White Balance – Sliders for tweaking white balance turned out to be too abrupt and jumpy for some reason, so you shouldn’t put in a lot of effort. Repair – Heal/Clone and Red Eye adjustment. Geometry – Lens Correction, Cropping, Perspective adjustments. Tune – Large number of sliders for adjusting white balance, shadows, lighting, skin tone, split tone, and more.ĭetail – This can be considered the main and only section for image retouching. You can create presets for both separate tools and entire images. After saving certain settings, I’ve applied them to my other photos. This mode greatly resembles Lightroom not only because of the toolset layout but also because of the ability to create and save presets. In this regard, touch support for Lightroom Classic is well ahead of ACDSee. But when I tested them, I didn’t quite like the responsiveness and interaction. It allows you to scale images in the folder. You may choose the color of the interface: light, silver or charcoal, remove/add the desired toolbars.īesides, it supports touch gestures. You can pick between different UI colors: light, silver, and charcoal as well as delete/add toolbars. The ACD See app uses a standard 3-panel workspace with image folders on the left, the preview screen and tools in the middle, and the features on the right panel.

The mode contains a long list of tools at the bottom of the left panel. In ACDSee Photo Studio Professional editing mode, you will find pixel-level tools such as picture retouching, watermarks and text overlay. This is a typical function for photo processing software, but it limits competition by using impressive buffering speed once again.ĭevelop - Here you may find the main tools for color correction of your shot: Exposure, Contrast, Saturation – along with vibrancy and clarity settings.Įdit - The edit mode may be described as “all in one”. View - In ACDSee, the View mode is a more detailed section where you may view images one by one along with the files of a larger size. It allows a more comprehensive way of viewing image files on your hard drive, and you can drill down to specific day/month/year views. Photos - Photos mode is similar to Manage. This function is quite useful since with the correct settings, you will find the right shot out of thousands in a matter of seconds. Manage - Management mode consists of a library of images where you can index scores, categories, labels and more. Thankfully, the developers decided to continue this tendency and divided ACDsee editor into 5 main modes located in separate tabs that will be covered in this ADCsee 20 review. With their help, the learning curve becomes significantly simpler. If you’ve previously used or studied Lightroom, you probably remember its separate modules. Taking into account all the above-mentioned positive and negative features of this picture editor, I will probably place it into the list of top 10 best programs for work with photos. The developers are still in the process of creating their softwares, adding new tools and functions, among the recent ones is “facial recognition”. Like Adobe, ACDSee has been on the market since the early days of digital photography. The ACDSee documentation is helpful though so, if you can live with being "in the minority", the money you save by using ACDSee's excellent product is definitely worthwhile.Like Adobe, ACDSee has been on the market since the early days of digital photography. There will surely be differences but I'm yet to be disappointed or held back by ACDSee's functionality.One thing that Photoshop does have over ACDSee is an abundance of tutorials, demonstrations and help available from the large user base online. I've never been a Photoshop user so cannot compare features. ![]() My moderately spec'ed computer manages it well, so workflow is reasonably fast.Import/export is painless, batch editing is helpful, colour management is simple.I particularly like how affordable ACDSee is for my very small business compared to the alternatives. ![]() Photo management, image development and poweful image editing all rolled into one. It is yet to let me down (so long as I don't try running it on an under-spec'ed machine). It provides all the functionality I need for image management and post-processing. Comments: ACDSee photo editor (I use the Ultimate version) has been a game changer for my photography side business.
