DxO Releases PhotoLab 10 With AI Add-Ons, Masking, and Color Grading Updates
DxO has released PhotoLab 10, the latest iteration of its well-regarded photo-editing software, with a focus on deeper RAW processing capabilities and AI-driven masking tools. The update continues DxO's pattern of incremental but meaningful improvements, this time targeting areas where previous versions left users reaching for third-party solutions.
The AI masking enhancements are among the most substantive additions in this release. By leaning on machine learning to identify and isolate subjects, skies, and other regions within an image, PhotoLab 10 aims to reduce the manual selection work that has traditionally been one of the more time-consuming parts of a RAW editing workflow. The practical result is faster, more accurate selections - particularly useful when working with complex scenes or fine details like hair and foliage.
Color grading also receives attention in this version, with new controls designed to give photographers more nuanced influence over tones and hues at different luminosity levels. This category of tooling has become a baseline expectation in professional editing software, and the updates here appear aimed at closing the gap with competing applications that have offered more granular color controls for some time.
DxO has long distinguished itself through its optics correction engine, which applies lens- and camera-specific corrections automatically when working with RAW files. PhotoLab 10 builds on that foundation, and the new AI features sit alongside those existing strengths rather than replacing them. For photographers already invested in the DxO ecosystem, the update represents a more complete all-in-one option - one that requires fewer roundtrips to other tools to finish a typical edit.
