DPReview Reviews DXO Optics Pro

September 8, 2004 | Mark Goldstein | Software | Comment |

I thought DPReview only reviewed digital cameras, but today they have published a review of DXO Optics Pro, a software package that is designed to enable digital camera owners to correct images which suffer from distortion, vignetting, blur and chromatic aberrations.

“DxO is very easy to use and allows for automation as it requires virtually no user intervention. This benefit is at the same time a disadvantage because the results are “as is” due to the lack of user adjustable parameters or sliders. In theory this should not be necessary because DxO uses tailored mathematical models which take into account specific camera-lens combinations. But in reality, the distortion, chromatic aberration, and vignetting results were only partial.”
