The company also says that since it is connected directly to the RAW conversion process, the DeepPRIME XD can also increase the dynamic range in RAW files allowing photographers to have greater flexibility when shooting in low-light situations. Meaning an image shot at 4,000 ISO will look closer to an image captured at 500 ISO in terms of color, clarity, and overall noise.

The company says the DeepPRIME XD uses a neural network that has been trained using billions of image samples and can provide photographers improvements of more than 2.5 stops.

Leveraging machine learning, the software can remove noise, retrieve previously unseen details, and restore vibrant natural colors to images that would have otherwise been archived and unused. The most prominent feature in this latest flagship edition of DxO PhotoLab(6) is DxO DeepPRIME XD (Extreme Details), an AI-powered RAW conversion technology that, according to the company, “redefines industry standards for denoising and detail enhancement.” This new mode will allow for much greater detail retention and noise reduction in photographers’ RAW files shot with high, and extremely high ISO settings. PhotoLab 6 adds powerful new artificially intelligent (AI) technology to its denoising, advanced color management, improved retouching tools, and several refinements to its library system, while ViewPoint 4 adds a new powerful ReShape tool for local adjustments, improved cropping and rotation, better guides for enhanced alignment, a more refined user interface, and the addition of full Apple Silicon support.
