Both the Nikon and Sony files exhibited a lightness factor where I had to darken the exposure about ½ stop in most cases.

I tried some Nikon (D800E) and Sony (A7R III) camera profiles.

This was using a Lexar USB 3.0 card reader and the SD card was also Lexar (1000x). All of this was significantly faster than Lightroom. The actual import was quite fast too and I could start culling images right away. I popped a 64 GB card containing Sony 42MP files in my reader and the thumbnails came up very quickly. As soon as you hit the Export button you are returned to where you were and can continue working without any discernible performance hit (on my iMac.) The sliders within the various filters I tried all seem to remain speedy even during a fairly complex export.

Exporting in the background is really nice.

It takes 2-3 seconds (on my 2017 iMac 27” Retina) to render before you can zoom in to 1:1. You can browse images in the filmstrip in the Develop and Effects modules rapidly which I really like for culling because I can quickly apply an adjustment to see if the image will work for me.Likewise when switching to Develop I sometimes have to wait a couple seconds before being able to adjust an image, Although it would normally take longer than that to get to the desired adjustment slider anyway. The only exception is if I am in Develop I have to wait a second or two for the image to render before switching to Effects or Browse. It’s nearly instantaneous switching among modules. Speed has improved a lot, especially when switching from one module to another which I do often.If you end up buying it ON1 has promotions going now with some good discounts(including 50 LUTs, a “$50 value” as a bonus). Even if you don’t own 2018 it’s well worth trying it for free. Read on to see the changes I think are important. I’ll continue to use ON1 Photo Raw as my main raw processor and look forward to more improvements. The ability to nest and organize presets is awesome.

I have mixed feelings about the camera profiles, especially the Fuji film simulations and I think the implementation of raw + jpeg grouping is very good and oh-so-close to what I want but not quite everything I want is there yet. So if you’re a current owner of Photo Raw 2018 I see no downsides to updating.

There are a lot of new features in 2018.5, many of them useful, and if you own Photo Raw 2018 it’s free! Bottom line first Scroll down to see how it compares with Photo Raw’s Provia profile for Fuji X-Trans raw (.RAF) files
