DxO OpticsPro features
DxO OpticsPro has functions similar to Adobe Lightroom: the software can be used to edit RAW files as well as, of course, all other common image formats; more than 300 camera models and over 950 lenses are supported. DxO’s library of optical modules contains detailed knowledge about cameras and lenses in order to automatically remove distortion, vignetting, and chromatic aberration.
The Lens Softness tool automatically optimizes the overall sharpness of images; with Smart Lighting’s spot mode and its face-detection feature, automatic corrections can be applied usefully. Red eyes are also corrected quickly, and the selective tonal values have also been improved. You can find an overview of all DxO OpticsPro features here.
