DxO PhotoLab supports DNG format files, as long as they have been generated by Adobe Lightroom or Adobe DNG Converter, and as long as the original RAW format is also supported in the program. DxO PhotoLab will also accept DNG files created natively by supported cameras.


There are no DxO optics modules for any of my camera/lens combinations. Can I use DxO PhotoLab?

First of all, we want to stipulate that an optics module is only necessary for automatic correction of optical flaws (distortion, vignetting, chromatic aberrations, lack of sharpness). It is not required to have an optics module to work with RAW images (on condition that your camera is supported, which you can check here), and it is always possible to work with TIFF or JPEG image files.


Is DxO PureRAW included in DxO PhotoLab?

DxO PureRAW is not included in DxO PhotoLab, however DxO PhotoLab Elite Edition offers all the features of DxO PureRAW: RAW demosaicing, Denoising, Optical Corrections, Export Features, and Comparison.
