Kodak Releases PROFESSIONAL DCS Photo Desk v4.0
Posted by James Fee in "SOFTWARE" @ 05:00 PM
Kodak has released a new version of its Photo Desk software which now supports newer Kodak Professional cameras. New features are listed below.• Lens Optimization Slider Control - A convenient, easy-to-use slider control enables users to adjust the degree of compensation applied for a given RAW image to minimize potential hue shift introduced by certain lenses captured with KODAK PROFESSIONAL DCS Pro SLR/n, DCS Pro SLR/c and DCS Pro 14nx (upgraded) digital cameras with firmware 5.0 or newer installed.
• A new "Paste Settings" function, available in the edit menu, is designed to speed workflow giving users the ability to copy image adjustments made to one image and apply them to other images. The "Paste Special" editing function allows a subset of individual settings (such as cropping or color balance) to be applied to other images.
• EXIF2.2 is fully supported enabling copyright, exposure, and other information to be carried forward as metadata into JPEG and TIFF files.
• Multi-Processor Support yields improved processing times when using PC and MAC hardware with two or more processors.
• In response to user feedback and to improve the overall user interface, the "trash can" has been moved to the right hand side of the toolbar to avoid unintentional file deletion.
