SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro 7 is RAW development software for professionals to enable a partial color correction by circular / gradual filter, or equips with completely new sharpness from superior outline detection algorithm.

From dark area to highlight, RAW development engine of SILKYPIX improves the gradation further
In SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro7, “Color representation” and “Gradation” in highlight part have been improved significantly. This achievement was bought by the improvement of RAW development engine and implemented by further deeply analyzing the information of RAW data, therefore it achieved the extension of the dynamic range in developing processing level.

Color tone corrections on designated ranges with the Circular / Gradual Correction Filter
In the preview screen you can correct partial color in the specified circle area. For example, partially if you want to change the brightness and white balance, you can easily specify the intuitive area and correct it. It enables to implement the correction which was not carried out by the conventional SILKYPIX series.

Completely new sharpness from superior outline detection
Generally, when sharpness is set strong, there is one side effect that the noise is emphasized in blurry outlines or out-of-focus part. A completely new focus plane and logic for detecting out-of-focus part have been developed for SILKYPIX Developer Studio 7 so that you can apply strong sharpness only on the focus point.

L-Tone Curve for vivid high-key expressions
You can maintain colors even when changing brightness with the “L Tone Curve” installed in SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro 7’s tone curve. “L” refers to “Luminance,” and it is possible to adjust only luminance information with the L curve. Therefore, even with high-key finishing, the subject’s tones and vividness remain. This is a convenient function for subjects who appreciate soft expressions such as in portraits.

JPEG and TIFF format can be edited at high quality
Feature of RAW development which is high-quality exposure, white balance, and noise reduction, can also be carried out most of the adjustment function in JPEG or TIFF.
This is our technology “SILKYPIX RAW Bridge” which extents JPEG and TIFF to 16bit and converts JPEG or TIFF to close RAW data internally. It is possible photo editing with high image quality and less quality deterioration even in JPEG or TIFF.

Color management and print simulation
SILKYPIX obtains color management in monitor or printing, also simulation function “Printer proof” which simulates the color on the monitor close condition in printed result by specifying the ICC profile. These features support a process from accurate editing to printing.

By spot removal function a retouching software is unnecessary
At RAW development you can remove the unwanted substances in the dust and the subject of the image due to contamination of the sensor. By removing spots at RAW development, you can export to JPEG or TIFF with the spot is removed even if you have made the adjustment of color in developing again.

Easy operation and high quality
In SILKYPIX Developer Studio Pro 7 there are many useful functions to finish photos, but the operation is controlled by the menu or the slider. Therefore, RAW development beginners can finish a photo without a complicated operation.
