Development and Adjustment of RAW Data Files

The SILKYPIX® Developer Studio 3.0 SE utility lets you develop RAW data files.
RAW data refers to original image data recorded directly from the CCD without any image processing. RAW data contains a large amount of image information. After shooting, you can develop RAW data to create images with the exact effects that you intended. SILKYPIX® Developer Studio 3.0 SE maximizes the advantages and possibilities of RAW data.

SILKYPIX® Developer Studio 3.0 SE uses an advanced development algorithm to provide high-level, basic image processing capabilities. It lets you control problems like unnatural edges from saturated color borders, false colors in structures with intricate detail, and chromatic noise in photos taken at high sensitivity settings. This utility provides a unique combination of high resolution and extraordinary color separation performance.

Development and Adjustment of JPEG/TIFF Files

This utility converts data into a form that is close to RAW data and then re-applies the development processing. This ensures accurate color processing.*

* Since the converted data has less information than RAW data, there are some adjustment-related restrictions and some functions cannot be used. For details, refer to the manual for SILKYPIX® Developer Studio 3.0 SE.

More information

SILKYPIX® Developer Studio 3.0 SE lets you set the detailed parameters shown below. These parameters are saved in a separate file to prevent any accidental change to the original data. You can redo the processing as many times as necessary to get the results you want, without worrying about making mistakes.

SILKYPIX® Developer Studio 3.0 SE lets you correct portions of an image that you don't like, and also expand your photo expressivity by making beautiful pictures more attractive or by adding a creative touch.
