The software was originally developed by Nik Software in the late 90s, and then acquired by Google in 2012. If you’re a long time user of the Nik Collection, then you may recall its history.

As in years past, DxO asked me to join them on their virtual press tour to show off the newest Nik Collection 4 features to the global press - and I’d like to share that demo with you. DxO has just released the latest version of the Nik Collection, DxO Nik Collection 4.

New adjustments like highlight, midtown and shadow controls, white balance, and ClearView make their way into some filters, and the new Meta-presets bring creative new one-click looks to your photos. With new Color Selectivity control over your U-Points / Control points (allowing you to contract or expand your mask), and the ability to rename control points and save them into presets, it makes them more powerful than ever. Nik Collection 4 by DxO is a fantastic upgrade, including a complete rewrite of two of the most important filters - Viveza and Silver Efex Pro.
