Ashampoo Photo Optimizer 8

For straightforward photo corrections with an automatic starting point and room for manual adjustment. Ashampoo Photo Optimizer 8 improves photos automatically with one click, correcting exposure, contrast, colour temperature and sharpness, and offers manual controls for noise reduction, perspective correction, red-eye removal, cropping and rotation. Several photos can be optimised in one batch, and a before/after view compares the result with the original. Automatic optimisation offers a quick starting point when a photograph looks dull, uneven or otherwise needs basic improvement. Manual adjustments then provide a way to change the result according to the image’s intended appearance. Cropping can remove distracting edges, while rotation corrects orientation or framing. This is useful when preparing personal photographs or a group of images for sharing and you want a direct correction workflow rather than a complex design workspace. An automatic result is a suggestion, not an objective definition of how the picture should look. Compare colours, skin tones and contrast with the original, especially when the photograph has an intentional lighting mood. Keep a source copy and inspect the image at its intended output size. Features differ between the named releases, so newer tools should not be assumed.
