                 The variation browser allows you to choose from different versions of a function and is primarily operated using the mouse: 
 
 Shifting the segment: hold down the left mouse button before moving the mouse 
 Zooming in: Scroll up 
 Zooming out: Scroll down 
 Choosing a variant: double left-click on the image 
 Setting a referent: left-click on the image 
 Comparison with referent: hold down the right mouse button over the image You can find the corresponding short cuts under “menu” – information – Short-cuts. 
 
 Click on the symbol and NEAT projects 2 professional will show you the entire preview gallery of that chosen category. Zoom in on the variant that you want to compare and set a reference image. 
 You will be able to put this reference image on any image with a left-click of the mouse. You can fade in this reference image into the other image by holding down the right mouse button. The border surrounding the image in a green dashed line shows you the reference image so that you can make the comparison. In this way, you can compare any two variants in the browser directly and visually. 
   Example: &amp;nbsp;As a reference image you choose the variant “Natural Original” and mark the image with a left mouse-click. The green dashed line shows that you have chosen this image. 
 Now, you look for a different preview image. In this case, preset „Natural Shadow“ has been chosen. 
 Right-click on the preset „Colours Intense” and the reference preset will fade in. As soon as you let go of the mouse button, you will see the „Colors Intense” again. This is how you simply and purposefully compare looks with one another before choosing the ones you like best. 
  Selection of your desired variation: &amp;nbsp;With a double-click you chose the variant. The adjustment of the relevant program settings will be carried out automatically. 
  Tip:  Your current choice will be set automatically as your reference image when you open the window. 
  Deleting a variation: &amp;nbsp;If you want to delete a variation move the cursor over it and click the [Del]-button. After that, click on the “compress”-button. If you want to display the deleted variations again click on “reset”.

                 Directly after uploading your images, you will find yourself in post-processing. Here, you can start editing the results with filters and effects. The Neat projects 2 professional presets can be found on the left side of the post-processing-screen: The presets show the breakdown of the live preview in categories - &quot;Natural“, &quot;Colors“, &quot;Details“ und &quot;Soft&quot; - with the quantity of presets in the appropriate category. 
 As a start, we’ve chosen the “Natural Original”-preset. Clicking on the preview-image applies the effect to the image in real time, and the result will then be displayed in the middle of the screen. 
 NEAT projects 2 professional isn’t about image looks, but preliminary presets. 43 different effects make your image lighter, darker, more vivid in colour, and so on. 
 All 43 NEAT projects 2 professional presets at a single glance. The bar “presettings” can be easily detached and adjusted in size.

                                            Here, you can configure the program’s settings precisely. For the first steps, please use the standard settings. These default settings can be restored with the arrow at the bottom left, so they won&#039;t be irretrievably lost.

                 Here, you can configure the program’s settings precisely. For the first steps, please use the standard settings. These default settings can be restored with the arrow at the bottom left, so they won&#039;t be irretrievably lost. 
  a. Scaling:  Upon uploading a bracketed series, images can be scaled anywhere from 25% to 400% using any one of the 6 available scaling processes. Tip: The further towards the bottom the procedure is found within the list, the better the quality and the longer the computation time. 
  b. Colour space conversion: &amp;nbsp;Advanced users can choose a colour space here – for all other users, it is recommended not to make any adjustments to avoid incorrect colour rendering later. Neat projects 2 professional offers several new colour spaces (D65). The standard illuminant D65 is equivalent to a phase of natural daylight with a colour temperature of 6500° Kelvin. 
  c. White balance:  Corrects colour casts that occur with photos taken, for instance, in a warmly lit room. To start, leave this setting unchanged. 
  d . With this regulator, it is possible to adjust the colour temperature when you’re already uploading. It is advised that you leave the setting on “default” and that you regulate the colour temperature later in post-processing. 
  &amp;nbsp;e. Optimisations:  The &quot;Colour Normalisation&quot;-option automatically removes colour spots present in RAW-image-files. This ensures that shadows within your image remain dark and lights stay bright. &quot;Automatic Brilliance Optimisation&quot;-function can be activated for RAW-file uploads in the RAW options section. Camera RAW formats often do not make use of all potential tone values. &quot;Automatic RAW Luminosity Optimization&quot; compensates for this by enhancing tonal values, resulting in the creation of a more comprehensive histogram for each RAW-image. If the checkbox next to &quot;Automatic Rotation of Images&quot; is filled, images are corrected according to the orientation present in their Exit data. 
  f. Noise suppression : These buttons allow you to select the precision of the noise removal, whereas the slider regulates the degree of sharpness for the edges. Here, dark images can undergo significant noise removal and have hot pixels (light spots caused by the camera’s sensor in dark situations) eliminated. 
  g. Exposure: &amp;nbsp;Can be used to edit images within an exposure bracket which have been exposed incorrectly and/or appear out of focus. Recommended for use when working with darker exposure brackets is the &quot;Shadow Optimisation&quot;-function. This function can be applied to easily eliminate colour casts and to enhance lighter areas and details in bright exposure brackets further. 
  h. Alignment: &amp;nbsp;Here, you can influence how the individual images of the series are congruently positioned on top of one another. The subtlest movement of an object, unintentional zooming, or rotating of the camera can be considered. In the majority of cases, the default settings lead to the preferred result. The automatic cropping function corrects empty areas at the edges of your images. 
 Check the option „Always Display this Window“ and the &quot;Image Preparation&quot;-window will automatically open upon starting the program.

