“Features in Dfx add brilliant options to my workflow, and one of the most important features to me is the fact that all of the Dfx filters are available in 16-bit with my Smart Object workflow,”says Eddie Tapp, M.Photog., MEI, Cr., API, Photoshop Hall of Fame Inductee, Canon Explorer of Light and Tiffen DfxPERT. “This allows me to refine any Dfx creative enhancement at any time.

I also enjoy the great control over tone and color throughout the Dfx suite, particularly its easy-to-use selection tools for generating masks.
