Despite its monochromatic visuals, the app actually preserves the original image color data. Protection sliders prevent targeted controls from affecting unintended areas of the image in a way that doesn’t involve choosing multiple mask areas.

Micro structures bring out very small texture details in your images. Vintage effects with your choice or frames.Ĭlarity and structure modules let you improve focus and conquer lens blur without oversharpening or generating noise in the frame. Point and shooters who know little about photographic technicalities except what they like to see, can easily use it to enhance their images.įor more advanced users however, there’s power and flexibility in being able to target layers for discrete effects at variable opacities, employ and combine smart controls like adaptive exposure and smart contrast, and use the app’s gradient mask in combination with assorted controls. What I like about Tonality, and Macphun’s suite generally, is that it appeals to a broad range of users regardless of skill level. The app aims to give average users and enthusiasts the tools to make subtle but beautiful wide-ranging tones in black and white as easy as it is to desaturate an image in Photoshop (and with far superior results).

For example, JixiPix’s Dramatic Black & White and Nik Silver Efex Pro are, like Tonality, dual desktop apps and plug-ins to Photoshop, and OnOne Software’s Perfect Black & White is part of the Perfect Photo Suite 8.5.