                 Here, you can determine in which folder projects, exposure bracketing/photo series, final images and default settings will be saved. 
  Program:  Language Here you can change the program-language to either German, English or French. 
  Program : Accelerate GPU Here, you can choose to either activate or deactivate graphic-card-computing-speed-acceleration. 
  Program:  Tooltips Hovering your cursor over specific tools or menu options long enough will prompt the display of a short text, offering an explanation of the function or tool, to appear. This is called Tooltip. Tooltips can also be deactivated here, if preferred. 
  Program : Progress Bar While processing effects in NEAT projects 2 professional, progress will be displayed with the help of a progress bar. Here, you can decide when and whether to display the progress bar. 
  Program:  Projects When selecting the compression level, you are deciding how much storage space will be allocated to each of your projects. In other words, you are deciding on how quickly the storage is performed. A lower level saves the projects faster, a higher level reduces the amount of storage space available on your hard disc. 
  Program:  Undo With the option “save undo-steps in projects”, you can save all undo-steps within the project file. The undo-steps will be fully reproduced when the file is opened. This creates a significantly larger project file. Set the maximum number of undo-steps (1, 5, 10, 20 or 50). If you do not wish to set a maximum, select “unlimited”. 
 The minimum free-disk-space specifies the amount of free space on your hard drive that will not be taken up by saving undo-steps. This ensures the proper functioning of your operating software. By default, this is set to 10% of your hard disk capacity but can be increased or decreased accordingly. 
  Program:  Preview Mode In preview mode you can choose between the modes “optimal” and “quick”. With the “optimal”-mode activated, the preview size is adapted to the size of the original image. It guarantees maximum preview quality. If the “quick” mode is activated, the preview size is reduced to half of that of the original image. This guarantees the highest possible speed in preview-mode. Moreover, you can set the size of your preview area in megapixels if you have not selected optimal or quick mode. Select a high value if you have a very fast computer. 
  External Programs  Here, you can choose in which format NEAT projects 2 professional will export images to external programs. You can specify as well which programs should be used for external image editing. Navigate to the file in which the function is installed and select it. 
  Jpg  Jpg or Jpeg is the most common and popular format for most cameras and image editing programs. Here, you can control the quality as well as compress the image. Compressed images with high quality look better but do require more storage space. 
  Tif  Here, you can choose between different compression-methods for your Tif files. 
  Png  Png is popular due to its graphics and digital visualisation. Here, you can choose between a number of compression-methods. 
  Automatic : Primary View Select whether the software should start in post-processing or directly in motion-analysis after uploading image files. 
  Automatic:  Motion Algorithms Here, you can activate the resetting of the motion-algorithms when opening a new sequence. 
  Automatic:  Post Processing Post-processing automatically sets the corn-engine back to its original settings with every newly started project. To use a fixed corn value in batch-processing, set it in the program and then deactivate this option. 
  Automatic:  Security Questions and Additional Information Here, you can choose whether or not to display security questions or additional information. 
  Automatic:  Automatic Undo Points Creates an automatic Undo-Point before RAW-development, sensor-correction or selective drawing. This creates a definitive starting point after uploading the image. 
  Automatic:  Image Preparation Displays the image-preparation-window when images are exported via a Plug-in. 
 Save formats with NEAT projects. 
  Automatic : Image Saving Activate the option “always save in highest resolution” and the processed image will automatically be saved in full resolution, even if the preview mode is active. Activate the option “show crop window when saving” and the crop window will automatically be displayed before saving the image.&amp;nbsp; 
  Automatic:  Batch Processing/ Image Data Browser Here, you can activate automatic loading with the last-used directory when opening the image data browser. You can also activate the automatic inclusion of subdirectories in the image-data-browser and in batch-processing. Additionally, you can prevent files from being overwritten by automatically adding the original file extension (e.g. jpg, tif,…) for the file-name created in batch-processing.

  Image Sequence Browser  For a better overview over your image-sequences, you can use the image-sequence-browser before uploading your image-sequences. Click on the corresponding symbol in the task bar. A preview-window will open. Select your image-folder as the „Source Folder”. 
 NEAT projects 2 professional will now display a preview image. Hover you cursor over the preview-image to enlarge it. The file-type-filter is quite useful here. JPG-series are often stored together in the same folder, alongside RAW-images. Enter RAW in the file-type-field and only RAW-images will be displayed, without duplicates. The image-search is complete once the progress bar has reached 100%. 
 From this point onwards, you will be able to upload the image-sequence. Select the desired series with a right mouse-click and choose the “Open as Project”-option from the context menu. Alternatively, double-clicking the image in Preview will also open the image. 
 NEAT projects 2 professional uploads the images from your chosen sequence in the same way as the simple Drag &amp;amp; Drop method does. Now, we can begin with post-processing

                 In order to crop objects with a monochrome green or blue background in CutOut 9 professional using chromakey-matting, select the desired image in album-mode and click on chromakey in the menu bar. The selected image should now be opened in the chromakey-matting menu as follows: 
 Now, you have various matting setting-options at your disposal on the right side of the screen, and you can use them to optimize the result. 
 In order to crop the people in the picture, i.e. to extract the green background, first click on the pipette-symbol: Then click on a spot in the image that corresponds to the background color, in this case a green area. 
 Using the pipette-tool gives CutOut 9 professional information about which color corresponds to the background. 
 CutOut 9 professional automatically detects which areas need to be extracted from the image and which need to be retained. 
 The result is displayed directly, whereby the distant background is displayed transparently (gray-white grid-pattern): 
 Since the green background in this picture stands out very clearly from the object (the people), the matting result is already pretty ideal and hardly needs any further improvement. 
 However, one is not always lucky enough to deal with such clearly distinguishable background colors, so that the matting result can often be improved further. In this case, please turn to the chapter chromakey-matting-optimization, which explains the other tools of the chromakey-matting menu 
 To create the displayed matting result as a separate layer in CutOut 9 professional and then edit or save it, click &quot;Apply&quot; in the chromakey-matting menu. 
 As a result, the post-matting menu will appear, presenting an array of options on how you can proceed with the cropped object. 
 To have your cropped object remain as its own layer, please select the option &quot;Duplicate Layer&quot;. 
 Further explanations regarding the remaining menu options can be found in the chapter titled &quot;The Post-matting Menu&quot;. 
 The matting result is now available in the menu bar on the right in the layers-area. 
 In order to recognize the matting result, however, you must hide the layer of the original image that still contains the background. 
 You can do this by clicking on the “eye symbol” next to the layer:

