Photo-i have reviewed LightZone, a new intuitive tool which extends the capabilities of professional and amateur photographers, based on Ansel Adam’s Zone System.

“Opening a RAW photo often gives you a special kind of ZoneMapper, the RAW ZoneMapper, applying some basic adjustment suitably for the format. As with a normal ZoneMapper you can change the zones here. It is a good idea to leave this mapper in peace, opening a normal one for further corrections because that way you will always have this basic adjustment and not start from scratch if something goes wrong. Mind that not all RAW formats have a RAW ZoneMapper, either they don’t need any pre-adjustment or the format is not supported by LightCrafts. As long as you can open the file in LightZone you can adjust to its needs and your taste.”
