![]() ![]() One of the biggest improvements I can see is due to the Quantum HDR Engine the processing is much cleaner and the transition from bright areas to darker areas is very more pleasing. To keep the comparison fair, I applied the same settings in both of the software. As for the video, well, sadly, it's not as impressive, at least in terms of advancements in image quality, and while it can do 8-bit 4K at 30 frames per second, it's no longer ahead of the pack in that regard, like the Panasonic Lumix GH5 is with its 400Mbps 10-bit codec and 60-fps 4K.In this video I will compare the key differences in the results of the same image edited in Aurora HDR 2019 vs Aurora HDR 2018. Interestingly, the a7 III manages to do an excellent job at both low and high ISOs, the latter of which can go as high as 51,200 non-boosted, which, granted, adds a lot of noise, but noise reduction helps with that. It has excellent dynamic range, low-light performance, and high-speed performance, and the full-frame sensors make the images look absolutely stunning. The Sony Alpha a7 III is a camera with so much tech that it might as well be three different cameras. While it usually goes for a whopping $2,200, Best Buy had brought it down to $1,900, and while that relatively doesn't seem like much, you could always spend the $300 savings on a new lens. Of course, many folks may not realize that Best Buy has some fantastic deals on high-end photography gear, such as this Sony Alpha a7 III mirrorless camera. There are a lot of great Best Buy Black Friday deals going on right now, and whether you're looking for TVs, laptops, or even headphones, there's a little something for everybody. As Ratcliff puts it, “Aurora HDR is now the best-in-class software for all users, for all computers - except for those weird Linux people.” Aurora HDR 2018 brings many new features, a completely new user interface, and boasts impressive speed improvements. As promised, the application will be released simultaneously for both macOS and Windows this September. Update August 16, 2017: Macphun has released details on the full version of Aurora HDR 2018 in the rather silly video below with Trey Ratcliff. ![]() For now, the back catalog of Macphun’s other apps will remain MacOS-only. “Our plan is to be a cross-platform software company going forward and we are starting with Luminar and Aurora HDR,” La Rue said. We have new versions of these products already in the pipeline for the Fall of 2017 that will launch simultaneously on Mac and Windows, La Rue said. Going forward, both versions will be developed simultaneously. While those eager to test drive Luminar and Aurora HDR on Windows will get their chance with the beta in July, the full versions won’t be released until this fall, alongside new versions of the MacOS counterparts. Luminar also took home the coveted 2017 Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) award for Best Imaging Software. ![]() Windows users may not have heard of Macphun yet, but the company’s apps have won numerous awards, including Apple’s “Editor’s Choice” recognition in the Mac App store for five years running. That application has also received significant updates since our hands-on test. We also spent some time with a beta version of Luminar in November 2016, which we called a “breath of fresh air” in the world of photo editing. ![]() Macphun Luminar takes complexity out of photo editing, but retains the power Macphun brings AI tech to photo editing with Luminar Neptune ![]()
