Thank you!

Anthony that DxO program Denoise is just awesome it worked so good and without taking very little sharpness away, thank you Anthony for showing this plug-in and how to access it in lightroom.

[charlescruze]

Thank you. An easier way to send the files to DXO-Oure Raw 2 is to select the files, then right click on the mouse, choose export then select DXO Pure Raw2 from the list. If you do the DXO default, the import is to a DXO sub directory created in the original folder. DXO causes LR to scan and import the images (this part of the process is slow if you work on multiple images at a time.). Depending on how you use layers, the DXO lens correction tool may cause some problems with layers in Photoshop. The sharpening effect is applied globally to the image so it may sharpen some areas of the image that detract from the subject

I wish there was a way to apply PureRaw during import into lightroom. I would run it on every image.

[harrisongould]

Nice, clean and precise… Just the way I like it. ❤

[daveisler]

Yes, I look forward to how to set up auto import folder. Your the best!

[jameslaskin]

Anthony, thanks for this video - super helpful. That said, do you prefer to use DXO prior to importing the image into LR or import first and then use the plugin? Thanks James

[dktraveller]

Hey Anthony, where is that Resize vs Gigapixel that you said you would do?

[ColdCoffeePhotography]

Great stuff as always, now looking at this software, wondered if you have an affiliate discount code for Pureraw 2 please?

[tengtan]

I note that the imported PureRAW dng file does not retain the keywords in the original LR RAW file. Have I missed a setting or is there a workaround?

[KellySWard]

Amazing! Can you send files to Pure Raw 2 from Adobe Bridge as well as from Lightroom?

[mladenerak]

I usually set a custom color profile on import of my RAW files. Does the plugin work with the original RAW (without the custom color profile)?

[billinglendaleca]

I'm on Windows and use the default output folder(DxO folder under the original) and it does auto-import in Lightroom.

[ZadakLeader]

Do you know after I export with DxO Pure Raw 2, if I import that in Lightroom, do I apply them again in the preview? If I do or not, if I export from Lightroom the image looks the same, but in the Develop it seems that Lightroom applies it again, having 2x lens distortion...? But again, if I import a DxO corrected image and even if I apply the correction again it won't show up in the file.

Does that make sense?

[Soul_Visuals_Photography]

It used to auto import my images back in but it no longer does this. Tried contacting support but wow they are slow.

[STACYBURK]

DXO is the best! I use it on all of my photos I really care about.
