In an extraordinary display of corporate generosity Google has now made the Nik Collection software completely free to download. Seem to remember this used to be quite pricy.

Re: Nik Collection now free
Thanks. I have already downloaded it on both my computers. It is used extensively by the top photographers in our Worksop Club, so I have notified our Secretary to circulate the link to others.
Now I have to learn how to use it! It looks good.
Once again thanks for the link. -
Re: Nik Collection now free
Now we have had this for a while, I would be interested if anyone uses any of it regularly and if so which modules.
Personally I like the Silver Effects and during use and a few tips from u-tube, etc have found that it is almost infinitely customisable, from frames to mono conversion and vignetting.
Other than that I have only used the other modules spasmodically and am still not too sure of the best ways to use them.

Re: Nik Collection now free
Yes my most used part of this download is the Silver efex, used for all my B/W conversions nowadays.Originally posted by Kurt View Post
I like some of the filter effects you can get with Colour efex. great for sunsets etc.
The others I don't really use.
Still learning though.Being left handed my brain sometimes works sdrawkcab
All the best

Re: Nik Collection now free
Unfortunately I never got it to work for me. It would let me get as far as doing the adjustments then shut down the editor for me.
I found this frustrating so uninstalled it.My flickrComment

I must be missing something here as I'm running it on Windows 10. It may say up-to Windows 8, but most Windows 8 applications work on Windows 10.Originally posted by Garry View PostLooks very interesting. But no good for windows10