                 Inside/Outside Edge Matting is the right choice when it comes to cropping objects from images which do not possess a strictly monotone background or are similar in color to the background itself. Select the image you wish to crop from album-mode and choose the middle option from the following window. Now, the selected image should be opened in the Inside/Outside Edge Matting Menu as follows: 
 Since the background coloration is, in this case, not only varied but also quite similar to that of the lion’s fur, chromakey-matting would most likely not deliver the best possible result. 
 For this reason, it makes the most sense to separate the object in the foreground from the background manually. 
 To get started, locate the menu-bar on the right side and select the polygon-tool for the outside selection from the upper left-hand corner. Now, draw an outer-edge outline around the lion’s entire head. 
 This does not need to be done with pinpoint precision. 
 Most important when drawing the outline is making sure no point falls inside the object itself. 
 Now, choose the polygon-tool for the inside selection: 
 Step-by-Step, click and drag the outline along the inside border of the lion—that is, where the edge meets the background. 
 Once again, this process does not need to be carried out 100% accurately. In order to be able to work more precisely, however, you can use the zoom function located on the left side of the menu-bar: 
 An alternative option is simply scrolling with your mouse-wheel to adjust the zoom settings.

                 DENOISE projects 2 professional offers a wealth of different filters, so that the best result can be achieved for every image with the least amount of effort. Here, you can choose between a total of 69 post-processing effects which you can combine with each other as well as change individually. 
 If you want to have a good grasp of how these different filters work, then it is best to experiment on different images until you know what kind of effect each filter has on the image. To ease you into working with DENOISE projects 2 professional, you will find a list of every filter and effect in chronological order below. Please be aware that different filters can have totally different results when used on different images. 
  Reducing chromatic aberrations:  
 &quot;Reducing chromatic aberrations&quot; (errors caused by optical lenses) removes the colour seams between bright and dark areas occurring due to light shining towards the lens (colour source errors). 
  Chromatic correction (CA):  &quot;Chromatic correction&quot; enables the correction of diffraction, separately for each other channel. 
  Balance chrominance:  &quot;Balancing the chrominance&quot; reduces the colour spots that might be created by colour noise. The colours will be changed in such a way as to generate a neutral image effect. 
  Colour balance:  Use the &quot;colour balance&quot; to produce a targeted colour tone correction in your image by selecting red, green or blue and weighing it against its counterpart. 
  Colour dynamics:  &quot;Colour dynamics&quot; intensifies the colours in the picture. Strongly saturated colours will be reduced and blue shades will be strongly modified. 
  Colour channel gradation:  Set up separate gradation-curves for the colour-channels red, green and blue. 
  Colour channel gradation (Log):  Determine the exposure-curve of the RGB colour-channels for the picture with the logarithmic gradation-curve for colour-channels, especially so that the darker areas of the picture can be identified. 
  Adjust colour-channels:  Adjusting the colour-channels lets you determine the intensity of red, green and blue, and lets you spread the tonal values of the colour-channels with a Sigmoid-function. 
  Mix colour-channels:  This effect mixes the RGB channels depending on your settings. You can, for instance, exchange the red for the blue channel. 
  Colour intensity:  Colour intensity is a filter which mixes colour temperature and saturation. The intensity of the pixel colour is enhanced to match the nearest pure colour or reduced to differ from it. 
  Colour palette:  The colour palette allows you to make targeted adjustments to individual colour-areas of the image. 
  Correct colour tone:  The tone-correction enables you to select a single hue in the image and correct it selectively 
  Colours – Saturation – Exposure:  These filters allow you to modify colour-tones, saturation, and image-exposure. 
  Adjust colour:  The &quot;adjust colours&quot;-effect allows you to individually change the colour angle of the six basic colour tones: red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple. 
  Expose colours:&amp;nbsp; The &quot;expose colour&quot;-effect allows you to individually change the brightness of the six basic colour tones: red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple. 
  Calibrate colour value:  Calibrate a selectable colour value in your image. 
  Colour light/shadow:  Colour light and shadow allow you to target areas of light or shadow and to either enhance or reduce the intensity of the colours there. 
  Manual RGB points:  Use the manual RGB points to control the black and white levels for every colour component individually. 
  Manual white balance:  Manual white balance is used to calculate a white balance with a single colour. 
  RGB Transformation:  Individually transforms your image for each colour channel. 
  RGB transformation (automatical):  Transforms your picture automatically with an iterative process onto ideal basic settings for the black points, and for the Gamma values of the RGB channels. 
  Soft focus – keep detail:  &quot;Soft focus keeping details&quot; is a strong blurring filter which nevertheless retains existing detail in the image. 
  Smooth colour tone:  The colour tone-smoother allows you to put only one shade of colour in the image into softer focus, meaning that you can select the skin colour of a portrait, for example, and alter the focus in this area without affecting the rest of the picture.

  Balance local contrast:  The local contrast balance increases or reduces the local contrasts within the image. Increase local contrasts to increase depth in your image, for example. 
  Luminance contrast:  This effect sharpens contrasts within the picture by using a luminance mask. 
  Manual black/white point:  By manually defining black and white spots, you can manipulate the brightest and darkest spots of your picture in post-processing. 
  Restore highlights:  This effect brings out the details in the highlights. 
  Optimise structure:  Optimising the effect-structure intensifies the structure in the picture, without increasing potential existing image noise. If the structure is toned down, the picture details will be kept. 
  Adjust tonal value:  Adjust the tonal values in 8 different areas. 
  Vignetting:  Vignetting allows you to correct a reduction or to increase an image´s brightness at the periphery. You can also use this effect as an artistic medium to direct the eye towards a certain area in an image. 
  Soft details:  &quot;Soft details&quot; enhances or reduce the details in your image by using a brightness mask. Soft contrast: Soft contrast will adjust the contrast difference of individual parts of the image by using a blurring mask.

