Need to remove the background from a photo but don’t want to spend time manually selecting the subject? With Zoner Studio’s AI-powered tools, you can do it in just a few clicks. AI automatically detects the main subject and removes the background for you.

A wide-angle lens gives you a beautiful shot with great depth but those distant mountains turn into tiny bumps on the horizon. The solution is a technique called focal length blending—combining two or more photos taken at different focal lengths into a single image that looks natural, even though it couldn’t be captured in a single frame. In this article, I’ll show you how to take the photos, where to place the transition, and how to avoid the most common blending mistakes.

Yellowed or grayish teeth can unnecessarily distract from a portrait. You don’t have to manually search for the right settings to brighten and whiten them. Zoner Studio offers a special preset that automatically sets the local adjustment settings for you.

Your photo includes too much of its surroundings, the main subject is centered, or there are distracting objects around the edges of the frame. Often, a single adjustment is all it takes to make a photo look much better. See how you can crop your photos in Zoner Studio to improve them in just one minute.  

In this article, I show you how to shoot a focus stacking sequence and merge the images using Zoner Studio.  

Sometimes one photo isn’t enough. Batch Operations in Zoner Studio allows you to combine multiple shots into a single image, whether it’s a panorama, focus stack, exposure bracketing, long exposure, animation, or removing moving objects.   

Anyone who shoots panoramas, uses exposure bracketing, focus stacking, time-lapse photography, or burst mode will appreciate Autostack. Zoner Studio recognizes similar photos, groups them together, and if needed, merges them into a single image. 

Can’t find the photo you’re looking for? Well, that’s a thing of the past. Zoner Studio’s advanced search lets you search using almost any parameter you can think of. You can also use the new search feature for filtering, statistics, and a variety of other tasks.  

A dark photo with lost details, blocked shadows, and flat-looking tones—most photographers have been there. The shot itself might be great, but the image simply looks too dark. The good news? Brightening a photo in Zoner Studio only takes a moment. Here's how to adjust the exposure and bring back hidden details.

With just a few adjustments in the Develop module, the distracting object disappears from your photo. Most often, you’ll only need the Healing Brush or the Clone Stamp. Each of these tools is suited for slightly different types of retouching. In this guide, we’ll show you when to use each one and how to work with them.
