Key features Analog Efex Pro 3 has been redesigned to bring it in line with the rest of the Nik plug-ins, and the preset navigation bar on the left is now much more straightforward to browse and use.

Let’s take a look at the eight Nik Collection plug-ins in turn.Īnalog Efex Pro 3, updated in this latest version, can create all manner of classic film looks but goes further with antique and lo-fi camera effects too, such as multiple exposures, movement blur and more. There is some crossover with DxO’s FilmPack 6 software, but that’s more for technical film simulations – Analog Efex Pro 3’s effects are a lot more varied.Ĭolor Efex Pro 5, also updated in Nik Collection 5, is like a filter suite on its own, offering a range of more traditional photographic effects like levels and curves, graduated filters, soft focus, old photo looks, image toning and coloring amongst around 50 different filters – and these can be combined for practically limitless variations. Silver Efex Pro 3, updated and modernized in the previous version, is one of the best known (and best) creative black and white tools you can get.