  Reducing haze &amp;amp; fog:  This effect reduces haze and fog in an image. 
  Film grain – analogue:  The analogue film grain simulates a photographic film-coating with different ISO numbers and grain sizes. This creates a realistic film grain. 
  Film grain – digital:  By adding film grain, you can give your image that well-known cinematic look. 
  Film grain – fractal:  The image will be covered with a fractal film grain.  Note : The higher you set the iteration, the more gradiently the effect will be calculated. 
  Gradation curve:  The gradation curve allows you to add exposure to single-brightness-regions of your image. 
  Tip:  Play around with the gradation curve until you feel that you can handle it well. 
  Gradation curve (Log):  Determine the exposure curve of the picture with the logarithmic gradation curve, so that especially the darker areas of the picture can be identified. 
  Level brightness:  This effect smoothens a complete picture-area with selectable brightness. 
  Brightness – Contrast – Gamma:  This filter offers you basic tools for post-processing, allowing you to regulate brightness, contrast, and gamma. 
  Adapting light/shadow:  Adjusting light and shadow is a powerful tool for all kinds of photos, allowing you to enhance colours in the sky on landscape photos separately, for example.

  Denoising – fill gaps:  This effect fills gaps in the image. The pixel-data for these gaps is created based on the areas surrounding the gaps. Please note: Do not use this effect if the gaps appeared after denoising an image. You should also always use the Denoising HD effect before trying to fill gaps with this effect. 
  Optimise denoising:  Optimise denoising with the help of a detail mask which is created right from the picture. 
  Erode:  The &quot;erode&quot;-effect enlarges the dark areas within the image. 
  Smooth sky:  The sky-smoothing-function allows you to reduce noise within a single shade of colour. 
  Optimising sharpness:  Optimise image sharpness with the help of a detail mask, which is created right from the picture. 
  Sharpen– HD:  Image sharpness (HD) is a precise but calculation-heavy effect that maximises the sharpness of an image. 
  Sharpen – HD contours:  This method puts an emphasis on the details (contours) within the image and sharpens them. 
  Sharpen – HD ultra:  Image sharpness (HD ultra) is a precise but calculation-heavy effect that maximises the sharpness of an image.

  Denoising – Banding:  Banding denoising deletes vertical and horizontal streaks that might be caused by the camera-sensor. Detail losses that might occur will be stronger the higher the intensity of this effect is. 
  Denoising – Colour:  Deletes colour noise within the image depending on the selected intensity level. 
  Denoising – colour clouds:  This effect deletes the colour clouds that come from colour noise. 
  Denoising – smooth surfaces:  Smooths surfaces in your image and creates a homogenous image effect. 
  Denoising– smoothing:  The Denoising – smoothing method is a special method of soft drawing used for smoothing certain areas of the image. This leads to a preservation of the contours and the details within the image. 
  Denoising – HD:  Luminance noise suppression (HD) is a precise but calculation-heavy effect that reduces luminance noise or eliminates it completely. 
  Denoising– HD iterative:  Brightness denoising (HD iterative) is a method used for image denoising. 
  Denoising – HD ultra:  Brightness denoising (HD ultra) is a very calculation-heavy but also very precise effect that lets you reduce, and sometimes delete any image noise completely, based on brightness. 
  Denoising – hotpixel:  Hotpixel noise suppression is suited to shots with a small number of strong pixels which are disturbing the overall photo; it denoises these pixels very heavily. 
   Tip:  Apply it several times to remove disturbances across multipixel areas.

  Masking – details:.  Creates a mask based on details in the image. This mask will be used for all subsequent effects until it is removed. 
  Masking – colour shades:  Creates a mask based on the selectable colour shades in the image. This mask will be used on all subsequent effects until it is removed. 
  Masking – gradation:  Creates a mask based on the adjustable gradation curve of the image-brightness. This mask will be used for all following effects unless it is removed. 
  Masking – lights:  Creates a mask based on the highlights in the image. This mask will be used for all subsequent effects until it is removed. 
  Masking – shadow:  Creates a mask based on the shadows in the image. This mask will be used for all following effects, unless it is removed. 
  Masking – black/white points:  Creates a mask based on adjustable black and white points. This mask will be used for all following effects, unless it is removed. 
  Removing masking:  Removes the current mask from the calculation for all subsequent effects until a new mask is added. 
  Restore details:  Recovers details from detail-edges in the image, based on the original image. 
  Dilate:  The &quot;dilatation&quot;-effect enlarges bright areas in the image. 
  Dithering – Floyd-Steinberg:  &quot;Dithering&quot; creates a diffusion of errors that creates the impression of a softer image. This technique is often used in professional printing.

