![]() Next week, we’ll do a more extensive review of the improvements made in Version 3 along with the introduction of a new Perspective tool. The other programs in the Collection have added this non-destructive editing feature too. This week we’ve covered one of the main changes to Silver Efex. When Silver Efex opens up, you’ll see all the edits you had done previously. This time in the dialog box that appears you will need to take the option Edit Original instead of Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments. From Lightroom, you’ll still right-click and take the option Edit In > Silver Efex. There is one more change that you’ll need to make to the workflow to pick up the edits in Silver Efex Pro. Finally, click on the Preset drop-down box and take the option Save Current Settings as New Preset. In the Additional External Editor section, click on the Choose button and navigate to the Silver Efex Pro app on your hard-drive and then press the Choose button. If it isn’t on the list of programs available for editing, then you’ll need to add it in the Lightroom Preferences. Once installed, you can right-click on the image and take the option ‘Edit In’ and select Silver Efex Pro. The way you move from Lightroom to Silver Efex Pro hasn’t changed. We last looked at Silver Efex Pro in the Colour Pop Blog in November 2018. DxO has fixed this in version 3 of the Nik Collection with a non-destructive editing feature. The one problem we had is that if you wanted to make further changes to the edited photo, then you couldn’t pick up from where you left off. You can flick from the Adobe programs into any of the collection, make the changes and then save them back. What is non-destructive editing?Īll the Nik Collection tools integrate well with Photoshop and Lightroom. A new version of the Nik Collection suite was released last week which has a feature that’s been missing for ages, non-destructive editing. ![]() Initially produced by a company called Nik Software, they were acquired by Google and then sold on to DxO who are now doing some welcome developments. Pretty much every wedding photographer I know uses it as part of their workflow. One of the best black and white editing tools available is Silver Efex Pro. ![]()
