HDR Bundle! - Photomatix Pro 3 + LucisArt 3 + Noiseware

Photomatix Product Overview:

If you have ever photographed a high contrast scene, you know that even the best exposure will typically have blown out highlights and flat shadows. Photomatix offers two ways to solve this problem:
› Exposure Blending: Merge differently exposed photographs into one image with increased dynamic range.
› Tone Mapping: Reveal highlight and shadow details in an HDR image created from multiple exposures. The tone mapped image is ready for printing while showing the


LucisArt 3 Product Improvements Overview:

1) Greatly increased ability to fine-tune how you enhance detail. Instead of 7 settings to enhance detail (7 settings for the LucisArt 2 effect Exposure and 5 settings for the LucisArt 2 effect Whyeth) you have a slider that you can later in increments of 2 intensity levels. That is 125 settings for an 8-bit image.

2) User-defined presets. Easily save, name, rename and organize your favorite LucisArt 3 settings.

3) Greatly improved output image quality. LucisArt processing is very computationally intensive. Each pixel is compared to every other pixel along hundreds of radial lines called scan lines. The number of scan lines has been doubled for LucisArt 3. So you will see fewer or no radial artifacts for most LucisArt 3 settings. This is particularly important for the LucisArt 3 SE special effects.

4) An improved, scalable user interface. The User Interface opens to the same size it was when you used it last. It also has improved zoom controls.

5) Process huge images. LucisArt processing is very computationally intensive.The current maximum image size that can be processed is about 250 MB. A free upgrade is under development that would allow you to process huge images.

6) Expanded operating system compatibility. Intel Macintosh compatible. Photoshop CS4 and Photoshop Elements 7 compatible. Free upgrade for Photoshop CS4x64 and Windows XP and Vista 64-bit operating systems is under development.





NoiseWare Product Overview:

Inimitable Performance: Continuing its ever-increasing performance tradition, the new NoisewareTM 4 boasts an additional 25% speed increase, plus dual-processor support enabling a further 2X performance improvement over its predecessor. Now you can process 8 MPixel files in under 4 seconds in 16-bit mode.

CLICK-LESS WORKFLOW

Intuitive and Intelligent: True to its Easy-to-Use principle, NoisewareTM 4.0 further streamlines sophisticated workflow into an intuitive experience. No camera profiles needed - just click once. Noiseware’s IntelliProfileTM algorithm, with its Self-Learning mechanism, will automatically calibrate a precision noise profile and choose the optimal settings for each individual image. The manual region sampling method is also available, if preferred.

COLOR AND TONAL RANGE | FREQUENCY | DETAILGUARD

New Unique Features: NoisewareTM includes three new control sets to enable a wide range of fine-tuning and superior output quality. Now you can adjust detected noise levels as well as noise suppression levels by tonal and color ranges. Noiseware's new DetailGuardTM preserves image details based on tonality range and processing degree, safeguarding picture details from excessive alteration.