                 The selective drawing tool of DENOISE projects 2 professional should be given special attention. With this tool, you can edit selected areas of an image without having to create complicated masks by hand in other image editing programs. 
 DENOISE projects 2 professional has a newly developed intelligent corner-detection-algorithm that can independently distinguish corners, lines, borders and light differences in drawing-mode. It also saves crossed borders - via the mouse - as a mask. 
 These masks, which are incredibly simple and precise, serve as the basis for 10 important image enhancements: &quot;Shade&quot;; &quot;Lighten&quot;; &quot;Intensify Color&quot;; &quot;Reduce Color&quot;; &quot;Enhance Detail&quot;; &quot;Increase Contrast&quot;, etc. 
 These masks can be saved in image filesand can also be used in other image editing programs. 
 How this all works is best explained with a simple example: We open the Selective Drawing window (Postprocessing/Finalization - bottom right). 
 A simple RAW-file is suitable as an image example, a typical image of the sea and a beach. 
 The color details of the image have already been processed and brought to the foreground, so now you just want to slightly lighten the rocks without taking away the evening atmosphere of the image by also lightening the sky, the water and the beach. 
 1. Select the editing target 
 In this case, select &quot;Illuminate&quot;. Make sure that the selected mask-function is activated via the green check mark. 
 2. Activate the drawing-mode 
 3. Activate the fill-mode for all brush-functions 
 4. Go over the contours without clicking on the mouse buttons. You will see the size of the brush and can correct it if necessary. 
 5. Keep an eye on the mask display. The object whose boundaries can be detected automatically is displayed in a whitish color. Now, while holding down the mouse button, drag along the edges of the selected object until it is fully selected. What is displayed at the moment is the effect and the mask above it. 
 6. When you have finished selecting the object, hide the mask by moving the mask display slider to the left. 
 7. Now you can see the effect, i.e. the brighter rock - because &quot;Illuminate&quot; had been selected in the editing target. The intensity of the effect can be adjusted. Move the slider in the + direction or in the - direction so that you have your ideal intensiry. Done: the rocks are brighter while the sky, beach and water remain unchanged. 
 8. Click &quot;Close&quot;. You will return to post-processing and the selected changes will be applied and displayed. 
 9. Use your quickly created mask for further effects: Return to the selective drawing mode. Our constructed mask is preserved. Click and copy the mask to the clipboard. Switch the mask to &quot;Sharpen&quot; and reintegrate the mask from the clipboard into selective drawing. Now you have the rocks in focus while the other areas of the image are left untouched. 
 10. Every effect you have constructed can be activated or deactivated with the green check mark. 
 11. In each image the intensity of the edges will be different. But with the default settings you can be relatively sure that in most cases no adjustments will have to be made. From time to time, however, it will be necessary to readjust the settings of the contours as well as the smoothing in order to achieve ideal results. 
 12. If you have gone over the edge despite all the edge detection available, you can simply use the eraser to erase it. If you only want to erase a little, you can use the eraser with restrictions. If the opacity is set to 50%, you can only erase 50% of the mask, no matter how many times you run the eraser over it. This is also how selective drawing with constraints works, because it draws only with the specified opacity. 
 13. If you want to mask all but one very small object in the image, it is better to mask only that one object and then invert the mask. Just click on . 
 Pro tip: You have two fill-modes to choose from for filling the mask. When do you choose which one? We have already used the &quot;normal&quot; fill-mode ( ) in our example for large areas. This is the fill-mode to use for sky and water areas. 
 The ray fill-mode performs its tasks very precisely and is preferred for smaller objects, geometric shapes, or other objects with straight lines, as in the example shown. 
 You can now use ray fill-mode to mask the walls of this multi-story building, while leaving the glass surfaces unselected. 
 Pro tip: You can use the &quot;Blend in original image&quot; feature to partially focus selected areas of your image.

                <![CDATA[
                 HDR painter is a powerful tool to manually adjust certain areas by editing individual images of a bracketing series 
 &amp;nbsp;Exposure Bracketing View (left): The individual images of aseries are sorted into red, green and blue. When the bracketing has more than 3 exposures, the master image will be set as 
 green and the next active neighbouring images as red and blue. If you would now like to make changes to the weighting of a particular image, pay attention to the image’s colour and choose the respective colour in the paint symbol bar. 
  To clarify:  The brush does not mean that you are painting colours directly onto the image, you are adjusting the brightness weighting in certain areas of individual images. For example, an HDR result shows a landscape where the exposure is correct everywhere except for the tree in the foreground, which is too dark. Here you can select the brightest image from the series and enhance the brightness of the tree by “painting” the object. The final fusion is a balanced image with a correctly lit tree in the foreground. 
  Adjusted Weighting:  After drawing, the adjusted weighting can be seen to the right of the individual image. The white drawn strokes mean that you have emphasised the tree in the brightest image and that the tree will be brighter in the HDR result. 
 The tree was selectively brightened, and this without altering the brightness of the sky, clouds or plains. The diffused brush makes the transitions invisible. The result is a properly weighted image with a correctly lit tree in the foreground. The well structured sky remains in the background. 
 &amp;nbsp; Important tools of the HDR-Painter:  
  =&amp;gt; Increase weighting:  Draw on the selected area to enhance the weighting of this portion of the image. 
  =&amp;gt; Reduce weighting:  Draw on the selected area to reduce the weighting of this portion of the image. 
  =&amp;gt; Brush size:  Adjust the size of the brush. 
  =&amp;gt; Brush form:  With numerous new brushes, you will find the right from for your selected area. 
  =&amp;gt; Stamp:  The stamping mode not only edits the weighting of the current image but adjusts the weighting of all of the other exposures accordingly. For example, if you use the paint tool to increase the weighting of an area in one image, the weighting of that same section will be reduced in all of the other exposures to amplify the effect. 
  =&amp;gt; Blurring:  If you want soft transitions between corrected and original areas, trace the blurring function over the borders to soften the transitions. 
  =&amp;gt; HDR-image/ weighting:  This function mixes the view between the HDR image and the weighting. This is very effective for maintaining control while drawing. 
  =&amp;gt; Delete weighting:  Delete the drawn weighting for the active image of the series. 
  =&amp;gt; Delete all: Warning:  This function deletes all of the drawn weightings and returns to the initial setting

                <![CDATA[
                 Unfortunately, the micro-contrast enhancement used in HDR photography shows all the unwanted sensor errors that every photographer knows and fears, despite the camera&#039;s internal sensor cleaning. Don&#039;t stress about it - just eliminate them! With the easy-to-use correction function of HDR projects 7 professional, this can even be fun. 
  Pro tip:  This intelligent correction not only removes sensor spots, but also other distracting things - a deserted beach has never been so easy to produce. 
  Here you will learn how to make the correction:  
 Select the brush tool under (6) and click on the point of the image you want to correct. A circle will appear next to it, which will serve as a source. 
 Move this circle to a point of the image that can serve as the source for the first mark. The selected area will then be improved based on the source. 
 Before that, you can use (1) to reveal sensor spots, which will then appear as a bright spot in the image. With (2) you can expose or hide the fixed areas. The corrections are still active even if they have been hidden. The only purpose of hiding is to allow a before and after comparison. 
 You can select multiple areas to be corrected by simply clicking on the brush icon (6) and adding another point. The button (3) allows you to show and hide the targeted corrections, which also controls clarity. 
  NEW:  Under the Quality tab (10), a drop-down menu opens with five new quality modes that let you automatically search for appropriate areas. The different quality levels allow you to scale how the automatic search runs. 
  Note:  This search quality is used for all subsequent search range settings. 
 (5) Deletes the added corrections. The area marked (7) controls the size of the area to be corrected. 
 You also have the option to automatically search for the best source area for enhancement. Click on the button (8). The button (4) calculates the corresponding correction points for all points automatically set with (8). All currently selected corrections can be deleted with the button (9).

