Discover your free copy of ON1 EFFECTS 2019
This amazing photo and effects editor works both as a standalone program or a plug-in
If you’ve ever looked at a photo and wondered what you can do to bring it to life, ON1 Effects 2019 has the answer – in fact it has hundreds of them in its library of preset photo effects, with inspirational looks for landscapes, people, urban shots, architecture and more. You choose a look, click a button and it’s applied right there.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg, though, because you can modify each of these preset effects and even create your own. Each preset is built using one or more of ON1 Effects 2019’s 27 powerful filters.
1 Masks and local adjustments
You can apply ON1 Effects 2019 filters globally across the whole image if you want to, but you can also use its masking tools (including a masking brush and the gradient mask tool used here) to apply effects and adjustments to parts of the image only.
2 Cropping and rotation
Is your image slightly skewed? What if it’s the wrong size? ON1 Effects 2019 isn’t just an effects tool – it also offers cropping and rotation tools in the same window. You can specify the image’s aspect ratio when you crop, and ‘Export’ with different pixel dimensions and even a watermark.
3 Object removal and retouching
ON1 Effects 2019 can remove unwanted objects from your pictures automatically – you brush over the offending object, the software erases it using surrounding details and textures. It can remove small objects like sensor spots or larger ones like tourists at landmarks! You can mix and match filters in any combination, and each filter comes with its own in-depth adjustments.
To use ON1 Effects 2019 as a standalone program, launch it and drag any photo onto its window. You can save over the original photo or (recommended) work on a copy.
You can also launch ON1 Effects 2019 as a plug-in, and have your edited photo returned to Photoshop, Lightroom Classic CC or Photoshop Elements 14 or later for saving or further editing.
ON1 Effects is just one part of ON1’s complete photo editor and organiser, ON1 Photo RAW.
