Photo-Lux Image Viewer v.3.7

"Photo-Lux" is an easy-to-use but powerful and fast image viewer and more.

• Image Formats.

   This viewer supports every file type you can imagine, and even some you can't. The following graphics formats are supported: BMP, CUR, DIB, EMF, FAX, G3N/G3F, GIF, ICB, ICO, J2C / J2K / JP2 / JPC(JPEG2000), JPG/JPEG/JFIF/JIF (RGB, Grayscale, YCbCr, CMYK and YCbCrK color spaces + EXIF and IPTC info), PBM, PCX/DCX, PSD/PDD, PGM, PNG, PPM, PXM, RLE, TGA, TIF/TIFF (Packbits, JPEG, LZW, CCITT G.3 and G.4 with RGB, CMYK, B/W, CIELab color spaces), VDA/VST, WBMP and WMF. Plus, it supports almost all of Camera RAWs formats: DNG (Adobe), BAY (Casio), CRW, CR2 (Canon), ERF (Epson), DCR (Kodak), MEF (Mamija), MRW (Minolta), NEF (Nikon), ORF (Olympus), PEF (Pentax), RAF (Fuji), RAW (Panasonic), ARW, SRF, SR2 (Sony), X3F (Sigma).

• Image Viewing.

   To smooth the edges and to reduce the noise artifacts, "Photo-Lux" can display your images on the screen using different High Quality Zoom Filters.

• Auto rotating.

   For JPEGs, TIFFs and RAWs it uses EXIF-tag to auto rotate the images.

• Multi-Folder Image Browsing.

   You can easily walk through the images using the "Previous File in the Directory" and "Next File in the Directory" buttons. Each window stores the folder of its file. Say, if you have several opened images (windows) at the same time from different folders - you can walk through the images separately - each window allows browsing its own folder independently.

• Image Editing.

   This image viewer has many high performance imaging operations such as RGB- , Brightness/Contrast/Gamma- correction, Auto White Balance, Red-eye Reduction and more. Plus, many filters, including Bump-Map, Gaussian Blur, Prism etc. A good-looking 3D-Text can be written on the image using a 3D-Text drawing tool.

  To insert image data from another graphic file into the current image (for example, to insert a graphic logo into the image) a powerful Merge command can be used.

   "Photo-Lux" allows to apply some filters (like Linear, Bicubic, Mitchell, Lanczos3 etc.) when resizing the image, to produce better results.

• Thumbnail Previewing.

   The extended Open dialog of "Photo-Lux" has a thumbnail mode and lets you browse quickly through numerous image files, and open each of them with a double click.

• Full Screen View and Slideshow.

   The incredible full screen mode of "Photo-Lux" can display images with more than 160 image transition effects including wipes, diagonals, pushes, pulls, blinds, and many others.

• TWAIN/WIA support makes it possible to acquire image data from raster-generating devices such as scanners, digital cameras, and video digitizers.

• Frames. "Photo-Lux" offers a very simple way to add frames to images.
• IPTC Editor.
• EXIF Editor.
