on1 Software Perfect Photo Suite 9.5 Released

April 26, 2015 By Eric Reagan

on1 Software Perfect Photo Suite

on1 Software has released its Perfect Photo Suite 9.5 with improvements to browsing photos, portrait retouching, processing speed and feature additions and enhancements.

A summary from on1 Software of each of the new elements in Perfect Photo Suite 9.5 is below.

Browse

Browsing photos is one of the key improvements and one of the most important tasks for photographers. Today, photographers use Perfect Browse as a front end to their workflow with other programs like Adobe® Lightroom® and Photoshop®.

Speed

The biggest reason to adopt this workflow is speed. Browsing photos must be fast, period. Improved speed in viewing photos assists in organizing photo libraries and helps determine what photos you want to work on. Specifically, the ability to view large Raw files in detail can take forever with some apps. Not with Perfect Browse. Users will see up to a 50% increase in speed with the latest version. Quickly seeing all the detail in photos without pixilation allows for faster culling, sorting, and rating. Then send your photos with the ratings intact to Lightroom or other applications, faster than ever before.

Organize

We’ve also added new features to Perfect Browse, which makes it a great standalone option for getting organized. on1 Albums allow you to create a collection of your favorite photos and provide a fast way to view them without searching. Want to drag and drop photos into an album? It’s simple to do right in Perfect Browse. Select the photos you want to add to the album and drag them to the Album Hot Spot. Photos in an on1 album can live anywhere, whether in the cloud or on your computer.

Faster Retouching and Effects

Another area we’ve focused on is improved speed and performance for portrait retouching and filters in Perfect Effects. Perfect Portrait is now faster than ever for auto face detection, and finding the details of the face, eyes, lips, and mouth. With easier to adjust control points and smoother sliders it makes for much quicker portrait edits. Many of the filters in Perfect Effects have been updated to use the computer GPU to make them much faster.

New Features

In addition to all the performance enhancements, Perfect Photo Suite 9.5 also has some great new features. The Line Mask tool allows you to create a straight path for masking sharp edges where brushing is difficult. Luminosity Masks have also been added for users to work on the luminance values or lighter and darker parts of a photo based on a specific selection.

    I shoot my photos raw. I normally use Lightroom for post processing. Perfect Photo integrates well with Lightroom. However, if you use Perfect Photo stand alone, when you publish or save a photo in jpeg format, the camera creation date (metadata) is omitted. I reported this issue on the previous version of Perfect Photo and was told that the issue would be corrected with version 9.5. Not so.

    I really like Perfect Photo, but it seems like they focus on being an add-on to Lightroom.
