Powerful raw image editing utility that converts, tunes and edits raw images from your camera and can export them as beautiful JPG files.
Photivo is a powerful photo development tool that not only whips up JPG shots, but primarily takes care of your RAW images. Standard processes such as black and white transformation, retro film grain or dynamic correction are of course just as available as the more complex tools.
Where photographers used to try using countless tools in the laboratory to adapt the photos to their own wishes, today digital artists turn various knobs and sliders on the computer to change contrasts, colors or sharpness.
For example, you have various options with which you can achieve HDR toning, correct lens distortions or add them on purpose. For example, you can give a normal photo a fisheye look. In the "EyeCandy" tab you will find tools to give already corrected shots a unique look.
