This boxed CD-ROM version of FilmPack 4 Essential Edition Image Processing Software from DxO allows you to apply analog film effects to your digital photos. In this edition of FilmPack 4, you have a number of different effects: thirteen different black and white film types, twenty-two color film types, eight filters, six different tones, and thirty-three different film grain settings. Additionally, benefit from ten designer color and black and white presets offering vintage effects, aged looks and improbable tints.
You can create and save your own parameters for intensity, grain, and contrast so that you can apply them to other images. Plus, create vignettes around images. DxO FilmPack 4's intuitive controls let you precisely control the intensity and even the orientation of your effects.
New to version 4: Store the presets you most frequently use in the Favorites tab, and reproduce the processing settings you've applied to your images by printing them directly from DxO FilmPack. You can also take advantage of the cropping tool.
FilmPack 4 features a simple, quick interface that lets you easily process all of your images and allows you to categorize presets for your photos. While FilmPack 4 can work as a standalone program, it also can work as a plug-in for the following programs: DxO Optics Pro 8.2 and higher; Adobe Photoshop CS3, CS4 (32 & 64 bit), CS5 (32 & 64 bit) and CS6 (32 & 64 bit); Adobe Photoshop Elements 9, 10 and 11; Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3, 4 and 5; and Apple Aperture 3.
