One-way-tripping to Aperture as a TIFF is my only way to get to the Portraiture plug-in. In Aperture, I performed some minor blemish-removal, a slight white-balance shift (cooler), and then ran it through my Portraiture plug-in at default settings:įor convenience’s sake, I stopped using DxO a while ago, but using a dedicated RAW developer as a front-end for portraiture work now seems like a no-brainer. Sort of going a bit off-topic here, but I just ran a DxO NEF-conversion on the same file, then exported a 16-bit TIFF for import into Aperture. So far, I can’t get anywhere near the same results from the BeFunky plug-in, so my greatest hope for Photos is for Imagenomic to release their own Photos extension (lack of Portraiture plug-in compatibility was also a major reason I’ve discounted Capture One Pro).ĭxO Optics Pro -> Aperture -> Portraiture: Some minor retouching, color-correction, and levels were adjusted in Aperture, then run through Imagenomic’s Portraiture plug-in. JPG (from the original NEF RAW file) using default conversion presets. The image shown in the Photos screen-grab above is just an export of an Aperture-produced. OpticsPro and other soon-to-be-released plug-ins are mentioned on Apple’s own site ( HT205245) as well as on DxO’s site ( …). Iridient is also now offering a RAW developer Photos extension for download (but not available from the AppStore). Pixelmator is planning to release “Distort, “ but I was hoping for a more generalist plug-in from them.
What I think is really exciting is the upcoming release of DxO’s OpticsPro for Photos, a Photos extensions plug-in with lens-correction features (hopefully they’ll include their extensive lens database). Tonality by MacPhun (black-and-white conversion).Well, I’m giving Photos a go, and I’ve just begun to export a bunch of RAW files from Aperture of a portrait session I shot a while back on a Nikon D800E. Last night, I purchased three Photos-specific extensions from the AppStore:
