Unfortunately, camera manufacturer software is only now reaching a level of ease-of-use that’s attractive to users, and who wants to learn a new image processing application if you’re comfortable with your existing workflow (even if you’re sacrificing a bit of quality)?ĭxO PureRaw is a solution. This is one reason why raw files processed in software provided by camera manufacturers generally result in sharper, more detailed, and less noisy images. Most major image processing software companies pay less attention to raw file conversion than to image adjustment.

DxO’s new PureRaw software performs that step, then passes the image file to your favorite software for adjustment. That first processing step, converting unprocessed data to a viewable image, is the most critical aspect of getting an optimal result. This data is first processed in a raw file converter by image processing software before image adjustments (white balance, exposure, contrast, etc.) can be performed.

Raw files record the numerical data that the sensor measures at each photosite. To achieve optimal quality in final image output, you must start by capturing images in a raw format file.