                 Here you can precisely configure the settings of the program. 
 For the first steps please use the default settings. These default settings can be restored with the arrow at the bottom left. Nothing can be changed irrevocably. 
 &amp;nbsp; a.) Scaling:  When uploading exposure series, the images can be scaled from 25% up to 900% using 6 different scaling methods. 
  &amp;nbsp;b.) Color Space Conversion:  Advanced users can select a color space here - all other users are advised not to make any adjustments to avoid incorrect color reproduction later. HDR projects 7 professional offers several new color spaces (D65). The standard illuminant D65 is representative for a phase of natural daylight with a color temperature of 6500° Kelvin. 
  &amp;nbsp;c.) White balance:  Corrects color casts that occur when shooting in warmly lit rooms. Leave this setting unchanged at the beginning. 
 &amp;nbsp; d.)  Use this slider to adjust the color temperature if you have already uploaded. It is recommended to leave the setting at &quot;Default&quot; and adjust the color temperature later in post processing 
 &amp;nbsp; e.) Optimizations : Color normalization makes shadows black and highlights white in the image. During loading, the Adjustment: RAW to Camera Display converts the RAW image to almost match the camera and file preview. The automatic brilliance optimization for RAW files can be activated in the image preparation under RAW options. With camera RAW formats, it often happens that the image data does not use all available tonal values. 
 The automatic brilliance optimization compensates for this in the uploaded RAW images by boosting the tonal values in such a way that a reasonably used histogram is created for each camera RAW image. 
 In bracketing, this option is only useful if you are creating HDR images from a single RAW. If the automatic rotation of images is activated, they are automatically rotated according to the Exif orientation. 
  f.) Noise reduction:  With these buttons you can select the accuracy of the noise reduction, and the slider controls the degree of sharpness for the edges. Here dark images can be heavily denoised and hot pixels (bright spots caused by the camera sensor in dark situations) can be removed. 
  g.) Exposure:  can be selected if an image in an exposure series is incorrectly exposed and/or blurred and must therefore be supplemented by the program. In the case of a dark exposure series, it is recommended to use the &quot;Optimize dark areas&quot; function to remove any color casts. Bright areas and details can also be optimized in bright exposure series 
  h.) Align:  Here you can control how the individual images within the exposure series are superimposed. Corrections to subtle movements, unintentional zooming, camera rotation and micro details can be considered here, although the default setting usually produces the desired result. Automatic cropping removes edges caused by overlapping exposures. You can select &quot;fog, night sky&quot; or &quot;landscape, architecture, people&quot; or &quot;soft subjects (strong bokeh)&quot; to find the perfect alignment for your image. 
  i.) Automatic ghost correction:  HDR projects 7 professional uses a highly precise ghost removal to filter out subjects and people that move within the exposure series, i.e., appear in different places on the individual images. Without correction, people or vehicles would appear multiple times as a semi-transparent blur in your resulting image, creating a complete mess, as they would move and be in a different place in each shot. 
 &amp;nbsp; 
 Detail prediction is a special process: it attempts to predict movement within the exposure bracket, allowing you to remove ghosting in a more targeted manner. In addition, intelligent tuning is adapted to living creatures, landscape, architecture and sports. Here the correction works perfectly with the &quot;Living beings&quot; setting

                 As with any HDR, it begins with proper bracketing. With this design you might think that an HDR would be unnecessary anyway and the whole picture could also be done with one exposure. Think again! The devil is in the details, especially here. Such a design contains enormous differences in brightness and many fine details that only become visible with the right HDR. Therefore, the bracketing is the foundation which must be carefully considered and chosen. 
  Example: Winter landscape at Katschberg in Carinthia  
 
 Place the camera on a sturdy tripod 
 Turn off all of the camera’s automatics 
 If not already done, set file format to RAW 
 Set white balance to daylight filters (can also be changed later in the HDR process) 
 Photograph bracketing with 1 f-stop difference, in this case, there were 7 individual exposures 
 Visual control on the camera screen – is everything on it?! 
 Quick stop at the next hut to warm up? 
 
  Arriving at home in the warmth, HDR projects 4 comes next!  
 
 Load bracketing in HDR projects 
 In the first dialogue, turn off everything except the alignment correction 
 Select HDR algorithm – my favorite: “logarithmic luminance” or “absolute distance” 
 With this design, I have no problems with ghosting either, so I can go directly to the post-processing again. 
 Turn off optimization wizards 
 Set intelligent color space to &quot;based on brightness&quot; 
 Click &quot;expert&quot; and select the post-processing effects 
 Remove chromatic aberration 50% 
 Tone mapping cradient: 500px – 40% – 45% 
 For more structure: local contrast compensation 70px – 180px 
 Denoise Sky 50% 
 Lighten the design a bit: Dynamic Brightness 50% 
 Customize contrasts: gradation curves 
 Slight S-shape for a crisper picture. But watch out in the bright white areas, so the details do not get lost! 
 Intensify colors: color palette 
 Boost the blue tones of the sky a little with 10% 
 Customize colors: move blue tones a bit into cyan -5 ° 
 Fine-tune sharpening: with 60% and the masking to “extreme shooters” 
 
 Then one last detail control, by clicking on the calculation of the full resolution. If everything looks good here, save the finished HDR. Then the picture will be finalized in Photo projects or Lightroom. Then I usually apply another lens correction, which checks and, if necessary, adapts the color and contrast and perhaps darken the sky a little more at the top of the screen. 
  Snow has to look like snow  The most important thing in winter landscapes is the snow and the details in the snow. Here, during the HDR process, you have to pay very close attention to the snow, so that it stays white and the details come out nicely. With the right mix of “local contrast compensation”, “dynamic brightness” and “tone curve”, the snow can be defined wonderfully. Again, the same rule as for all other HDR motives also applies here: less is more! With the HDR technique, it’s all about reproducing, what I have seen and experienced on the spot. My eye is the best camera in the world. And with HDR photos I can get very close to its kind of quality.

