Not only is Black Friday is a great money saver when it comes to hardware or camera accessories, you can also save big on some of the best photo-editing software.
Black Friday software deals: DxO
For example DxO, which is now shaping up as one of the most innovative companies in photo editing, has savings of up to 50% on all Nik Collection and DxO software.
The Nik Collection is a suite of plug-ins for Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, Affinity Photo and DxO’s own PhotoLab. It includes Silver Efex, which remains the gold standard for black and white photo editing for many photographers, as well as HDR Efex, ColorEfex and more.
The plugs-ins enable you to edit your original image in a non-destructive way, but can also be used as standalone applications.
Another highlight is DxO PureRaw, an innovative plug-in for making the most of your raw files, including state-of-the-art noise reduction.
You can get the latest Nik Collection for £99, down from £135.
