DxO PhotoLab 6 introduces a new XD (eXtreme Details) taproom mode that adds extra quality to the photographer’s raw files. Ideal for high ISO images, it removes noise, regains previously unseen details, and restores vivid, natural colors.
DeepPRIME XD uses a neural network trained using billions of image samples and regularly gives photographers more than 2.5 stops of improvements. For example, an image taken at ISO 4,000 will closely resemble an image taken at ISO 500 in terms of noise, color, and clarity. And because it’s the foundation for raw transitions, DeepPRIME XD can even increase dynamic range, providing photographers with more flexibility when shooting in low-light situations. The original DeepPRIME mode is also still used for faster enhancements or for images that require less adjustment.
In addition, PhotoLab 6 introduces redesigned color processing algorithms that push the boundaries of color management and a new, expanded color space. These are complemented by a soft test mode to ensure accuracy throughout the workflow, allowing photographers to make adjustments to the way their photos will be reproduced for display. , whether it’s on a high-definition screen or as art prints.

Photographers can now transform sources through reflection, rotate and scale, or use brushes to refine the area they’re editing into a more precise shape. New tools ensure fewer trips outside of DxO PhotoLab for complex copying and healing tasks, and speed up workflow while ensuring that editing never moves away from the original raw file. head and thus remain undamaged.
