![]() ![]() GPU Processing – it was perfectly quick but on a quick machine, so “no comment”Īs before, it’s a very easy program to use – installing as a Photoshop, Lightroom or Aperture plug-in. ![]() Selective colorization – worked well once I got used to the U points.Image Borders – nice to find this integrated.Visual Presets – thumbnails on each preset encouraged me to try them.Amplify Blacks and Amplify Whites – I remain neutral about this.History Browser – good, session-only and like Photoshop except with more detail,.Nonetheless, I was looking forward to seeing Silver Efex Pro 2 and these seem to be the new features: I simply felt its price was steep, and I’ve not feel any real need for it. SEP1 was a very polished piece of software, produced good results quickly (even if I doubted the film simulations), and I could certainly see why people liked it so much. It’s not that I felt SEP1 deficient in any way – quite the contrary. But I’ve never seen doing a lot of b&w work as a reason why I would want to buy Nik’s Silver Efex Pro (SEP) or any of the other dedicated black and white plug-ins that it has now overshadowed. It’s very much the other way round, and I often look at pictures I’ve left in colour and think they’re rather monochrome anyway. I’ve never been one who photographs in colour and occasionally dabbles with black and white. ![]()
