Press Release Summary = AKVIS LLC announces the release of AKVIS Enhancer plug-in v.4.1 for Windows and Macintosh. The new algorithm introduced in v. 4.1 of this detail-revealing plugin allows for processing of large photos and fixes compatibility bug with Mac OS X 10.3.9.
Press Release Body = It may happen that a photographer will take a great photo but some details within it will be lost due to unevenness of exposure. For instance, when shooting against the bright sky you can find out that other objects on the photo came out dark. Merely manipulating the brightness and contrast of the whole frame can improve some portions of a photo, but might then spoil other areas that need different treatment. Here lies the strength of AKVIS Enhancer.
AKVIS Enhancer intensifies the difference between adjacent pixels having different color gradations and reveals details within shadowed, overexposed or mid-tone areas. Where other similar programs may achieve acceptable results by manipulating two to four shots of the same scene, AKVIS Enhancer applies advanced algorithms to a single shot for spectacular outcome.
Most images can be improved at default settings. For further adjustment you have four parameters at your disposal: Details in Shadows, Details in Highlights, Level of Detail and Lightness.
The new improved algorithm allows processing large photos and fixes the compatibility bug with Mac OS X 10.3.9. Note, the users who have other AKVIS plug-ins installed should update them too. The update for registered users is free.
In addition to its appeal to the amateur photographer and home user, AKVIS Enhancer is a highly useful tool in the production of technical and industrial photographs, or for revealing subtle details within medical imaging and forensic photos. Demonstrations of AKVIS Enhancer\'s features are available at http://akvis.com/en/enhancer-tutorial/index.php . For a free trial, AKVIS offers 10 days of fully functional use.
