Nik Collection 3 still uses the company’s exclusive U-Point technology, allowing users to make local adjustments to specific areas of an image. There are almost 200 effects and filters including retouching tools. Nik Collection 3 by DxO includes eight plugins for Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom Classic, DxO PhotoLab and more.

I was given a reviewer code to download the update and give it a spin. As a long time user of the Nik Collection product suite, I’m excited to see some new additions and updates to their products. Incidentally, they all seem to work in Capture One too.DxO has released a major upgrade to the Nik Collection today. I’ll have more details when I get to try more tools. There is a lovely quality to the blur it uses. Its one of the few things I’ve played around with so far, but it’s really nice. There’s a cool one-click miniature effect in Perspective Efex. It’s the perfect plugin for creating natural-looking family and wedding photos with a more pleasing look! Use Perspective Efex to instantly correct distorted figures and faces that often appear at the edges of group and wedding photos taken with wide-angle lenses.

It’s the quickest and easiest way to fix the most complex geometric distortions – including barrel, pincushion, and even fisheye distortion. Using either automatic corrections or reference lines, Perspective Efex can correct keystoning in urban and architectural photos, no matter how complex.

Perspective Efex automatically corrects geometric flaws in your photos. Export images as TIFF files from Adobe Lightroom Classic and tweak your plugin edits as many times as you like while keeping your original adjustments completely safe and totally reversible. How would you like to be able to edit and re-edit your Nik plugin settings without destroying or losing any of the edits you’ve already made with Adobe Lightroom Classic? This brilliant new non-destructive workflow is exclusive to Nik Collection 3.
