Nik Collection 6.3 release

@Egregius – to complement ( with PL7.02 Build83 and Nik6.4 ) …

I exported the very same raw-file ( nef / camera was set to AdobeRGB ) as TIFF

  • to disk
  • to the Nik Collection

.
Export to disk → Same as Soft Proofing or sRGB, P3, ARGB, Rec, DxOWG, ProPhoto

Softproof settings [ DxO Wide Gamut not listed ! ]

Export to Nik Collection → Same as Soft Proofing or sRGB, P3, ARGB, Rec, DxOWG, ProPhoto

  • Export to disk
    The exported files always corresponded to the chosen target profiles.

  • Export to Nik Collection
    The exported file only corresponded to the sRGB target,
    while all others were limited to AdobeRGB.


Then I repeated the same test with original *.tif files (AdobeRGB and ProPhoto color space).

In all cases the exported files corresponded to the chosen target profiles,
changing the color space accordingly to smaller or wider gamut !

[ While at first I had thought, that the Nik Collection was limited to handle sRGB and AdobeRGB color space only – and the other export options just a mistake, ‘exporting’ *.tif files ( → using the “Nik Collection” button ) proved that wrong. ]


… which means, when exporting a RAW-file from PL to Nik as TIFF
(and I tried Nik tools affecting color as well the ‘neutral’ Output Sharpener)
we get some misleading results !
