But what about Aperture? Can DxO Optics Pro work with it too? I explain how this works in the article, DxO Optics Pro 9.5 Intelligent Integration with Lightroom on c't Digital Photography Magazine. With the latest version, DxO can integrate smoothly into a Lightroom workflow. Image from Aperture opened in DxO Optics Pro 9.5. The program includes an array of useful tools for Aperture users such as noise reduction, lens corrections, geometric straightening, intelligent presets, and more. The software engineers at DxO Image Science have created a modern, powerful RAW processing app with DxO Optics Pro 9.5.
