Ultimate precision
Photographers need tools that let them harmonize the fine details.
Nik Silver Efex uses U Point technology, ingenious selection tools that let you make precise, intelligent local adjustments.
And in version 7, selections become even more powerful with ellipses, polygons, and luminosity masks.
Take control over contrast, structure, brightness, shadows, midtones, highlights, and more.
This is for those who love the emotional impact, depth, and potency that black and white photos can have. And Silver Efex does this better than any program I’ve ever seen.
