Sure enough, at that price, it probably won't receive any new features any time soon but I don't really care. In fact, that's why I wrote that five year old Silver Efex Pro is hot again: while Silver Efex Pro 2 used to be a $199 purchase, it’s now only available as a bundle (the ' Nik Collection by Google') with the other 6 Nik plugins and… it has now become completely free! Yes that's free as in F.R.E.E.! That means that Silver Efex Pro is no longer only one of the best Black & White plug-ins out there, it's definitely the cheapest one! More about that in this blog post.

Please note that the info at the end of the video regarding discounts and pricing is no longer accurate. The video also shares some tips on file preparation before you enter the plugin. Done with my Black & White conversion plugin of choice: Silver Efex Pro.

It’s about converting a 'difficult' image with a very bright sky into a dramatic Black & White with lots of sky detail. Hi, it’s been a while since I did a video tutorial so here’s an old one about a plug-in that suddenly is 'hot' again.
