I agree very much with this statement. To me the DXO film pack is a way to apply a desired photographic "look" in raw editing. I have a medium format film camera and scanner if I really want the...

Photophilia sounds like sexting.  I guess I'm just a photographer.

DXO uses an image browser which works with folders on your hard drive. There is no need to import as in Lightroom. It is usually DAM functions which require import and DXO doesn't have any such...

You need to create a virtual copy.  In the DXO image browser, right click on the image and select "create virtual copy".

When I start obsessing along these lines I just shoot with my lensbaby optics for a while and I am cured.

I'm already gone.  They will dangle everything they can to get you in, because once your in there is no reasonable exit.  Just like very other subscription model there is the price they use to lure...

The Ricoh GRD series has always used a 28mm equivalent lens and always been popular with street shooters who seem to like that focal length.  Its as simple as the manufacturer providing what its...

Something along these lines is what I first thought.  Digital photographers do much of their work on images that are going to be presented on the web at low resolution (compared to the native...

You might check with DXO to see if there is a way to use the color checker passport profile in DXO.  I generally find that the DXO camera specific color profiles are better than those of Lightroom.

The DNG's produced by DXO are linear DNG's so the data has been demosaiced, but the color information is still in the camera's native color space as opposed to a TIFF where both white balance is...

The On One Suite does bring the ability to use layers within Lightroom for those who lack Photoshop.  It has a free trial so you can see for yourself if it is something you would like.

Clumsily worded, but what she seems to be trying to say is that the "pro level" of membership on Flikr has had nothing to do with whether a photographer makes a living from selling photographs...

I agree and I have already moved on.  I never really cared for lightroom as a raw converter but used it for convenience.  The current situation, however, was all I need to upgrade my DXO Optics Pro...

Because we assumed that the new features in CS6 would actually work.  Instead CS6 is much buggier than CS5 and it now looks like they are never going to get fixed.  Based on the track record I am...

There are advantages and disadvantages of both.  Cropping on the PC has the advantage of more flexibility in where to place the crop and you can still maintain a copy the original image.  The...

My guess is HDR-like processing for the details.  Then create a toned black and white to blend with the color image.

Your analysis is spot on.  While I could afford to use Adobe CC (at least at current prices) this whole episode made me realize my vulnerability and that Adobe is not to be trusted for something I...

I have had similar issues with CS6 crashing my computer. I do still have CS5 on my computer so perhaps I should regress as well.

I agree with your statement that it puts Adobe in a strong position with respect to their accolytes.  On the other hand, I think Scott Kelby and others are going to lose a lot in terms of...

Richard,           I definitely agree with you.  I think we are starting to realize that having one company so dominant in photo processing software has not been a healthy thing for digital...
