DxO PhotoLab 9 New Features Overview (2025) - Does It Live Up to the Hype?

TL;DW (Too Long; Didn't Watch) DxO have done a great job with PhotoLab 9 (AI Masks, Batch Renaming, etc.). I was sent an early copy of PL9 to test drive, but this is my own (currently limited, more testing to come) opinion. I love using DxO PhotoLab, but it's not for everyone. Should you upgrade from PL8? Probably not... (Earlier version? Upgrade!) If you don't have a copy of PL, get it, it's the best it's ever been and you won't regret it (use "CorneliusM15" at checkout for a 15% discount, new customers only). Hope you found it useful, I enjoyed making it. Learning as I go along and sharing the stoke. Let’s go!
