Aragon Systems has launched Helios, an image handling application for photographers. Helios offers a complete solution for photo processing workflow, from development of raw photos to printing, for Windows users. Apart from standard operations such as curves, colour adjustments, cropping and red eye removal, advanced tools such as distortion/perspective control, noise removal, adaptive contrast adjustment are included. All results are automatically saved and the user can start over at any point with an earlier version of the photo. A full licence is priced at €49, and both a time-limited trial version and a free “light” version are available too.
