This is one of the most comprehensive plug-in suites ever created, and with frequent updates, it’s easy to see why the Nik Collection is once again growing in functionality and indeed popularity. The Nik Collection 4 by DxO is the latest version of the unwaveringly popular plug-in suite for Photoshop and Lightroom Classic. Nik Collection 5 is on sale now at a price of $149/£135 (about AU$214) for new users and $79/£69 (about AU$114) for those upgrading from a previous version.The Nik Collection by DxO has seen some improvements in recent years, James Abbott takes a look at the latest version to see if it offers enough new features to be a worthy upgrade In one further change, Perspective Efex adds more than 4,300 camera and lens combinations to its database of correction profiles. This is very effective at restoring contrast in hazy landscapes, but also adding ‘punch’ to flat looking images generally. On top of that, control points in these plug-ins now have Luminance and Chrominance sliders to fine-tune their masking effect.Ĭolor Efex Pro goes one better, now incorporating the ClearView technology from PhotoLab. It’s now possible to rename control points for easier identification and save them as part of presets for future use. The U Point adjustment tools are substantially upgraded too. They benefit from an interface update to replace their previously somewhat dated and technical appearance and bring them in line with Silver Efex Pro and Viveza.
