With its 55 exclusive filters, users can stylize their images whilst also giving them a unique feel and appearance. The ability to add the re-designed suite to Affinity Photo is not the only thing new in this version, though, as after adding ten new iconic black-and-white films to Silver Efex Pro 2, DxO has added five new types of classic colour films to Color Efex Pro 4.Ĭolor Efex Pro 4 is the creative colour plugin in Nik Collection 2 by DxO. The compatibility with Affinity Photo version 1.8, now announced, is official, though, and is the result of cooperation between Serif, the company behind the Affinity apps, and the team at DxO that continues to work the Nik Collection, which is, at the moment, one of the key “special effects” tool for photographers. The Nik Collection, which was initialy introduced as a plugin suite for Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom Classic, and Elements, is today much more than that, being – not officially – compatible with a variety of other photo editors, as long as they use plugins compatible with Photoshop.

I’ve used the Nik Collection in the past, also in the period when it was available for free, after Google bought the software and, after DxO acquired it, with DxO PhotoLab 2 Essential Edition, which I reviewed when it was launched. It’s a step in the right direction, as now I can use the immense creative potential of the Nik Collection with my photo editor of choice, Affinity Photo.
