Photomizer Retro turns the image editing upside down: If the predecessor
polished up old photos it is now exactly the other way round. With the
simulation of old cameras and black-and-white films, Photomizer Retro
helps you revive the very special charm of past eras in your digital
photos. For this purpose the program was equipped with special retro
filters, with which you can reproduce the peculiarities of many historic
cameras and film material that has not been available for a long time.
Together with the new frames and the surprisingly effective Lo-Fi
alternative you guarantee a lot of surprising effects in your digital
slide shows and photo books. By the way, Lo-Fi is the simulation of a
nearly extinct type of photography with simple equipment like for
instance a pinhole camera.
As intuitive as could be: A user interface sets the standard
Photomizer Retro like all the other Photomizer versions provides the
most accessible and most easy-to-operate user interface among the known
image editing applications. All the functions are extremely easy to
access and to operate. Like with Photomizer Pro, Photomizer 2 and
Photomizer Scan you work smoothly, target-oriented and undisturbed by
any distractions. The optically attractive interface allows editing that
is even a bit more intuitive and a bit better and it is almost a pity
that the popular 1-click optimization relieves the user from most of the
work. A new zoom function and full-screen preview for a better image
analysis was also integrated. This makes it easier to reveal weak spots
in your photos and to determine the required settings.
Profiles for a faster and more effective editing
The new editing profiles increase the user friendliness. These are sets
of defaults that can be applied to complete groups of photos and which
take care of their characteristic features. Included in delivery are
profiles for creative optimization in retro look and insertion of
frames. This time-saving and efficient collection can be completed by
your own profiles for individual viewing habits.
Additional highlights
- In addition to the special retro effects, the capable profiles and the
intuitive interface Photomizer Retro provides the following functions:

or grain or even fractal noise.

complete photo collections. New: If requested, all original paths are
kept during storage.

mobile devices and for playback on screens as well as BMP for permanent
archiving in high definition.

- Non destructive image editing: The original photo remains unchanged in all steps
- Manual optimization: Additional options for individual editing of single photos - also in full-screen mode.
