This is brilliant news! I was searching the exact thing, so I’ll definately buy when possible. Also Ui looks way more pleasing than LR.
I second this! I would love to get started with whatever you have already. I have been demoing a few other standalone options recently, and while I have faith that the new NLP will beat them all, I’m itching to make a change.
I too would be very interested in a standalone version, but preferably wihtout any subscription based pricing model. I’d rather pay for a full version and decide (when major updates are due) whether I want to upgrade

I would also love to beta test. as a user of your software professionally since the early days. i’m ecstatic to test it out. also there is really no good rgb conversion at the moment so id be very curious to try out your system. I have jack’s light but have had very little success with it to the point that I just prefer to use nlp like i’ve always used it with a white light. thanks for all your hard work nate. I am so excited.
@nate Thanks for the great updates and options.
1- So excited for Flat Field Correction / Lens Cast Correction to help overcome a lot of the lighting & lens challenges. At best its a fiddly feature in Lightroom for single images and batching is… challenging and often doesn’t work. In CaptureOne it is possible to batch and is easier but lacks a lot of the NLP features. It is the number one feature I am most excited for!
Dream feature?:
2- Is the ability to utilize Digital ICE (IR layer) images possible? Now or in the future? I am considering a setup with an IR light along with the proper camera and lens that takes 2 images, a color and an IR image.
EDIT: or R+G+B+IR… thats possible in the future, too, i guess.
Most people don’t need this on fresh film, but those of us working with big, old archives it could be a huge time saver on necessary images. I did find a tangential Digital ICE discussion also in the Feature Request section from 2021-2024, but it wasn’t via separate raw/dng files made during camera scanning but from dedicated film scanners.
I am eagerly awaiting a standalone, I would love to ditch lightroom entirely. Thanks as always. Cheers!
Add me to the list of folks who would love perpetual license. Thanks Nate!
