onOne Software Perfect Effects 3

Live Preview

Save time and boost your creativity with the new Live Preview. You will no longer have to wonder how an effect will look on your image or waste time applying an effect just to see how it looks.

With Live Preview you will now be able to see what each effect looks like on your image, in real time. This is a huge timesaver and a great way to explore the creative options of the hundreds of effects in Perfect Effects.

Adding a live, interactive preview of each effect was one of the top feature requests of PhotoTools users and we heard you loud and clear. So much in fact, that we rebuilt Perfect Effects from the ground up to give you the live preview functionality you asked for.



Manual Controls

You now have even greater creative control over how effects are applied and combined on your image. With the New Manual Controls, you will be able to adjust every element of an effect - not just the strength but also the color, tone and texture.

This provides you with a powerful way to find an effect they like and then to tweak and customize it to create they own unique look.



Works Where You Do

Perfect Effects 3 integrates seamlessly into your workflow, no matter what tools and software you use. Whether it's Photoshop, Lightroom, Aperture – or you can even use Perfect Effects on its own.

Perfect Effects continues to work as a plug-in to Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements but no longer requires them when working in Lightroom or Aperture.


Vintage Effects

All the rage right now, stylized and vintage effects give your images and hip, old school look. Here's just a few examples of the new effect you'll find in Perfect Effects.

Brand New from the Ground Up Shortly after its initial release in 2007, PhotoTools quickly became one of the most popular plug-ins at onOne Software. And with good reason. PhotoTools leveraged the power of Photoshop and made it instantly accessible to those new to Photoshop as well as making it easier for power users to get their work done quickly.

A lot has changed since 2007 in the photographer's digital workflow as more and more the photographers workflow is centered on applications like Lightroom and Aperture. Perfect Effects 3 is a direct response to this evolution. To give photographers the power of the amazing effects directly within Lightroom and Aperture, Perfect Effects was built new from the ground up.

Now photographers can choose to use Perfect Effects 3 as an external editor for Lightroom and Aperture or as a Photoshop plug-in. It can even be used on it's own as a standalone application – giving photographers complete flexibility in their workflow.
