December 31, 2009: Bibble Labs has released the latest version of its photographic workflow application for Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems.
Bibble 5 Pro includes a totally new, completely multi-threaded image processing engine that offers faster processing speeds. Efficient enough to be usable on netbooks and older computers, yet powerful enough to take full advantage of 4, 8, 16 or even more CPUs, Bibble 5 Pro is designed to use all the computing power available to it. The Selective Editing framework allows image editing tools to operate on the complete image or a limited portion of an image and all adjustments are fully integrated into a totally non-destructive workflow.
Bibble Labs continues to offer the industry’s only RAW-level plug-in API, which allows third-party developers to write image editing tools that can access decoded RAW files, TIFFs and JPEGs directly within the image editing pipeline. Every plug-in built for Bibble 5 is also open to the full power of Selective Editing, adjustment presets, edit history and all of Bibble 5 Pro’s other workflow advantages.
Asset management is also improved and, when importing images into catalogs Bibble 5 can summarise information to make searches faster and easier. Multiple Catalogs can be open at once, while browsing or searching across all open catalogs. Bibble 5 Pro includes RAW support for the Canon 7D, S90 and G11, Nikon D3s, and D5000, Pentax K-x, Sony’s a850 and a550 and many others.
Bibble 5 Pro is available immediately for Windows, Mac, and Linux computers for US $199.95 from http://newsletters.bibblelabs.com/lt.php?id=bBoMBlYKUVJJBwMaVQcDB1U%3D.
