Great !
Thanks for the pricing table.
Someone posted yesterday that DxO were going to launch this deal, so I checked this morning and there it was
I installed the trial version and it looks like it is a polished, robust and functional software.
A few disappointments is that nobody has figure out after several years, how to properly work with Rawburst files. It recognize them as a single image but you can not even select and extract, let alone extract them all automatically.
It also doesn't recognize Windows Quick Access folders. So I'd have to setup a set of favorites within the PL6. That sucks.
While they have a very extensive library of Camera-Lens profiles, they still don't cover situations when you use a SpeedBooster adapter or Diopters for Macros.
Because of this I hope the software can read user's customized lens profiles.
But for the price and the fact that you can install it in 2 or 3 PCs is not bad at all.
I'm more likely buying it at this price.
Too bad it doesn't process the RAW burst files correctly. After your previous posts, I tried the raw burst mode --- very impressive! I got 70+ images in a burst with a SanDisk Extreme Pro 256 GB card. There are some situations this will come in handy, like fast trains on a trestle! It's one of the many M6ii features I hadn't gotten to yet.
I upgraded ViewPoint 3 to 4 this time around, along with upgrading to PL6. VP 4 looks like it has some nice features like warp correction I could have used for some images. With extreme wides like the Laowa 9mm and Canon EF-M 11-22 at 11mm, the edges of the frame project a lot larger image than the center and it looks like VP4 lets you handle that.
