One of the most anticipated software updates of the year is here - DxO have released the latest version of their lauded RAW editor - Photolab. In this release there's a brand new AI denoising algorithm, new lens softness corrections, an advanced live loupe tool and tweaks to the tone curve. I've been putting it through its paces over the last couple of weeks, testing the new features and I was impressed by what I found.
DxO supplied me with a serial for Photolab 8, but had no input whatsoever on the content of this review.
