Macphun has released Focus 2, which is touted as an easy-to-use software application to enable photographers of all skill levels add selective focus to their images.
Focus 2 contains five aperture settings fine-tuned for specific types of photography such as Portrait, Landscape, Macro and Tilt-Shift. The latter helps create the popular “miniature” look in photos. A Custom Focus setting provides even greater control when applying focus and blur to images. Users can set the center focal point and amount of blur, while Vividness and Vignette features provide a professional finishing touch to images.
