Photographers: Would you like to have nearly all of the capabilities of Lightroom/Darkroom photo editing software, without the high cost? You've come to the right place! This professional photo editing software for Windows and Mac OSX is undoubtedly one of the BEST alternatives currently available, and will open and edit your RAW files. Get the best out of your expensive digital camera by using RAW files to their fullest capabilities! Comes on a USB thumb drive to your mailbox.

NEW Version Released!

Yes, we all love that industry-standard CS or CC software made by corporate giants. But did you know that company (eBay forbids us to use their name) recently moved to a "subscription-based" software platform? This means that if you want to use their Cloud software, you'll have to cough up $20-$50 per month FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE as long as you keep using it. If you stop paying, none of the files you saved or created can be opened until you start paying again!

Who has the money for that kind of nonsense?

Don't get suckered into turning your software needs into just another expensive, monthly bill! It's much easier to get this software. It's a fraction of the cost, and has most or nearly all the capabilities of "that other program". You too can be a master photo editor, without breaking the bank! This software comes on a CD, delivered right to your mailbox.

If you’re looking to start shooting RAW images and find yourself outgrowing iPhoto or Picasa, you’re going to need a way to process RAW camera files.
You’re going to need to do quick non-destructive photo manipulations on groups of images, and if you’re shooting a ton of photos, you’ll need a way to manage them so that you can find what you want when you want it. You need LightZone!

LightZone is professional-level digital darkroom software for Windows and Mac OS X. BOTH versions are included on this drive! It works totally different from anything you know, yet is familiar enough to get your photo jobs done quickly and with style.

Lightzone has a clean and stylish user interface with a dark gray theme that has become popular in most image editing type apps now. The user interface splits into two distinct sections: the Browse window for navigating your files, and the Edit window for working on specific images. This arrangement is very intuitive and will feel familiar to users of several similar photo editing applications.

If you've worked with a RAW converter or image editor before, then you will find the basics of Lightzone very easy to navigate. Rather than using layers as many other photo editors do, LightZone lets the user build up a stack of tools which can be rearranged, turned off and on, and removed from the stack. It's a non-destructive editor, where any of the tools can be re-adjusted or modified later - even in a different editing session. A tool stack can be copied to a batch of photos at one time. LightZone operates in a 16-bit linear color space with the wide gamut of ProPhoto RGB.

While many of LightZone's tools are standard fare, it offers some unusual ones for tonal control - meaning brightness, contrast, shadows, highlights, etc. Some are inspired by the Zone System, and some are inspired by HDR tone-mapping. These tools put LightZone in a class by itself for working with black-and-white imagery. They're useful for color photos, too.
