DXO Once a year Black Friday Sale (expiration date not known).

https://shop.dxo.com/en/

Photolab 7 $229 $169

PureRaw 3 $129 $89

FilmPack 7 $139 $89

ViewPoint 4 $99 $49

Nik Collection 6 $149 $99

I've used the 30 day trial of PureRaw3 and it's been a great program that is now indispensable for my purposes. I've read online that the software is discounted only once a year at Black Friday then it's back to regular price until next year. I've been watching the prices since the beginning of summer and that seems to be true. It still isn't "cheap" but it does exactly what I need.

The Photolab 7 is a Lightroom competitor without the Creative Cloud subscription. You bought it and you got it, no monthly fees (it also includes the capabilities of PureRaw).

Free 30 day trials are available to see if they meet your needs. The expiration date of the sale is not known, but it certainly will be over before the 30 days of the trial is up....
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

PR is not a RAW editor like Camera Raw. It processes raw files with very detailed sharpening and noise reduction and other tweaks that makes a photo taken at a high ISO look like it was taken at a low ISO. It prepares photos for further processing in a RAW editor.

Photolab 7 is a RAW editor that has more adjustments and capabilities than Photoshop's Camera Raw editor and it also has the PureRaw capability built in. It's similar to Lightroom but without the subscription.

I feel like the NIK collection was 50% ($75) off in previous Black Friday sales. I'm still using my old, free Google-era NIK but I would upgrade at $75.

How does PureRaw 3 compare to Photoshop's RAW editor?

Maybe for upgrader? Says "up to 50%"

I got in last year, so will skip this iteration and see what PhotoLab 8 has to offer.
Nothing "must have" in PL7 coming from PL6.

I too am still using the free version of Nik as a Photoshop plugin.

Garbage deal. The whole "up to 50%" is a sneaky way for potential shoppers to purchase their software. For years since Nik Collection 3, everytime they had this type of sale, it was 50% off. So the Collection upgrade which normally retails for $79 would be $39. This year, it's "discounted" to $65. There are times throughout the calendar year in which the upgrade is $59. Unless they honor the $39 price, I will not be getting the Nik Collection 6 upgrade.

Try better DxO.

Thanks! Buying pureraw. I have photolab 6, but all the tools are useless to me. This is a perfect compliment with Lightroom and photoshop.

I hear that, but last year they did the same thing and Photolab 6 was $149 instead of $219. It wasn't 50% off then, either lol.

I really wanted to get it after trying the demo last year. I actually liked it better than lightroom.

Have to say a non-cloud version of Lightroom is good…but why? I purchased Lightroom way back (maxed at v3.6) and I wasn't impressed, neither was my wife who is a graphic designer and uses PS daily. There are free options that beat Lightroom with ease.

Would you mind sharing the name of some? I am a photography novice but found it fairly easy to use.

I have yet to find a true replacement for Lightroom. If you have some options, please share, I'd love to know what you found.

FYI, Lightroom is primarily a quick editor and non-destructive. It works on RAW images, and has a good collection of lens corrections. Lastly, it can be used to organize and catalog all of your photos, adding tags and ratings so you can find stuff and filter down to what you want. It's not meant to be a full-blown photo editor like Photoshop or Affinity Photo.
