While the improvements are real and discernible it takes some pixel peeping to appreciate. To be fair this is much faster than exporting a DNG, reimporting and processing that but is slow enough that I now save up a group of files to batch process while doing something else. RAW files definitely show reduced noise and slightly more detail but processing through DeepPRIMEXD is significantly slower taking around 3 times longer (around a minute per file instead of under 20s with my M1Pro MacBook). To cut to the chase – it does but at a cost. I have been very impressed by the original DeepPRIME so was intrigued to see if XD lived up to the promise. I am quite surprised that they didn’t use this as a marketing opportunity as I’m sure I’m not the only one who has been frustrated by the incomplete support for the Nikon Z9.ĭeepPRIMEXD (Extra Detail) has been promoted as a step up from DeepPRIME with improved noise control and detail. The DxO website now confirms compatibility so it was a website update needed rather than a software update. I was very pleasantly surprised to see that the files opened directly without the DNG workaround. I had hoped that this would support Nikon Z9 HE* RAW files but the website at launch suggested not.
My only frustration has been having to export my Nikon Z9 HE* RAW files as DNG before they could be processed through PureRAW.ĭxO recently released PureRAW3 which now includes their DeepPRIMEXD first released in PhotoLab6.
