DxO PhotoLab 4
DxO PhotoLab is a professional photo editing and raw processing application designed for photographers who work with RAW files from digital cameras. It is particularly strong in noise reduction via its DeepPrime AI engine, optical corrections using lens and camera profiles, and batch processing of large photo libraries. PhotoLab supports raw files from most major camera manufacturers including Canon, Nikon, Sony, and others, and includes tools for exposure adjustment, white balance correction, and fine-tuning before export. It is widely used by both amateur and professional photographers as an alternative to Adobe Lightroom, especially those seeking a perpetual-license model rather than a subscription.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionDxO PhotoLab 4 is an older version of the application. The current major version is DxO PhotoLab 9, and the developer continues to release updates regularly. According to community reports, DxO has been working on native Apple Silicon support — notably, the development team was waiting for an ARM-native SDK before releasing certain features, which indicates active work on Apple Silicon compatibility. To check whether the latest version of PhotoLab now runs natively on your Mac, visit DxO's official website and download the current build. If your copy is still on version 4, upgrading to the latest version will likely provide native Apple Silicon support along with many improvements to raw file compatibility, DeepPrime noise reduction, and camera profile coverage. Check the release notes on the DxO website for confirmation of native Apple Silicon support in the version you are upgrading to.
