusiastic programmers sitting in a garage, eating sandwiches, drinking cheap coffee and writing a code for Photolab’’. If I wake one day and I would like to replace a sky it will be a matter of a few minutes – download Luminar and install and here we go. If I need some other features missing in Photolab I can use LR, C1P or Photoshop. Which doesn’t affects midtones so much.That’s all. I think this is a difficult questions to answer.įrom my standpoint all I would like at the moment from Photolab is more traditional Highlights slider Should Photolab do everything that other tools do?
