Only by Viveza Viveza 2 now and everything changed enormously: I have put only one control point, determine the effect on the control of the radius correction, heat, white balance, RGB, contrast, etc. can check immediately and controls limited to only one color. Perfect.
With Viveza 2, the picture controls can now also carry out global order then to proceed with the now groupable selective corrections on. So the overall effect is accentuated in individual image regions or weakens.
Similar to PS the Shadow / Highlight function can Viveza 2 now also brighten the shadow area, and there is the "photo filter" control, the Nik Software has christened "heat" in the image control; This can be impressively the mood in the image change in a natural way.
As an alternative to the Viveza 2 full immersion there is still the one that is Lightroom Edition indeed cheaper, but also much less practical. It is therefore no longer possible to work non-destructively through the Smart Filter, it can be edited only on export base and the Zeitvoteil is also lost, because a lot more clicks are necessary, and should be regulated as before retouching in PS yes.
Conclusion: If you have to edit a lot of photos, would like to do it quickly, so that will fit the bill.
