Corel AfterShot Pro is not the best-known photo editing application, but it is an interesting one that supports RAW files. Beginners like me would appreciate it, and expert photographers would benefit as well. Color correcting tools are available, as well as the ability to create and edit catalogs.
See the news below for a free download of Corel AfterShot’s professional edition. There are other links available, including a repack, all of which are free. After launching, you can alter the white balance, exposure, contrast, saturation, color temperature, sharpness, and illumination. Activation is required—they don’t give things out for free, but don’t worry, everything is contained in the archive—I’m referring to a key or crack. You also get cropping, horizon leveling, lens correction, digital noise removal, and other features.
Changes are quickly reflected in the shot and histogram, giving you a clear direction to travel. The original file remains unchanged, allowing you to experiment with the parameters. Selective editing with layers lets you change specific portions of a frame without applying effects to the entire image.
Corel AfterShot is an excellent solution for individuals with large photo collections who need to organize them efficiently. Photos can be graded, keyworded, tagged, and arranged into folders. A built-in file explorer makes searching for photographs simple.
Various formats are supported, including RAW and NEF, as well as RW2 and CR2; a complete list is provided on the author’s page. The editor accepts standard JPG and TIFF files and supports batch processing, allowing you to apply the same adjustments to multiple photographs at once.
Pros:
- Non-destructive photo editing, compatible with popular RAW formats.
- Selective repair of individual areas
- A catalog that includes ratings, tags, and keywords
