I bought the DXO software suite (actually just pulled the trigger before the 50% BF discount expires, otherwise it would have been way beyond my budget). Maybe landscape photographers coulkd find find this helpfull too, but I can't really comment on that I didn't find much use for the 10-24mm before, because of these deformations, that made my images look pretty much like special effects showcases. I do mostly street photography, with humans in the frame and this is maes me re-assess my lens choices. This alone justifies the expense for Viewpoint if you shoot with wide angle lenses. Some of the image has got lost at the edges because of the neccesary cropping, but no a big deal. The correction is pretty spectacular, IMHO. On the right, the result fro DXO with Viewpoint deformation correction control enabled. Here's the result.įirst, a test shot with the 10-24mm On the left, the raw file as developed by Lightroom (same result in CaptureOne). I thought at first, 'what the heck, should I pay extra to get keystoning? Don't count on me!!' but finally I downloaded the thing and tested on some wide angle shots. This is about the Viewpoint add-on, mostly. Not going to do a full review though, unless I get free copies from DXO -) Rebalance landscape photos by automatically straightening a slanted horizon line.Hi, I am testing the new X-Trans support in DXO software, so I though I should share some of my findings. With its Optics Module database, the only one of its kind in the world, it can correct any type of distortion, including barrel, pincushion, and even fisheye effects.

For natural-looking shapes, automatically correct the volume deformation of faces, bodies, and objects at the edges of photos taken with a wide-angle lens.

Use anchor points or the software's automatic feature to correct skewed perspectives in wide-angle photos, from the simplest to the most complex. As both a standalone application and as a plugin, it offers simple visual tools for making spectacular corrections, along with advanced controls for unrivaled precision. It is the indispensable companion to your wide-angle lens, correcting perspectives and easily restoring the natural shapes of the subjects located along image edges.
