Enriched with exclusive features including an Adobe Photoshop Lightroom plug-in, DxO Optics Pro v4.5 software demonstrates DxO’s continued commitment to providing photographers worldwide with an unrivalled set of digital imaging software tools...DxO Optics Pro v4.5 includes the previously announced free Flickr Export plug-in allowing automatic login, tagging and fast uploading of DxO Optics Pro processed images to Flickr.com, the wildly popular photo-sharing Web site."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/Integration_LR.jpg" /><br /><br />DxO Optics Pro is an impressive tool, and with this update it offers even more bang for the buck. As someone who has bounced back and forth between Lightroom and DxO Optics Pro, the thought of combining them into one RAW workflow is quite appealing. What I found particularly fascinating is that they've started to use the GPU with this release, finally tapping into that more or less wasted 3D rendering powerhouse that sits idly by doing nothing when you're not playing games (or flipping through the Aero 3D interface on Vista). Keep it up DxO!