                 Image post-processing is simply a must for every photographer today. As a user, you want to achieve a good result as quickly as possible, even with complex software that allows many selectable algorithms for perfect and individual results. Then, of course, it is a great advantage to be able to quickly assess the effects of complex procedures and make a quick decision. With the variant browser and its graphical overview, exactly this goal is achieved. 
 After an HDR image has been loaded into the post-processing window, a decision must be made whether to use a scenario, an HDR weighting mode or possibly one of the options of the Tuning Wizard. In all cases, it is always the same icon for the Variant Browser in front of the pull-up menu with the respective options. 
 Of course, each option could now be tried out one after the other on the large screen. However, a visual overview of all variants at the same time is much more effective. This way, all algorithms can be compared nicely side by side in a single window, and it also saves a lot of time. 
 &amp;nbsp; 
 If you click on the browser icon to the left of the pull-up menu with the options, a relatively short calculation is started despite many variants. A separate, new window is displayed immediately. 
 Here you can see at first glance what the respective algorithm does. In this example it is the weighting modes. The ideal candidate can now be selected at leisure. Once the favorite has been determined, the desired variant is quickly set up with a simple double-click and the window closes. If the current algorithm was already perfect and no change has been made, simply go back with the close button. 
 &amp;nbsp; 
 This way, the right decision can be made in no time at all, and, by the way, the variant browser is always perfect for inspiration.

                 In BLACK &amp;amp; WHITE projects 4 you can now adjust the sensitivity to emulate color filters in your images. In analog times this technique was created with different films, but now modern software for black &amp;amp; white photography and the new FRANZIS algorithms do it for you! 
  Your advantage:  you have more influence and control over your result, especially over the brightness of the individual &quot;colors&quot; in your image to better suit your needs. 
 &amp;nbsp; 
  Sensitive selective editing: geometric or brush with intelligent contour detection  
 It is often the case that individual areas of an image need to be edited differently than others. The fourth generation of BLACK &amp;amp; WHITE projects masters this challenge perfectly and is super flexible to boot. The geometric selection feature is great for large areas or clearly outlined objects, while the delicate and sensitive brush is best for tricky areas. The BW projects 4 correction brush detects structures and edges you want to change and highlights the colors in the affected areas. 
 You benefit because you no longer have to compromise when editing your photos. Each area gets the effect that suits it best! 
 &amp;nbsp; 
  Preset keywords for more order in your image ideas  
 Built-in presets are your most efficient weapon from BW projects in search of inspiration. In seconds, you&#039;ll be presented with 115 examples of your image, and you can easily choose one you like. You can&#039;t find a simpler, more creative and inspiring program! New in BLACK &amp;amp; WHITE projects 4 is the ability to label personally created presets so you can find them more easily later. Wouldn&#039;t it be a shame if your own creations got lost? 
 &amp;nbsp; 
  The highlights of BLACK &amp;amp; WHITE projects 4:  
 ■ New: Sensitive, selective photo editing with intelligent contour detection. 
 ■ New: New algorithms for perfect color filter emulations 
 ■ New: Full-fledged Lightroom plug-in included 
 ■ BLACK &amp;amp; WHITE development studio for professional black and white with 115 presets. 
 ■ Powerful denoise and sharpness engines. 
 ■ Shading and selective drawing tools. 
 ■ Brighten and enhance details

