It is good for quick stuff but it is hard to beat decent selective masks based on luminosity or colour range. Rob, I do not see U Point as the be all and end all of masking. Leave out the raw and the Library though and Luminar still makes a reasonably decent Lr plugin and it plays nice enough with PhotoLab…but PL has Nik, although the Luminar approach to the workflow is far easier to work with imo.

That has an incomplete DAM/Library and ì do not expect the raw development filter to have improved. Version three is due out in a week or two.

Greed took over with the second rate attempt to bring Windows to the party together with the attempt to milk the Adobe subscription cow.

Luminar has loads of things that are bad, even on Mac (which I use) but the concept is great as was the very first release which was Mac only and an alternative to Nik. Or look at the Luminar team, that announced their DAM for a wrong date and earned the biggest shitstorm of the history. Just look at the reactions, if a lense support is announced for fall, and does not arrive in fall, but on the first week of winter. I would also not communicate more than what is currently under development and what might be the next steps without a specific date. “What” and “when” are complex things to answer, and it causes frustration, when the “what” order shifts, or the “when” takes longer than expected. Mixing two UI technologies in one tool is the worst thing, one can do. Everything you see, the whole UI does not work well with the UI technology used by PL. From NIK they can carry over only the filter knowhow anyway. It would surprise me very much, if NIK would be integrated like Filmpack some day, but I do not expect it to happen any time soon. It is like a building, where you want to replace the foundation. If a tool is not designed and implemented with performance in mind, it is hard to attach performance afterwards.

If such big operations are started, it normally takes many years, where a substantial part of the old code has to be thrown away and rewritten from scratch. It is a really difficult, sometimes impossible task, to bring two growing structures together, which were not intended to work together.

The problem of integrating is that NIK and PhotoLab are based on different code, written by completely different companies, without common architecture and most likely not event the same coding technology. I think, it is a good idea to become independent of Lightroom Classic CC, because it probably will be killed after Lightroom CC grows up. To be realistic, I would see these points distributed over a 5 years plan. In between they might implement “low hanging fruits” in the dot releases and keep up with the support of new cameras and lenses. NIK belongs into the category layer/pixel editing, which is only at the end of a workflow tool pipeline, and is really optional. What is unclear for me is still how “NIK integration” fits in all this. Then better color management will hopefully be implemented, like better HSL or a color manipulation panel like in C1, because this is this feature, that is mentioned as a C1 advantage over DxO in press.Then some day we will hopefully get better masking capabilities like lightness masks, color range masks, better auto masks.Next point also asked for by some folks is support for watermarks on exported images and the possibility to batch assign common metadata templates like copyright information to images.What is also missing for a workflow tool, is better hardware binding like direct image import from camera and tethering for the most common brands.

The DAM part is on the way, a big missing part here are hierarchical keywords, XMP write support and the capability to organize files and folders inside the tool including creation of folders, renaming, moving, full clipboard support.The DCP profiles are realized, so people, that want to achieve color fidelity, can have it now.My interpretation of DxO activities is the following: We are moving away from a plain raw developer to a complete workflow solution, like Lightroom Classic, or like On1 Raw wants to be.
