Free software with the latest issue of Digital Photographer

Hi Photo,
We have a real treat for you in the latest issue of Digital Photographer - a free copy of DxO Optics Pro 6 worth £239! You'll find it on the disc that accompanies the magazine and it's for both Mac and PC users. Grab a copy of issue 140 of Digital Photographer and join the party!
Lately we've been getting to look at the new cameras hitting the market soon and it's making me wonder: just where is the line between CSC and DSLR these days? Feature-packed new compacts like the new OM-D E-M1 from Olympus can give entry-level DSLRs a run for their money, while tough cookies like the new Nikon 1 AW can take on the kind of extreme temperatures, water and even hard knocks that would send a traditional high-end shooter scurrying back to the well-padded safety of its camera bag. Then there are phones - phones! - so good at imaging that they're being used by the likes of David Bailey, Bruce Weber and Stephen Alvarez (who has shared his top tips for travel photography with us to help you succeed at the Nokia Lumia 1020 challenge or Travel Photographer of the Year competitions).
Where do you stand on the rise of the compacts? Are the new breed tempting you to downsize, or is there no replacement for a full DSLR or top-of-the-range digital back like the one reviewed in the latest issue of Digital Photographer? Head over to Facebook or Twitter to tell us what you think! And don't forget to show off your shots on our Gallery - especially now that you have a shiny new copy of DxO Optics Pro 6 to help you improve and enhance them.
