onOne Software's Perfect Photo Suite 9 Is Available(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) PORTLAND, OR -- (Marketwired) -- 10/29/14 -- Today, onOne Software released Perfect Photo Suite 9, an updated version of its photo editing and effects app for Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows. Included in the new release are many significant performance and feature improvements, all designed to help you streamline your photo-editing tasks, so you can spend more time shooting and less time processing your photos. Among the key enhancements in Perfect Photo Suite 9 are: An overhauled Browse module, which adds lightning-fast previews of RAW files; new rating, ranking and keyword tools; and sophisticated filtering capabilities. These features are designed to help you cull and sort through photos quickly after a shoot, without having to wait for previews to be generated. You can then edit your photos using the Suite, or can easily send them to a secondary photo tool like Adobe Photoshop Lightroom or Apple Aperture -- with metadata and keywords intact.A new Smart Photo feature, which lets you re-edit your photos -- with previous settings intact -- after saving and closing them. All of your editing steps are saved with a Smart Photo, so you can make subtle (or major) changes to a photo at a later date. And Smart Photos use the standard Photoshop file format, so you are assured of maximum compatibility.To help you create better selections, all the masking and selection tools have been improved and integrated throughout the Suite's modules. And, Perfect Layers and Perfect Mask have been combined into a single module, streamlining the process of compositing photos.We've also added a new Quick Mask brush: run it over an area that you want to select (or remove), and a detailed mask is automatically created. This is perfect for replacing backgrounds or adding a custom look to part of your photo.You asked for it, we added it: noise reduction is now part of the Suite. Reduce noise in your photos while maintaining important details. You can even selectively apply noise reduction to different parts of a photo, such as the shadows or highlights.A new Lens Flare filter in Perfect Effects lets you get that popular "shot into the sun" look and add flares ranging from subtle to bold.Faster processing; the Suite is now up to 2x faster than Suite 8 in many instances.There are many more new features and enhancements found in Perfect Photo Suite 9, including Retina display support; an improved automatic tone algorithm, for quickly making your photos bright and clear; better crop and level tools; an enhanced Perfect Brush, updated to work on soft edges and semi-transparent objects; printing capabilities; better batch rename options; and much more.
