The book emojis are a little too much. :P Thanks for these apps. You can download Photoscape on Windows 10 app store
Tony & Chelsea Northrup curious if either of these allow you to later like Photoshop does, melding pictures to say change backgrounds add or remove sections of it etc.
Tony & Chelsea Northrup hello looks like a great software but I have a question could I change the image format to a TIFF format?
Tony, I saw this video about a year and half ago and have been using Photoscape X ever since. The free version has all the editing features you need to make printable photos and it never expires. It hasn't been updated in a couple of years, but it's still very useful and way easier to use than any of the other free option. I recently upgraded to the pro version for a few extra features and as an amateur photographer, I believe this is all I will ever need.
Seems EVERYTIME I look for help "Tony & Chelsea" appear.
EVERYTIME I watch a vid, it's God-Send!
What a labor of love, imho.
Utmost thanks & blessings!
Just have to send a HUGE thank you for this video and many others. As a hobbyist landscape/street photographer this is exactly what i needed. Great instruction, to the point and easy to understand. Also if you guys are ever in need of a driver/ tour guide for the central ca coast area let me know. I would be happy to tag along just to learn and pick up whatever tips i could.
Tony, thank you so much! For weeks I had fumbled around unsuccessfully with every imaginable tool to make a wire disappear. PhotoscapeX + RawTherapee were perfect. The wire "healed" out quickly and easily. Plus I added some interest to the blurred background. So easy and quick.
Many thanks Tony! I've been using the old version of Photoscape for a couple of years now, and I was not aware of the "X" upgrade. You've saved me from the dark abyss of Adobe subscriptions!
Thank you so much for this. I was feeling bummed because I just bought my first DSLR a couple of weeks ago and am trying to learn. I was interested in learning RAW photo editing, but I didn't want to invest in the adobe software subscriptions as of yet with such a big recent purchase and all. Perfect, I downloaded one and it is very nice. I will have to learn it, but it is WAY better than the basic windows photos tools. LOL
Hey Tony and Chelsea, thank you for the excellent demonstration of Photoscape X. As a budding new photographer working on a tight budget, this software has been a real eye-opener-it's improved my photos immediately and makes me want to go out and take lots more.
Love your channel, it's never patronising and always informative and fun.
Keep up the great work!
I made my start in rawtherapee and it actually taught me a lot about the way raw processors work and actually allows me to be more familiar with the more complex functions in lightroom.
Stunning ! Magnificent presentation. That was superbly done.
Just want to say a huge thanks to Tony and Chelsea for these great videos. Learning a lot from you - fantastic tips. Thanks again :)
This is literally the best channel on TH-cam. Thank you both VERY MUCH.
Tony, Thank you so much for taking the time to show these! I now don't have to worry about a monthly subscription. You are the best!
thanks for helping me, the unseasoned armature, clarify editing. I've been taking pictures for a while now but was struggling to really get started. Many thanks. love your show
Thank you Tony,
I'm new to photography/picture taking
I've been wondering about and looking for a photo editor that's free. Great and very helpful info.
Tim.
Amazing what these apps can do! I've been using a bridge camera, sending photo straight to phone, then a quick Instagram edit and posted.
Just ordered a new dslr, looking forward to stepping up my game. Thanks for sharing
Mr. Tony You will be always my favorite instructor
REALLY THANK YOU
AHMED FROM KSA
Thank you Tony, a great presentation as always, it highlights the simplicity of Photoscape compared to some of the other expensive products I have. Possibly 80% of what I want to do is covered by Photoscape which has an easy learning curve. If I have photography issues you are always my first resource, thank you for the added pleasure you give my hobby.
Tony - you are the Good Samaritan of photography. I was looking for a RAW editor and not only did I get that but a helpful tutorial to boot! Thanks again for your great work
Thanks Tony. PhotoscapeX gotta be the best damn quick edit for RAW photos I've seen and used. And really, a pretty good basic editor as well. Seriously, sometimes simple really is the best. If you get your pics done well in the camera, almost everything simple can be done very easily and very quick with Photoscape X. And UI is very user friendly (and fun). Again, thank you!
Really love Photoscape! They've added some extra's as well. Thank you Tony for the excellent overview!~
Excellent tutorial. Thank you!. Although I had been using Photoscape, your tutorial showed me the real extent of possibilities.
