PhotoAcute Studio 2.0 to enhance the quality of digital images beyond the camera capabilities
Almalence
Incorporated announces PhotoAcute Studio 2.0 - the breakthrough
software product that dramatically enhances digital photos quality.
PhotoAcute Studio processes sets of images taken in continuous mode. It
utilizes super resolution algorithms to convert a sequence of photos
into a single high-resolution and low-noise picture that could only be
taken with much better camera.
PhotoAcute Studio improves all major image quality factors. The features at a glance are:
- Spatial resolution increase
- Noise reduction without losing image details
- Dynamic range expansion
- Geometry distortions and vignetting correction
- Chromatic aberrations correction
PhotoAcute
Studio operates for various camera and image types - from mobile
cameras to DSLR cameras supporting RAW format and 16-bit color. The
greatest leap in quality is achieved on RAW photos taken with DSLR
cameras that gives the professional photographers an essential use.
The spatial
resolution is one of the most important factors of digital image
quality. It is limited by camera's matrix and lens, but this limit can
be exceeded by means of super resolution - the method of enhancing the
resolution of an image or of an optical system. This can be done by
either acquiring more graphic information (e.g. taking and merging
several images of the same object) or by reconstructing the details
lost due to the faultiness of the optical system (applying the
knowledge of the optical system properties). PhotoAcute Studio uses
both ways to achieve the maximum image quality. The
laboratory measurements of the widely accepted MTF50 parameter,
performed with Canon 300D camera, show the doubling of the effective
resolution.
The
super resolution technology is used in supercomputer data processing in
the industries such as satellite imaging and astronomy. Almalence
engineers developed new mathematical methods of super resolution
processing and implemented them within the software application for
personal computers, making this powerful technology available for
photographers.
The noise is the
most undesirable factor that degrades image quality. The main problem
of the noise reduction is the loss of image details. This becomes
mostly apparent in the low light areas of the image, where the noise
reduction removes both the noise and the details. PhotoAcute Studio
combines several photos of the same scene, separating the useful signal
and the noise, thus providing strong noise reduction without losing the
image details.
Besides
resolution enhancement and noise reduction, PhotoAcute Studio corrects
common image artefacts: geometry distortions, chromatic aberrations and
vignetting. By merging several images taken at different exposures,
PhotoAcute Studio expands the dynamic range of the resultant image,
revealing the details usually clipped in the highlights and the shadows.
All these
features virtually improve the whole camera from matrix to lens,
providing the possibility of taking better images even for those who
use advanced and professional cameras.
PhotoAcute
Studio is useful for wide range of photographers, who are interested in
taking high quality images. Professional photographers, for whom the
image quality is essential, will find it a good tool for achieving the
best results in their work. For amateur photographers this product will
be an add-on to their cameras, providing better images without changing
the camera itself.
PhotoAcute Studio is Windows based application. The version for Macintosh is to be released in 2007Q1.

PhotoAcute Studio 2.0 is available for free in trial mode.
The price of the full version varies depending on supported camera
types: from $19 for mobile phone cameras to $119 for DSLR cameras with
the support of RAW format and 16-bit color. Users can get free licenses
by contributing to PhotoAcute Studio development.
