(Image credit: DxO)įinally, PhotoLab 4 adds support for a number of new cameras, including the Canon EOS R5, Canon EOS 850D (Rebel T8i), Nikon D6, Nikon Z5, Olympus OM-D E-M10 IV and Panasonic Lumix S5. PhotoLab is available in Essential and Elite editions (the Elite edition is needed for the key new features) and at a special price until November 19. PhotoLab 4 also makes it easier to copy settings from one image to another, as you can now do this selectively, choosing just those settings you want to apply, such as lighting, color, detail, geometry or local adjustments.
It can also ‘group’ adjustments, such as those made by presets. PhotoLab is a non-destructive editor so it can modify or remove past adjustments at any time, and now it has a new History palette which doesn’t just list all the editing changes, but their values too. The batch renaming feature is found in PhotoLab’s Photo Library window, and offers a range of options, including the ability to replace names, add text before or after existing names, renumber files and even search and replace text strings in filenames – like Adobe Bridge’s String Substitution feature. The filenames assigned to photos by your camera are not always useful or meaningful and may even be duplicated already on your computer.
New batch renaming featureīatch renaming is a useful feature to have. This is useful if you know there is a palette for a particular task but you don’t want to go digging through the rest of the palettes to find it (or you can’t remember which palette it’s in). Lastly, there’s now a search tool for, well, tools.
Its Smart Workspace now organises its tools into palettes based around correction types, it can be configured to show the user’s favourite palettes and it can also be set up to show only those palettes containing active corrections – this is especially useful if you use the preset effects. PhotoLab is a powerful but technical program, and DxO has made some modifications to the interface and workflow for this version. The PhotoLab workspace can get complicated, but PhotoLab 4's Smart Workspace options make it much simpler to find your way around.
