I have them all, topaz, Nik, DPP, DXO 9 and LR. I much prefer LR for everyday stuff, but when I have a very high iso image I process it with the DXO LR plugin. The user interface of DXO is very cumbersome compared to LR. I can t really see much of a difference, DXO looks like it can capture a bit more highlight detail and as said the NR on high iso images work well. For normal use it looks more 'digital' to me than LR..

But if its free, well then why not?

Hi J.R.

Cheers, Graham.

Is anyone able to get this to work? I'm submitting the required information but the page simply reloads when I click "Submit".

Downloaded, installed and played with a bit. Thanks for the link.

Thank you so much for sharing this link. I downloaded and installed the program this morning and it works like a charm.

Mine won't activate with the activation code. I get an error "DatabaseCannotBeOpened".

Edit: I tried repeatedly attempting to activate and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software. I encountered a variation of the error a few times, "DatabaseCannotBeOpenedShop". I'm not sure what "Shop" refers to.

The good news is that I found other instances on other forums of this happening with similar giveaway promotions. It seems that this error should resolve itself within a few hours or a day or so. It's most definitely on DxO's side from what I've read.

So, we just need to be patient it seems.

Hi Mitch.
I would take a guess that their server is seeing more traffic this week than for the last month or two! ;D Just needs time to catch up!

Cheers, Graham.
