German Photographer Sascha Rheker started an online petition on. And I hate to see that alternative go to waste. For my Black & White work, for example, I have created a set of Black & White Lightroom presets that I do 95 percent of my B&W work with, but for those cases where these presets fall short, I know that generally Silver Efex would have my back. In fact, over the past years I noticed I have started using the Nik Collection (or any other plug-in for that matter) less and less, and try to do as much as possible in Lightroom.

Right now, there's little motivation to start or continue to use a piece of software if you know that any day you're using it might be the last. Personally, I don't need any new features - in fact I think that 8 year old Silver Efex Pro 2 is still miles ahead of any of the competing plug-ins - but I wouldn't mind paying for the software if at least compatibility updates would be guaranteed. The chances of them selling the patented tech to say Adobe, are slim, too. The chances of Google turning this Open Source are very slim, because they still use an important part of the technology in Snapseed. I'm very much afraid that there is little we can do about this. On both my systems, the Collection is still working (I did have to manually copy over the Nik Collection folder from my Photoshop CC2015 Plugins folder to my CC2017 Plugins folder) but there are already reports of people where the Collection has stopped working.

You can still download it for free, and use it for as long as your particular OS and hardware will support it, but basically Google is saying not to bother them nor to expect solutions if problems arise. Now, we kind of had come to expect that there wouldn't be any new features, but now, the message clearly states that there won't be any OS compatibility updates either.

They must have sold a virtual truckload. But if you buy software, even if it's discounted, and if you start to build your workflow around it, it's only fair to expect the company you buy the software from to keep updating it.Īnd this is where things started to go progressively bad: when Google made the software totally free last year, this move was also interpreted by some as the beginning of the end.Īnd indeed, one year later, Google have discreetly put up a banner on their website saying the Nik Collection will no longer be supported. So one of the first things Google did was limit the number of versions to only one: the Lightroom and Photoshop bundle and drop its price to $149.

One of the few, if not the only problem with the Nik Collection when it was still owned, developed and maintained by Nik Software GmbH was that it was pricey: around $200 for a single plugin, $300 for the Lightroom-only bundle and a whopping $500 for the Lightroom and Photoshop enabled version of the bundle. It's basically the mobile version of the Nik Collection and it's entirely free.

By the way, if you're looking for an excellent mobile editor on your phone or tablet (iOS and Android), Snapseed is a killer app (iOS link here, Android link here).


Not so much for the Nik Collection, but rather because Google had set their eyes on Snapseed, Nik's mobile app. In September 2012 - I cannot believe that's almost five years ago - Google acquired Nik. In fact, a few of you reading this might use the Nik Collection because I recommended it to you. The long storyĮven if you're only a halfway regular reader of this blog, you know I was and still am a big fan of the Nik Collection. If you're a Nik Collection user, it's well worth one minute of your time to vote. In true David versus Goliath style, German photographer Sascha Rheker started an online petition on. Google have announced that it will no longer support the Nik Collection.
