DxO has announced updates to its PhotoLab 5, FilmPack 6 and the Nik Collection by DxO.
PhotoLab version 5.1 includes an improved user interface with GPS coordinates that display directly on Google Maps. There’s a revised photo filter menu that promises improved usability. DxO has added support for the Canon EOS R3, Ricoh GRIIIx, the Fujifilm X-T30 II and Fujifilm GFX 50S II. PhotoLab 5.1 also adds Chinese language support.
FilmPack 6.1 includes an improved workflow as well. The Time Machine feature that was added to FilmPack 6 when it released earlier this fall has a new one-click option to apply a particular look to images while browsing.
Nik Collection by DxO version 4.3 adds 35 new nature-inspired presets, adding to the existing suite of more than 250 presets. Nik Color Efex features ‘The Seasons,’ which are four presets that ‘evoke the different stages of the year.’ For example, Winter adds a chilly, cool atmosphere to your photos while Autumn pushes green foliage toward red, orange and yellow, adding warmth to your landscape photos.
Nik HDR Efex has five new presets within the ‘Tonal Landscapes’ series. Nik Analog Efex has six ‘Landscapes of Yesteryear’ presets to give your photos a vintage look and feel. Nik Silver Efex includes ‘Dramatic Landscapes’ presets, which promise to add detail and drama to black and white landscape photos.

For Adobe Photoshop users, there are six meta-presets, which are actions that combine filters and settings from other Nik Collection plugins. You can quickly transform photos in a single click.
DxO PhotoLab 5.1, FilmPack 6.1 and Nik Collection by DxO 4.3 are all available now as free updates for existing users. If you’re a new user, you can download free trials and view upgrade and new user pricing at the DxO Shop.
