As a result, other software has improved to the point that in some cases other tools will provide better results. There have been very few new features or other meaningful updates in the last few years. While I'm impressed with the overall quality of the plug-ins in the Nik Collection by DxO, it is also worth noting that these applications haven't been significantly updated in quite some time. I recommend using other tools (such as Lightroom, Camera Raw, or third-party apps) for noise reduction, rather than using Dfine. I don't consider the noise reduction in Dfine (part of the Nik Collection now offered by DxO Software) to be particularly good. Do you think it is at the same level as other software? I'm wondering, however, what you think of the quality of the noise reduction with the Dfine plug-in included in the Nik Collection.
Your new course on the Nik Collection from DxO got me interested in this bundle of plug-ins again.

Here is a copy of the Octonewsletter about Dfine by professional photographer and educator Tim Grey. Just remember that Prime NR can only be used on raw files. In the landscape square, DxO produces the best result by a wide margin. In the above study, I disregarded the stars because who knows what's noise and what's a star. If you shoot a lot at high ISO, or with small sensors, it's worth the money. I'd day the strength of DxO Prime NR is that it does high ISO noise reduction without a lot of effort on your part. Of course Nik Dfine is free, but so are RawTherapee and other programs such as GIMP Wavelet NR that can produce great results, with effort. Has anybody tried both programs and give an opinion on it?
I’ve seen many post comparing it to the “limited” ability of LR in this field but no comparisions with the Nik program for noise reduction. I’’m thinking on buying DxO mainly because of the noise reduction capacities of the prime noise in the Elite version.
