Verdict: 4.4 stars PureRAW 5 brings an even newer, even better DeepPRIME XD3 denoising process, XD3 X-Trans sensor support in beta, new local adjustments for selective sharpening and denoising and new custom presets for export. The results are quite amazing, as ever, though it’s hard to see any visible improvement over the earlier DeepPRIME XD2 process and there are a couple of niggly little operational glitches.
Edge softness
Edge softness is a very common characteristic of lenses. In fact, even the best lenses resolve less detail at the edges of the frame than the center – though it's only when edge softness becomes visible to the naked eye that it becomes an issue. It usually goes uncorrected, even in software, except for DxO's lens correction profiles, which makes DxO's lens corrections more advanced than others.
