In addition to the recent release of PhotoLab 7 DxO has also announced that of FilmPack 7, the app whose purpose has historically been to recreate the appearance of various brands of film, both those that have been discontinued and those still on the market. I'm a current user of FilmPack 6 and will almost certainly eventually upgrade to the new version if the price is right. I deliberately put in this hedge regarding price because there are unfortunately not that many new features in version 7 compared to those that came with version 6. Those that are included can be summarized fairly quickly:
- Luminosity masks to provide greater control when editing within the app;
- Time Machine has been updated with 22 new images generating 26 new presets;
- Five new film simulations and 20 new digital renderings.
I believe this is the first time digital renderings have been included in the simulations, an indication that the app is moving away from its original purpose of recreating analog looks. This was doubtlessly necessary since by now FilmPack has a fairly full roster of nearly every film ever manufactured.
FilmPack 7 is available for download for $139, or $79 for the upgrade.