                 Export to Photoshop and post-editing in HDR projects: It is of course also possible to create and edit a photo montage in any other program using the same images used to make up the HDR image in HDR projects 5. This involves deactivating the montage by clicking the icon on the right side of the selective painting button. HDR projects 5 pro. Following this, activate the preset “Naturally Fine Details”. 
 If there is already an alternative photo editing program defined in the settings within the export submenu, exporting the image will be a piece of cake. To avoid quality reduction when exporting, use the TIFF 16-bit format. Now the photo can be quickly exported to Photoshop for further editing. When finished editing in Photoshop, the image can be once again uploaded into HDR projects 5 as an individual HDR image. 
 Our image here has been cropped using Photoshop and uploaded again in TIFF-format, however an upload in PSD format would have also been possible. HDR projects 5 creates two synthetic variations and once again applies the most recently used preset. 
 The image duplicates, automatic subject brilliance, the optimization assistant and the effects in expert mode can now all be deactivated since there is already an HDR image available. It would be quite easy at this stage to apply a new mask using the selective painting tool and add a new background to the image. 
 Now the masking tool using brightness can be applied with sensitivity levels at 0% without a problem. Applying this mask doesn’t involve hand selecting any part of object at all. There appears however an outline around the object. This can be removed by expanding the masked area by 10 pixels using the tools in the column to the right. Now the new background can be uploading by clicking on the chessboard pattern. 
 This time around we’ve chosen sky as our new background. Now this impressively composed image can continue to be edited in HDR projects 5. Meanwhile there exists an even better alternative. 
   Photoshop filter plug-in  All programs released in their fifth version provide access to a fully-fledged Photoshop Filter Plug-in. This allows for photo-editing on a whole other level. HDR images can be directly exported to Photoshop or simply saved beforehand and opened using the program. 
 Beginning once again to edit our image using the various cropping methods, the image including the sky background can be accessed in Photoshop. For a more realistic touch, we could have used Photoshop to place clouds in front of the bottom edge of the basket. For an explanation of this feature, however, this is not completely necessary. The possibilities speak for themselves. 
 At this stage we recommend making a smart object out of the individual layers. After accessing the filter an Information window will appear. 
 HDR projects 5 professional must first be closed, but everything functions fine after restarting the program. This is caused by Adobe settings and is notoriously known to occur when accessing any external filter. After applying the &quot;preset landscape color and details&quot;, our result looks like this: 
 Or when applying the &quot;smooth shine&quot; preset and a reduced tonal value in the optimization assistant: 
 Located above in the right column, a new button has been added to HDR projects 5 professional for exporting finalized images to Photoshop. With one click on “Apply”, the finalized image is exported back and HDR projects 5 closes. Thanks to smart o bjects, changes can continue to be made at any time. One click of the Smart Object will open HDR projects 5 once again. Presets can also be consecutively selected and thus combined, also visible in the layers palette underneath the Smart Filter. 
 If an exposure bracket is loaded into Photoshop in the form of layers, these cannot be transferred together to a single filter. 
 It would be possible, however, to transform five images into a Smart Object. 
 The filters would then function, but ultimately wouldn’t make much sense given only one real photo and two duplications are used. 
  GPS Information  HDR projects 5 pro also possesses the ability to read GPS data from image files, provided these are saved in the exif data. This information is available in the Display Menu -&amp;gt; Exif Information Window. 
 Clicking on the button at the bottom will open your web browser and direct you to OpenStreetMap.org where you can pinpoint the photograph location on a map. 
 After the final edits have been applied to the image, it can be further cropped either by using the symbol above in the tools tab or when saving. New features have also been added in this section, such as the long-awaited option for maintaining the original image dimensions. 
 This version also includes a display of the central point of the image, resembled by a small dot in the middle of the screen. Otherwise, all the useful tools from previous versions are still available, such as the golden cut, golden spiral, etc. That does it for the new features, and there are indeed a great – as can be seen from the length of this review. 
  Conclusion  The new HDR projects 5 delivers a wide range of new features and innovations of all kinds in many different editing fields. Existing algorithms, effects and preset underwent an extensive revision and many new ones were introduced. The photographic results appear natural looking and realistic while potential image interferences are kept to a minimum. 
 Ghosting correction and its automatic capabilities provide quality results in seconds even when working with rather difficult exposure brackets. Photoshop users are bound to rejoice over the new filter plug-in and even the RAW module was granted a bundle of new capabilities. Thanks to multicore support and the sharpened preview mode, HDR projects 5 now runs smoothly as ever while providing the highest quality display options. 
 The developers were once again successful in providing a quick and time-saving program that delivers impressive results, and, at the same time, all sorts of tools for professional and newcomers levels alike. The new composing editing possibilities have put the software well on its way to be able to do pretty much anything. With this latest software release, the developers have proven their worth of the title as the HDR technology leaders to the fullest extent. HDR projects 5 professional is more than just HDR Software and will continue to amaze.

                 FOCUS projects professional is the 5th projects software from FRANZIS. The one-click solution perfectly generates a photo with a large depth of field throughout from a series of varying depths of field. This application is great for both amateur and professional photographers, for example those in advertising or commercial photography. 
 Focus stacking is a photographic and post-processing technique that is popular in macro photography for it’s depth of field expansion in which a series of photos are stacked. However, the stacked photos in this case are not taken with exposure bracketing, but with depth of field bracketing where there is a different plain of focus in each photo. FOCUS projects is tuned to take photos with different plains of focus in a series of photos and merge them into one photo. To do this, the software uses eight specially developed Focus stacking algorithms that work with 32-bit precision and perfectly aligns each photo in the series based on the automatic, or manual, assessment of the sharpest areas of the subject throughout the series. Up to 400 photos with varying focus plains in in RAW, TIFF or JPG formats can be merged into a single stack. 
  FOCUS projects professional summary  
 FOCUS projects professional convinced us across the board of it’s capabilities with the delivered test results. That said, for good results, you do need to pay attention your technique while taking the photo. Otherwise, not even the best software can deliver satisfying results. We especially liked that you have the ability to adjust each post-processing effect individually achieve a look that fits your personal preferences. The entire program, as we know from the other products in the projects series, is structured logically and is intuitive to use. With a little practice you can quickly develop a personal workflow that quickly leads to good results. It needs to be said that FOCUS projects professional is not only for macro or product photography, but is also perfectly suited for landscape photos with an uncompromisingly large depth of field throughout.

                 Boudoir photography is one of the latest trends from America to make its way across the world, and is personally one of my favorite genres to photograph. Many women choose to do boudoir sessions as gifts for their significant others, and some just do it for themselves maybe to mark a special time in their lives, or even as a way to challenge themselves to do something completely out of character. Whatever the reason behind a boudoir session, my goal is always to make these women feel beautiful, and for even my most shy, nervous clients to leave the session feeling great about themselves and more confident than ever when they see their gorgeous photos. 
 One of the things I love the most about boudoir photography is that is can be anything you want it to be! It can be cute and flirty, light an airy, beautiful and sexy, dark and gritty, and the list goes on. The direction my sessions go usually reflect quite a bit on the personality of my clients and the location, which means no two sessions are ever alike. However, it is still important to maintain a consistent style. 
 My style, especially for boudoir photography, tends to bold colors and rich in contrast. That said, some of my favorite boudoir photos are black &amp;amp; white. 
 There are times during my post-processing where I will come across an image that I know has potential to be a great portfolio shot, but for one reason or another, my usual editing just isn’t quite doing the trick. Then I’ll try a black &amp;amp; white edit and the image literally transforms right before eyes into the stunner I knew it could be. 
 And of course other times I know right away that a photo is just made to be black &amp;amp; white because the lighting or the emotion in the photo just screams black &amp;amp; white (as with the silhouette photo below). 
 While I love colorful photos, colors sometimes distract from what we photographers want the viewers to see and feel, and making a photo black &amp;amp; white helps bring that out.
