Exposure X7
Exposure X7 is the new and enhanced version of the photo editor and organizer, bringing powerful new capabilities. Photographers across all genres will find Exposure X7 to be the only application they need to create stunning images and quickly and intuitively manage their workflow.
Bundle Package
The bundle includes two additional applications to expand creative possibilities: Blow Up 3, which is designed for enlarging images while maintaining maximum quality, and Snap Art 4, which transforms your photos into exquisite handmade paintings.
Creativity
Turn your digital images into expressive works of art using the rich creative tools of the Exposure X Bundle. Hundreds of carefully selected styles add a human touch to your work. Personalize these looks using robust editing tools and natural media effects like oil paint and watercolor.
Simplicity
Experience a simpler, smarter way to work. The Exposure X Bundle streamlines your workflow so you spend your time making creative decisions rather than mastering complex software. You won’t encounter complications like catalogs or imports. Switching between edits in Exposure and using natural media and image enlargement tools is easy.
Flexibility
Work the way you want—Exposure X Bundle adapts to your needs. It has the tools necessary for professional and standalone photo editing. It also works perfectly as a series of plugins for Lightroom or Photoshop. Edit RAW files nondestructively and enjoy powerful organizational tools, a customizable user interface, and speed.
User Interface
The user interface has improved aesthetics and optimized navigation. In Exposure X, you can immediately see the potential result of applying presets, and you have the option to view presets in text format. Presets are again categorized, and you can create your own. Retina display support is included. New textures have been added to Exposure X, along with more flexible settings for borders, dust and scratches. Effects and lighting effects are grouped. The Randomize tool allows for random selection of various results, providing a convenient way to achieve unique outcomes.
Preset Group
Manage preset settings with groups of related sliders, as well as texture overlays. Preset groups allow for quick exploration of possible options without fiddling with individual sliders. Hover your mouse pointer over a preset— the thumbnail updates to show you how it will look on the photo. Simply run your cursor over the list of presets to quickly explore them visually. Additionally, with each preset, you can use a variety of control elements: tone, curves, focus, grain, vignette, and more.
Texture Overlay
In Exposure X, you can add a wide range of beautiful, realistic effects imitating “dirt,” matte emulsion, light leaks, scratches, dust, and old film.
Alien Skin Snap Art
Alien Skin Snap Art is a graphic editor that turns your photos into drawings with pencil, pastel, charcoal, or paintings with oil or watercolor, among others. The program can work as a plugin for Adobe Photoshop or in standalone mode. Snap Art 4 offers over 200 presets in 12 main styles. When creating a drawing, Snap Art considers the contours of objects in the original photo, ensuring natural brush strokes and lines. In each preset, you can adjust various effect parameters, as well as image tone, lighting, vignetting, and the type of canvas the effect should be applied to. Additionally, you can create and save your own effects as custom settings. View the original image and the processed results in real-time in various split modes.

Alien Skin Blow Up
Alien Skin Blow Up is a plugin designed for enlarging images while preserving maximum quality. Unlike other enlargement solutions, Blow Up can scale images up to 3600% (six times in each dimension) without introducing artifacts such as combing, halos, or streaks. Blow Up can work in CMYK, RGB, Lab, Grayscale, and Duotone modes, handle files with multiple layers (without needing to flatten them), and work with 16- and 32-bit images, including RAW and HDR. Another feature of the plugin is saving the new image as a separate file, leaving the original image untouched.