Just stumbled across your site. Really grateful. I have been looking for a freebe for my students. Thanks so much for being so comprehensive (and doing all of my work for me)
Thank you, Tony for an excellent tutorial... really appreciate your taking the time to provide this valuable information!
Hi Tony. I bought DSLR since 2012, but always used to take photos in auto mode. But after watching your videos, this motivated me to watch all your tutorials. Because you teach in a very good, understandable way. I am about to order your book as well. Just want to thank you for nice and precise explanation for every detail you are explaining and awaking my interest again in photography!
Excellent video, as usual! I love your videos. They are always helpful, just like your "Stunning Digital Photography" book. I grab it constantly! Thanks for all that you two do to help those who want to improve their photography. Your videos are invaluable! I've learn a great deal!
Thank you for the time you took to present such detail about 2 awesome edit progs.
33 minutes of pure knowledge. If Tony was my high school teacher, I would have graduated from MIT already.😆
Thank you Tony! I've been shooting in Fine mode and using Picasa in Windows, but just got a Mac Air. Figured if I was going to switch editors I might as well shoot RAW and learn how to edit those. This demo was detailed enough to get me comfortable with the intimidating interface of so many controls. Too, you could do a "public speaking" demo! I appreciate your calm and comfortable delivery style. Not sure any amount of practice would get me there though. Thanks again!!!
Thank you so much for doing this! been looking for awhile for a good raw editor!!! Just made my day!
I'm glad to see you've settled down into a safer life of photo editing, Tony. I see you've given up the reckless driving and indoor drone flight. Good for you. Keep it up!
Tony ... Brilliant - as always .. so very useful has made me really excited about editing Raw files .. struggled with lots of other tools - Photoscape X is fantastic ... but its often about how you are shown how to use things like this .. you have it nailed sir!
Excellent tutorial. Slow and clear. Thank you so much! I am using what I learned here!
Thank you, Tony. I just downloaded photoscape x using your link. This should get me started into photo editing & then move on to getting your book to learn the pro editing softwares & how to take stunning pictures.
I keep going back and finding great videos. I've been looking for exactly this info for a couple weeks.
Hi Tony, two great programs and great to have them as extras to Photoshop (that I have been using for many years... it is my photographic friend). Amazing that such programs are free. Enjoyed Photoscape more even though I had to save editions... no big deal , just takes time and organisation. Rawtherapee is excellent but even for a Photoshop person like me I can't ever imagine using it all. However, thank you for the reviews and I am still enjoying your book. I Keep discovering stuff and rediscovering what I had forgotten. Keep up the good work. Thanks Rod
I love lightroom but the photoscape X has some great features. I certainly will be investigating it. Thanks for the demo.
Thank you Tony and Chelsea for your efforts in introducing this free app. Also thanks to Photoscape X.
I wish you a happy new year to you and your family. Thank you for your great tutorials
Tony. You're a mighty teacher. Thanks for the tutorial.
My lightroom trial just ran out, so this is perfect timing. Thanks for sharing.
Lol same here. Lightroom is nice but not worth the price.
I used RawTherapee for the past 6 months. Pretty cool, but I just bought LightRoom and love it. Outdoor photos looked great with Rawtherapee, but indoor flash stuff just didn't. Both have a white balance selector tool. I just don't like the way Rawtherapee handled the white balance.
have you ever tried www.acdsee.com/en/free-trials
Thank you Tony! I am happy to see this video. I also like the photoscape program.
I have been watching you for a while and this was the most useful (to me) video from you that I have seen.
Raw therapee seems amazing!! I am definitely giving it a try.
Thank you for telling us about these amazing tools!
I love Lone Pine peak as seen through the Mobius Arch. I've camped near there many times so as to get there for the early light.
My father just asked me what he should use to edit some of the photos he's taken over the years and is putting into a book (he's NOT computer savvy), and this is perfect. I am sending him the link. Thanks.
Thanks for the recommendation. I will start using rawtherapee now, played with it last night and it seems quite good. I've read complaint about the stability, I got the 5.1 non debut but if I see stability issue I'll switch to the debug version.
I’ve tried a lot of free apps over the years, but somehow I missed Photoscape X. There are so many out there now… I watched this video the other night, downloaded the app, and I’ve played around with it enough to say it’s the best one I’ve tried so far. Thanks for the great channel, and this helpful video.
