Info//

DxO https://www.dxo.com New Licence: £135, $149, 149 € Upgrade: £69, $79, 79 € Compatibility: 8GB RAM, 4GB available disk space, macOS Catalina 10.15.7 or later, Intel Core i7 4th generation or higher, or Apple Silicon

Nik Collection 5, by photo processing experts DxO Labs, is a suite of eight plug-ins that can be used within apps like Photoshop, Photoshop Elements and Adobe Lightroom. If you don't use any of those programs you can open each individual item in the suite as a stand-alone app, but according to DxO, almost 90% of its users launch them from Photoshop or Lightroom. It's not yet 100% Apple Silicon native, but it works fine in Rosetta 2 and total compatibility is coming.

There are four creativity-oriented plug-ins, namely Nik Color Efex, Nik Silver Efex, Nik Analog Efex and Nik Viveza. The other four plug-ins are designed to help the photographer to perfect their pictures on a technical level. These are Nik Dfine, Nik Perspective Efex, Nik HDR Efex and Nik Sharpener.

Plug it in!

The most popular plug-in from the collection is Nik Color Efex, a creative tool for colour adjustments. It now boasts 55 separate filters, and 39 'recipes', that is, combinations of filters available as presets. It's been built from the ground up with a new user interface, and upgraded U Point technology for local adjustments.
