Nice job. Before Adobe significantly upgraded a key Lightroom weakness, Noise Reduction, in I believe spring 2023, DxO used to do a much better job than Lightroom Classic in Noise Reduction; now I think DxO is only slightly better, but in most images the improvement is only apparent to me when I zoom in and pixel peep.

FWIW, DxO is having an anniversary sale. Took advantage of it myself to upgrade from PureRaw 2 to 4.

Just for info: I'm also experiencing a change of Calibration version to V1 with the latest PR4. No effect on Curves though. (Running Windows 11). I have opened a support ticket with DxO.

[@chrishendra140]

Me too. If I bring it back as a TIFF instead of DNG it stays on version 6 or current version.

[@russellwebb3672]

As I commented in your Topaz AI video there was a colour shift between RAW and DNG with DXO this does not seem to happen and DXO seems much faster also some help please, I just started with the Mac system and when I export from L/R to DXO everything goes well except DXO leaves an additional icon in the tray and have to use the DXO OK that pops up behind the L/R screen or remove that icon before L/R can open another image Thanks.

And for fuji?

[@chuckmorton8823]

There is a tinge of agua/blue in the Bighorn sheep's nose area and bottom of the horns in the final edit. That would drive me crazy as those areas should be closer to white.

[@sounderdavis5446]

Blue tones are seen there in the unedited Raw file. Google "rocky mountain bighorn sheep" and select the Images tab, and you'll see some other RMBS with blue tones in those areas. You could always desaturate blue back in Lightroom's Color Mixer if it bugs you, but this isn't an effect being added in DxO or Lightroom.

So why does the woman in the YT listing have that look on her face?
