- Media storage:
- Media storage can (as a storyboard) be configured to arrange the videos according to the time they were taken.
- A thumbnail is displayed for each video.
- All videos can be exported separately from each other or together as one video.
- Drag & drop option
- Copy/Paste option
- Videos can be accessed directly, via Explorer for example. This means that the insert position can be chosen at the same time.
- The video order can be changed using drag & drop.
- The video file name can be changed.
- The path or file name of several videos can be changed in one step.
- IN/OUT and the start/end point of the videos can be altered numerically.
- IN/OUT can be set for several videos in one step.
- IN/OUT can also be set relative to the video start or end.
- Colour correction:
- The histogram to visualise the distribution of colour and brightness in the image is available. Alterations can be seen very quickly during video playback.
- Comprehensive and professional colour correction
- Remove colour cast (super simple)
- Film looks (like in cinema blockbusters)
- Targeted enhancement/alteration of colour, brightness, contrast and tone
- Toning
- Tone curve
- Split toning
- Colour channels
- Fully automatic image enhancement
- Dynamic contrast
- ActionCam videos in particular are dramatically improved. They are more lively and show greater depth.
- Differences in brightness compared
- Image correction:
- Remove noise/sharpen image (much better and faster than in v1)
- Improved video stabilisation
- Can deal with fisheye video
- Video analysis is twice as fast
- Combination of stabilisation and removal of fisheye optics is possible without any loss of quality or black edges.
- All videos can be analysed in one go.
- Improved correction of CMOS sensor distortion
- Three-step wobble and jello effect removal feature.
- Even extreme jello effect can now be removed.
- Optical correction/effect:
- New camera profile for fisheye processing and for better stabilisation
- Improved fisheye removal.
- There is now an option to edit the intrinsic camera parameters.
- Video stabilisation of fisheye video without harming the fisheye optics.
- Aberrant lines can be corrected
- Works with “normal” images
- and also with fisheye images
- as well as in combination with fisheye removal.
- Correction is needed especially frequently in this case because a slanted camera often cannot be recognised in spherical optics. However, after the spherical optics have been removed, the slanted camera position often remains as a disruptive effect.
- Importing video/photo:
- A video can be divided automatically into scenes during import. This is important for better control of stabilisation and other options for correction.
- Extra import formats are available (Canopus HQ, Canopus HQX, GoPro Cineform, etc.).
- A directory with still images can also be loaded as a video sequence.
- Exporting video/photo:
- Export encoding in 8 bit and 16 bit (previously, only 8 bit was available)
- Extra export formats (e.g. Canopus HQX)
- Export properties can be selected
- The current image position can be saved as a single frame (photo snapshot).
- Effects:
- The effect parameter can be controlled using Keyframes
- Image position, rotation and scaling
- Vignette effect
- Spotlight effect
- Project management:
- Loading, saving etc.
- Templates:
- Users can make their own effect templates
- User's effects can only affect defined effect parameters using filter options
- Templates can be displayed filtered by name
- Templates are managed in a tree structure
- Can be arranged according to user preference
- Copy/Paste option
- Import/export option
- Drag & drop option
- The template last used can be cancelled or made again.
- Timeline:
- Scalable
- Can be controlled using shortcuts
- Video can be cut at the current position with just one click
- Selectable playback speed
- Switch between Trim and Edit
- Canvas:
- Scalable
- Contextual menu to control playback
- Improve real-time playback
- Shortcuts:
- Control using media buttons (found on most keyboards)
- Control using numeric keypad
- Alteration of interface according to user preference
- Batch editing
- Improved and more consistent
- Edit several videos together :
- All changes are applied to all selected videos in media storage.
- Colour correction
- Position adjustment
- Trimming
- Stabilisation
- Optical corrections
- Use of templates
- Changes to properties
- Technical :
- 16-bit colour workflow throughout
- 8k videos can be edited
- Optimised utilisation of multi-core systems
- Displays more details on codecs and format used
