Nik Software Announces New Color Efex Pro 3.0

October 19, 2007: Nik Software has announced the latest upgrade to its award-winning Color Efex Pro collection of photographic filters for Adobe Photoshop and Photoshop Elements.

The new Color Efex Pro 3.0 filter collection now integrates Nik Software's patented U Point technology for precise selective editing control, includes new and updated filters offering the widest range of professional photographic enhancements and effects, and features a completely redesigned user interface.
With U Point powered Control Points, users can make selective corrections or enhancements by placing a Control Point directly on any part of an image (such as sky, skin, grass, or a building) and adjusting the level of opacity of the effect on that specific part of the image. This selective control enables users to perform enhancements in a fraction of the time needed using other software tools.

Available in three editions, the Color Efex Pro Complete Edition features over 250 distinctive effects and styles in over 50 easy-to-use filters, and includes more than 30 emulated film types. New and updated filters in Color Efex Pro 3.0 address specific needs for varying styles of photography, ranging from studio, portrait, and commercial, to fine art and nature. The suggested retail price for the Complete Edition is US$299.95; the Select Edition is US$159.95; the Standard Edition is US$99.95.

Nik Software has also announced a new powerful photo editing software bundle designed specifically for professional and advanced amateur photographers. Available directly from Nik Software, new Capture NX photo editing software from Nikon Corporation and the Nik Color Efex Pro 2.0 digital photographic filters for Capture NX can be purchased separately for US$329.95 or together for a limited time at a US$30 discount.
