DxO has released PureRaw 2.1 with Apple silicon native compliance, new camera support and improved workflow. The interface of the new version is up to 10 times faster on Apple's M-series processors, the company said.
NEW FEATURES
- Apple Silicon: Rosetta is no longer needed with support for the M1 and M2 chips at a user interface level. PureRAW 2's interface consequently runs up to 10 percent faster.
- New Camera Support: With this release, the list of modules has reached 74,000 combinations and includes the Canon R5 C/R7/R10 as well as the Leica M11.
- Improved Workflow: The new version adds new workflow settings to streamline Raw processing, including a greater number of renaming options when generating files.
PRICE, AVAILABILITY
The upgrade to version 2.1 of the $129 PureRaw is free for all customers who currently own version 2. A 30-day trial is also available.
DxO PureRAW 2, the award-winning Raw photo converter, gets an Apple Silicon boost and a host of other upgrades
DxO PureRAW 2 now fully leverages Apple's M1 and M2 processors with full Apple Silicon native compliance. Version 2.1 also adds support for Canon's latest EOS R mirrorless cameras and rolls out smarter options for batch processing.
PureRAW 2 is accelerated by Apple Silicon
Despite receiving a big update to optimize speed just a few months ago, we knew that we could get more from DxO PureRAW 2 on Apple's latest architecture. Now fully compliant with Apple's revolutionary Silicon, DxO PureRAW Version 2.1 not only uses the neural processor architecture for Raw image processing, but also benefits from working with the M1 and M2 chips at a user interface level. As there's no need for Rosetta, PureRAW 2's interface runs up to 10 percent faster.
New models to benefit from DxO PureRAW 2
DxO PureRAW 2 not only brings unrivaled detail and quality to Raw photo processing in its denoising and demosaicing, but also uses DxO's exclusive Optics Modules to improve lens sharpness while correcting distortions, aberrations and vignetting. These Optics Modules are painstakingly produced in DxO's purpose-built labs and include not only highly accurate lens profiles, but bespoke sensor and optical combinations. With DxO PureRAW v2.1, the list of Modules reaches 74,000 combinations and includes the most exciting new Canon mirrorless models: the EOS R7 and EOS R10.
Also among the new models included in DxO PureRAW's extended coverage are the Canon EOS R5 C and the Leica M11.

Improved workflow
The latest version of DxO PureRAW also adds new workflow settings that streamline Raw processing, letting photographers spend more time shooting and less time editing. For instance, version 2.1 provides a greater number of renaming options when generating files, joining other smart options to guarantee smoother, more efficient Raw photo management.
