ON1 Unveils Photo RAW, the First All-New RAW Processor in a Decade
I own and use the On1 Photo10 plugin. It is may favorite plugin for creating derivatives.
I'm encouraged to see On1 competitively engage Adobe's ACR. They are promoting this as a replacement for ACR, Lightroom and Photoshop. Pricing is annually $150USD and entitles the user to a perpetual license. The Annual costs entitles the user to continuous upgrades. The end result is a product that might replace ACR & Photoshop They don't call it a subscription, but it amounts to the same end result while retaining a perpetual license when ever the user stops the renewal. I think a interesting licensing scheme that Adobe should have probably implemented that would not have ruffled feathers of so many LR users.
Perhaps the most glaring assumption is that this On1 product is a replacement for LR. Without a DAM tool like LR, how are you ever going to be able to find the one image that you want out of the 10's of thousands of images processed and the derivatives that were generated as a result of the On1 post processing? Perhaps there will be an ON1 Photo RAW plugin that will let you use the Excellent LR organizing tools and bypass the ACR Component of LR.
