If you have ever photographed a high contrast scene, you know that selecting the correct exposure will not avoid blown out highlights and flat shadows. Photomatix Pro offers two ways to solve this problem:
› Exposure Blending: Merge differently exposed photographs into one image with increased dynamic range.
› Tone Mapping: Create a High Dynamic Range Image from multiple exposures, then tone map it to compress its tonal range while preserving local contrast.
The result is an image that shows local details in both highlights and shadows.

This tool utilizes a complex multi-stage processing technology to accurately remove digital noise and JPEG artifacts from images. Another modification of that technology, called 'Nova Sharpen', allows sharpening of blurry images producing an amazing crispness never possible to achieve using standard techniques. Cleanerzoomer uses Nova Sharpen after an image has been enlarged to achieve an absolutely crisp and naturally-looking zoomed picture. The additional Auto-balance instrument of Cleanerzoomer is able to balance colour, levels and gamma of the image greatly increasing its realism.
