Step 4: Wait for the export and finish the photo in Lightroom Make sure to choose Export as DNG (Denoise & Optical Corrections Only) Step 2: Apply DeepPRIME, Lens Sharpness and any other optical corrections you would like to apply

Step 1. Send the photo from Lightroom to DxO via the standard method. So, how do you take advantage of this? Easy. They are (in my opinion) industry leaders in both noise reduction and optical corrections and their demosaicing algorithm is also top-notch.

With PhotoLab 4, DxO have introduced a new feature that allows me to get the best of both worlds. Probably because I’m much more experience with Lightroom. However, I still use, and greatly prefer Adobe Lightroom to manage my photo collection and I find that I can get better tone, colour and overall ‘look’ of my images with Lightroom when compared to PhotoLab. (DeepPRIME is PhotoLab 4’s #1 new feature)

It is now my go-to RAW converter when dealing with noisy images. When DxO released the latest version of their PhotoLab software, there was much fanfare surrounding the DeepPRIME noise reduction software.
