New camera/lens support in previous Photolab major releases

would seem to indicate that DxO uses each lens and each body together (but, as expected, gives no indication how these tests are then used for camera and lens support “modules” in workflow such as PL-Elite). If this is correct, the number of combinations is very large, and DxO would continue to need obsolete bodies (e.g., Nikon D300) run through all of the new lenses that the body could support, as well as new bodies such as the Nikon Z9 combined with a huge number of lenses, some of which are obsolete but still in service with some photographers. Thus, I still suspect that the lenses and the bodies have separate modules. DxO does advertise the extensive database of camera and lens tests that it has and thus can create the necessary modules for PL, but this does not mean that every camera and lens combination individually has been tested for PL support.
