Colorful Mexico

Mexico has a varied reputation among travelers. On one hand, we picture monumental pyramids and a turquoise-blue coast. On the other hand, some travelers only picture drug cartels and immense poverty. This may make a photographer wonder if this country is at all worth visiting. My response is absolutely Yes. Let me elaborate on why I think so.

Tips for Urbex-Style Portraits

Urbex, or Urban Exploration photography, is a very attractive genre, and not only for photographers. These urban settings present interesting and unique images. It is also a perfect opportunity for experimenting with portraits. What does Urbex photography entail? It can be exciting and sometimes a bit dangerous. It’s sure to give you an adrenaline rush. So be careful and watch every step you take.

An Eye on Composition – Part I

Composition is the very foundation of photography. It helps us to judge whether a photo is good or not. And it also reveals whether you’re a good photographer or not. Some people are born with a talent for composition. The rest of us have to learn it. Start taking composition seriously—for example by reading the tips in today’s article. Better pictures will be your reward.

Inspiration After the Rain

During rainfall, you need to protect yourself and your camera, but after the rain, the situation is much simpler. And meanwhile, the pictures that you can take in the post-rain atmosphere are beautiful. Even if a look out the window leaves you with zero desire to head out taking photos, don’t hesitate. Go and find the pictures that will make it all worthwhile.

Metadata Tokens

Explaining the terms metadata and tokens to someone who’s never encountered them can be tricky. The Zoner Photo Studio X Fall 2022 Update simplifies working with metadata. You may have previously encountered format strings, a function formerly found in many locations in ZPS X. Format strings were complicated codes that we have now fit into clear cells, called tokens, to make working with them more intuitive. Most importantly, you don’t have to be a computer programmer to set them up.

Browser Mode in Develop

No more clicking back and forth between the Manager and Develop modules! We have a few improvements to Zoner Photo Studio X as part of the Fall 2022 Update that will make it easier to navigate and load not only individual photographs, but also batch selections.

Customized Folder Settings

Finally! You can now set up each folder exactly how you want. Set the folder with family photos to display as thumbnails and the folder with work photos to show as a list. As of the Fall 2022 Update, you have the option to customize your folder settings to fit your needs. We’ll show you how it’s done.

Native Support for RAW Formats in ZPS X

There are many advantages to working with RAW photos. RAW image formats are essential for high-quality output. The main advantage is that the file contains a large amount of image data for colors and dynamics range, so it can handle bolder photo editing. However, this also means certain challenges for photo editing software. With the Fall 2022 Update, ZPS X brings its own color interface that runs in the program’s background delivering true-to-life colors to your photographs.

Fall 2022 Update: Native RAW support, customized settings, Full View, and other new features

In our fall update, we focused more on the program’s interior, but we didn’t neglect visuals either. We hope you appreciate the improvements to the user experience, which will make your photo editing more enjoyable. Read to see what new features you can find in the program.
