It has also added more than 500 new optical modules to its library, bringing its total number of camera/lens combinations to 47,500 so your camera/lens, more than likely, is supported which gives you access to optical correction tools.īefore we take a closer look at the features/performance of the Nik Collection 2 by DxO, you may just want to know when it's available and for what price so here are the details: Nik Collection 2 by DxO is available for download on the DxO website for £86.99 instead of £125 (new purchases), and £49.99 instead of £69 for the upgrade until 30 June 2019. Now, in 2019, we have version 2 of the Nik Collection by DxO which introduces more presets and better performance on high-resolution screens. However, DxO stepped in to save the day in 2017 when they bought Nikon Collection from Google and since then, DxO has worked hard to fix bugs and to make sure it's compatible with the latest version of Adobe Photoshop, Elements, Lightroom and DxO PhotoLab. In 2016, Google announced that the Nik Collection would be made available as a free download but the software started to play-up, with bugs creeping in, and as Google wasn't developing it any further, it soon became awkward to use. To give you a bit of history, Nik software first introduced the Nik Collection then Google bought it from Nik software as they really wanted Snapseed - a photo editing mobile app that's still incredibly popular. The Nik Collection has always been a popular group of plugins which are compatible with Adobe, as well as DxO software. Some will purchase for Silver Efex Pro only so the other plugins could be redundant.

Price (some will argue there are plenty of free apps available).
