Svenske Proxel korrigerer fortegning
Rett før Photokina fikk vi melding om tyske Nurizon Acolens, som bl.a. korrigerer optiske feilbrytninger. Omtrent samtidig kom det melding om et svensk firma, Proxel Software, som med sin Photoshop Plug-in "Proxel Lens Corrector" gjør tilnærmet det samme. Dessverre forsvant meldingen i haugen av andre pressemeldinger den dagen. På samme måte som Acolens er programmet selvkalibrerende, dvs. at man først korrigerer ett bilde tatt med det aktuelle objektivet, deretter kan alle bilder tatt med samme objektiv korrigeres for optisk linjefortegning.
Pressemelding fra Proxel Software HB:
Proxel Lens Corrector 1.0 Released
Proxel Software HB has released the groundbreaking software toolkit Proxel Lens Corrector. The toolkit consists of two tools. The first tool uses calibration photos to analyze the distortion of the lens. The second tool is a Photoshop plugin that can be used to remove distortion from all your pictures, using the result from the analysis.
The most outstanding feature of this toolkit is that you can, with high accuracy, easily measure and correct any lens you own. You can do this regardless of kind of lens, e.g. it can be a third party wide angle converter used on your P&S camera. There does not exist any competing affordable tool that can accomplish this and there does not exist any tool (regardless of cost) that can do it so easily.
Another outstanding feature of the tool is the clever canvas rescaling feature. This feature both makes it very fast and comfortable to work with the tool and it also ensures optimal quality. The fully automatic choice of optimal canvas size makes it much faster to work with the tool. The rescaling of the canvas, rather than the picture, ensures optimal quality in the important central parts of the picture. The real time preview shows you how the resulting image will look and you can also directly see the resulting size of the final image.
The tool is very useful for P&S cameras as the zoom lenses on those cameras always have distortion, mostly visible in the wide angle setting. But all zoom lenses, even the expensive ones for DSLR cameras, have distortion. We believe this to be a valuable tool for anyone interested in optimal image quality.
Apart from correcting distortion in lenses, the tool can also be used for getting rectilinear pictures from your fisheye lenses. Thus you can buy a much cheaper and smaller lens and still get outstanding results. Using a corrected fisheye you can even get a rectilinear lens with wider view than is possible to purchase.
The Lens Corrector Photoshop plugin can take both 8 and 16 bit color depth images, so it is suitable for your digital camera photos, both for JPEG but also for your high quality RAW work flow. The plugin is tested on Photoshop 6, 7, CS, CS2 and Elements 4.
Proxel Software HB is a Swedish company that earlier has made consultancy programming work but now is dedicated to make, sell and maintain high quality software. The software can be found at the Proxel web site www.proxel.se.
Version 1.0.2 of Lens Corrector (2006-09-11)
This versions fixes a bug where it was not possible to use 16 bit color depth mode in the demo of the Lens Corrector plugin.
Version 1.0.3 of Lens Corrector (2006-09-26)
This release contains two small changes. We have now implemented color management for the preview in the Lens Corrector PS plugin. We have also added an accuracy field in the Lens Analyser.
