InPixio Photo Focus

Whether you want to remove blur from a favorite picture that was not taken with the optimal camera settings, apply vignette effect to draw the viewer's eye on an important part of the photo, or manipulate images in a similar manner with other types of tools, you can try InPixio Photo Focus before turning to professional help.

It's an incredibly easy-to-use graphic editing program whose features focus on cropping, color and lighting adjustments, sharpness, creative blur, and vignetting. It also supports presets, giving you the possibility to put together favorite configurations and later import them into projects to skip the hassle of going through the same options.

As far as supported file types are concerned, you can open JPG, PNG, GIF and other types of graphic files, including RAW photos from digital cameras. However, options are limited when it comes to exporting modified files: JPEG, JPEG XR, PNG and TIFF only.

Several photos are available as samples with tutorials. All main options are neatly organized on the left side of the main window, next to the loaded image, reflecting modifications in real time. For instance, you can crop the pic using a preset or custom size, as well as tweak the highlights, temperature, saturation, clarity, shadows, hue, brightness and contrast levels.

When it comes to sharpness, all you have to do is set the amount and radius. Linear or radiant blur can be applied to shift the viewer's attention to an important part of an image. Otherwise, you can set blur in custom mode using a paint brush and eraser.

Another way to put emphasis on the central part of the image is by adding a vignette, an effect that applies shadows or highlights to the corners of the photo. You can set the amount, midpoint and feather.

Preferred configurations that you plan on using in future image editing projects can be saved as presets. What's more, besides saving a photo to file, you can export multiple pictures in bulk, provided that you want to apply the same configuration to all.

Taking everything into account, InPixio Photo Focus proves to be an intuitive graphic editing application that comes packed with a lot of handy options for tweaking photographs like a pro.
