Plug-in Suite 5 includes full versions of the following onOne Software products:
FocalPoint 2 - Like bringing the camera lens inside Photoshop, this new version
of FocalPoint 2 gives photographers the best way to add the most realistic depth
of field and selective focus control to any image after it is photographed.
Photographers now have an incredible amount of flexibility and control over the
look of the blur with FocalPoint 2's new blur algorithm, FocusBrush, Lens
Presets, featuring 18 from Rafael Concepcion from NAPP, and multiple FocusBug
features.
PhotoTune 3 - Getting great color doesn`t have to be so hard. This new version
of PhotoTune 3 uses patented eye-fidelityTM technology, originally developed by
and licensed from imsense to optimize the dynamic range, color and sharpness of
images so that they look more true-to-life. The improved Wizard offers fast
color and tone correction in as little as two steps while giving pro users
direct access to advanced and innovative controls. SkinTune, which represents
two years of research and analysis of thousands of skin tones, now offers
one-click color correction of portraits and the option to correct just the skin
in an image.
PhotoFrame 4.5 Professional Edition - With PhotoFrame 4.5, you can add the
perfect finishing touch to your images with over 100 exciting new professionally
designed frames, backgrounds, textures and layouts, featuring content from
NAPP`s Cory Barker and professional photographer Kersti Malvre. With one
thousand design elements like film edges, borders, textures, backgrounds and
adornments, PhotoFrame 4.5 Professional Edition even has complete layouts where
users can simply drop an image in and they are done. It is the easiest and
fastest way to add an authentic darkroom touch with a film edge or to create
beautiful albums or scrapbook pages.
PhotoTools 2.5 Professional Edition - PhotoTools 2.5 is the highly acclaimed
Photoshop plug-in that allows photographers of all skill levels to maximize the
full power of Photoshop with its ability to preview and combine Photoshop
Actions in a single, intuitive interface. Designed by photographers for
photographers, PhotoTools 2.5 Professional now includes a new MaskingBug control
based on the FocusBug control from the award-winning FocalPoint plug-in. The new
MaskingBug allows photographers to create high-quality masks to selectively
apply effects to images. With over 30 new creative effects, including presets
from NAPP`s Rafael Concepcion, for a total effect library of 280, photographers
can easily find, combine and save the results to create images that truly stand
out.
Genuine Fractals 6 Professional Edition - The industry standard for enlarging
photos, Genuine Fractals 6 enlarges images up to 1,000% while maintaining sharp
edges and important image details. Genuine Fractals 6 now includes an automated
gallery wrap feature and output options for tiling an enlarged photo. No other
resizing plug-in is as widely used by more professionals than Genuine Fractals.
MaskPro 4 - For those times when you need to extract a subject from a photo,
Mask Pro 4 uses a color-based method that allows users to easily remove unwanted
backgrounds from your photos. Mask Pro's unique Color Decontamination technology
allows users to get realistic results by maintaining transparency in hard to
mask objects like hair, smoke and glass in a fraction of the time using
traditional tools.
