Along with PureRAW 3, DxO has also released PhotoLabs 6.4 as free upgrade for DXO PL 6 users which adds DeepPRIME XD for Fuji cameras as well (as well as better Nikon Z9 support and some other improvements which I don't remember now).

Still refuses to work with my Intel Arc A770 video card. FYI

DeepPrime XD on Xtrans using just the processor is still good, mind you, just not as fast as it could be. (I think. It is a really fast processor.)
 
Indeed, played with it yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by the results. For the most part, it’s noticeably better across the board. What surprised me the most was that even base iso images improve with deep prime xd. It’s bordering on whatever the ML equivalent of over-sharpened is, with some subtle false detail appearing, but turning down the noise model control solves that. My Fuji files never looked better. Massive improvement over Lightroom/ACR still too of course. Glad I upgraded from PL5.
 
I like it, but it does seem to change the colour and image a bit. Here's a before and after. Look at the out of focus house and the roof space at the back top centre. They are different sizes. Not sure if you can see it, but if you download the 'before' RAF file from here https://www.dropbox.com/s/r0bfhzf0h6dlwla/BSCF0040.RAF?dl=1 and run it through DXO, it produces a picture with a slider so you can see the changes.

Hi,

Thx. I'm thinking about buying PL. Are the house images different sizes? I'm not seeing it. There is a change in the lighting 'look' in the background. I don't know if that's purely through the development or chosen in some way.

There are magenta/green CAs on the OOF droplets either side of the point of focus in both. I don't know if either program has attempted to correct for them....

Regards, Rod

Is that perhaps because of lens corrections, that they look slightly different sizes?

What happens if you do the same in another raw editor, checking the image before and after lens distortion corrections?

It could be. I didn't look at the raw file myself. I just passed it to DXO and let it get on with it.

I supposed the same could be said of the slight colour variation - DXO has slightly different parameters for that X-T5/Lens combination than the camera itself.

The last point is certainly true. DxO colours are slightly different than the camera colours -- it's one reason why I love CaptureOne so much, the colours look great.

With most images a slight variation in colour doesn't bother me, but with some images that difference means a great deal to me as some images just lose all their lustre and rich colour when I process those with DxO, Affinity Photo, Exposure, or other tools which I've tried (but can't remember all of them right now...).
 
I tried PL6.4 DeepPrime XD and it worked great. The only problem was time. It took about 10 minutes per image. I don't have the fastest setup, but not the slowest.

Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700 CPU @ 3.40GHz 3.41 GHz, 16GB RAM.

In comparison the same image processed on Topaz DeNoise (severe noise) took 2 1/2 minutes. DeepPrime XD did look better.

I can't post these images, because they were taken at a concert and I don't have permission to post them publicly.
 
Mine took about 2 minutes on an I7-8700 with 16Gb memory and an Nvidia GTX 1060 graphics engine.

You need a fast graphics card. I can get 10 X-T3 images in 60 seconds. Nividia 3060Ti

That's it. Thanks. I just can't wait to tell my wife this.
