I used the previous free SE for a long while with my LX3 and welcomed the freebie being updated to V8.Ĭan never have too many tools to work with, so I use DxO, Silkypix, Affinity and other odd ones at times.īeing closer to the heart of the Japan camera industry Silkypix seems to get new cameras incorporated quickly and also now have free versions for all of Panasonic, Fuji, Pentax/Ricoh, Casio, Tamron and Nokia Lumia, plus the free Nikon NX-D is a special unbranded version of Silkypix by the same software company.įeature differences found at and add in the version to compare with.Įurope and USA may be diverted to local sales offices, in Australia we buy it from Japan directly.
Lately they added one click colour neg film reversal to V10 for those who use cameras to scan their old films.
Later I went to DxO because our Aussie dollar to Yen rate went so bad, but recently looped back to V10 Silkypix as I miss some of the features and method of operation. I find Silkypix to be the most complete and easy to use converter, maybe because I was using it since it first made its way into English at V2 I think.

If somehow it provides better conversion than what I use now, ON1, I would download it and use it to convert the few photos I want the very best from to TIFFs for further processing in Affinity Photo. Nice to use when familiar with it, it simply uses different terminology to others. I used SilkyPix many years ago with Fuji files, and wow, was it's own beast. If Affinity seems to be struggling, I'll try in Silkypix instead. If I do use Silkypix, I'll do a basic RAW development and pass a 16 bit tiff to Affinity for further work. I also used Silkypix on a picture recently which raised the shadows much better than Affinity did, as it knew about the i.Dynamic setting in the camera. On other cameras, Affinity will make blown highlights pink, but Silkypix can recover something reasonable. I just recovered a blue sky from a Panasonic RAW, and a Fuji RAW, where Affinity just shows featureless white. What's more useful is it knows about what to do with nearly blown highlights. For example, it knows about the Fuji film simulations and you can apply whichever one you want (which I usually don't care about). It knows most, if not all the camera options, so by default it'll produce something which looks more like the camera will make. It's not doing a generic job, it actually knows what it's doing. What is really useful about Silkypix is it knows about the actual camera and RAW format. Most of the controls are pretty much the same as any other RAW developer. I don't find it particularly horrible, it's got the most sensible tone curve tool I've found so far.

I find Silkypix useful enough that I paid for the pro version. I did a forum search and found lots of hits, but nothing that really answered this for me.
SilkyPix is just generic, and I guess likely was not designed with proprietary info from Panasonic like the Canon-provided converter is for Canon, for instance. I know that the manufacturer raw conversion software that a couple companies provide is claimed by a few people to do better conversion than third-party software, but I really wonder in this case. SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro9 adds new functions that were highly desired in addition to the rich features of SILKYPIX so far.Finally made it to the part of my new G9's Advanced Manual (page 300, woohoo!) where it says you can download a free copy of SilkyPix Developer Studio SE8, and am wondering if it is worth the bother?
This product is RAW development software for professional. Extending and improving existing functions further improved operability and convenience. Main new functions are "Dehaze function", "individual adjustment of Highlight / Shadow", "lens profile function" and so on. SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro adds new functions that were highly desired in addition to the rich features of SILKYPIX so far. SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro 11.0.4.1 macOS
