Magic Bullet PhotoLooks 1.5

Whether you shoot in the studio or on location, PhotoLooks is a powerful new application that lets you manipulate and experiment with light while preserving essential photographic detail. Use it with Photoshop, Lightroom or Aperture or on its own. Sophisticated presets and customizable tools make it easy to control lighting conditions and create stylized effects. Get up and running right away with tools inspired by your real-life experience with your camera. Take your photos from ordinary to a tropical beach or desert sunrise, or use effects like shutter streak or bleach bypass for edgier looks. Set the right mood for portraits, candid wedding shots, commercial or fine art photography. With PhotoLooks, "golden hour" can be anytime you like.

100-Look Library
For the first time, you can design and refine a look with a user experience that balances ease of use with the power of 36 distinct Look Tools. The new interface offers Quick Drawers for accessing tools and presets without taking up valuable space. Tool controls keep clutter to a minimum. Also, a linear-light processing engine provides fluid interaction using the power of your graphics card.

You've Got The Power
Unlike other Photoshop plug-ins that are just a collection of presets with sliders and checkboxes, PhotoLooks includes 36 powerful tools that let you customize the precise look you need. The interface and tools are inspired by your real-life experience with your camera making it easy to get started. Behind the scenes, PhotoLooks' optical processing engine calculates light values in the same way that real light and lenses behave. You'll get instant visual feedback and more realistic effects.

Looks with Legs
It's your choice: use Magic Bullet PhotoLooks as a standard Photoshop, Lightroom or Aperture plug-in, or work in the standalone version to conserve memory and work faster. Refine and create looks anywhere, whether in your studio or on location, using any image as a foundation. Portable presets allow you to create and share your looks with other professionals or get quick approvals from clients.