After experimenting with APS Elements 15, PhotoScape X Pro and RawTherapee I have decided that PhotoScape X Pro worked the best for me, plenty of very useful tools. Thanks Tony for this great presentation.
Thanks for the review Tony. About RawTherapee, don't forget to activate the tool if you see a "power button" in the tool's header ;) otherwise the slider might create an entry in the history but will not update the image.
One more small tip for those tempted by this software : right click over a tool's header to expand it and collapse all the others, making things less intimidating. And you have different mean of doing color adjustments in so different tool, at some point you'll have your preferred ones.
thanks for the tips!
Thank you!! Installed both of them to play with, although Raw Therapee is definitely overkill for me at this time as I am just starting to play around with post editing.
I would also like to thank you for all of your video's, they have been a huge help with my learning curve into the photography world. I wish I had taken the time to learn my camera much earlier, but hey, better late than never.
This year's goal is to pick up some prime's and a decent zoom or two to compliment my 60d and get out there and take pictures with it instead of letting it collect dust.
Thanks for all of the videos. I am new to DSLR and have learned a lot of valuable info. Well done and a appear to be a true nice guy! Thanks.
I love how you guys explain things, and I much appreciate you not saying hum hum, like some of the other TH-cam channels out there. Rich in Pahrump, Nv
Thank god I found your video, I was a little bit overwhelmed with rawtherapee after my lightroom trial expired and I couldn't find anything except for rawtherapee, thank you for showing photoescape and explaining everything so well
Just downloaded PhotoScape. Thanks for the great tips!
Nice video. But aditionally, RawTherapee is also available on Linux which is great, even though I prefere Darktable which is also a very powerful tool.
Really helped a lot, thank you so much Tony
Hey Tony (and Chelsea), for starters I would like to thank you for all the great videos! I've learned a lot thanks to you. I have a quick question about Photoscape X: is it possible to put a watermark on your pictures with this application? Thanks in advance!
I really appreciate this video. Thanks, Tony.
Didn't know about Photoscape X! I tend to use Lightroom, but like Fotor and RawTherapee too. Going to try Photoscape it looks fun!
Hi Tony in Photoscape X Pro you can save the changes you make in a photo. Instead of going to save go to the three dots to the right click on that then you will see save project. It saves file as a .psxprj project file. I think this is a great program has tons of features and capabilities other programs do not have. I use many other programs but find this one offering a lot of unique features.. I will always use it to do neat looking graphics.
You guys are the greatest ! Thanks so much for making this video.
Glad we could help!
I was using rawtherapee and was finding myself overwhelmed. I will give photoscape a try now. Thank you for this detailed video.
Thank you very much Tony! this was so so helpful
just bought a Canon T6i and the Photoscape X fits my budget nicely - free. Thanks for the video
Thank you, VERY helpful.
Works like a charm thank you my dude!!!!
You are the best Tony thanks for sharing!
I tried Photoscape X while watching this video and it works SUPERB. Everything is intuitive, I didn't need to seek out tutorials to figure out what to do. Thanks Tony! RawTherapee is way too temperamental.
Greetings Tony. I was actually on the App Store looking for free photo editing apps and I saw Photoscape X as the first one. I looked at it but then went to TH-cam and came across your video (this one) talking about it. Thank you VERY much for showing us Photscape X, how it works, etc. It is much appreciated. You saved me a LOT of time and for that I am grateful!!! #LetsGetEditing
Thanks Tony! you are always the best!
so professional, I love it.
Awesome video Tony! Thanks a lot for the video!
I know this is an older post, but I had to say thank you for this video. I am new to photography and found this to be a great deal of help...so Thank You!!!
Thanks so much Tony. I've been looking for a free raw editor and I think Photoscape X is something I can handle. By the way, I really liked the lighthouse shot!
Your videos are really awesome .
i like your videos.
nikon d5500 is really a good camera .
Thank you
Thank you for the recommendation and the detailed tutorial. Liked and subscribed.
Tony you are a lifesaver
Now Darktable is available also for Windows and is awesome.
@@RonaldPlett interesting. I use darktable for Pentax (DNG) and Fujifilm (RAF) without problems.
@@RonaldPlett Independently of the file compatibility, which editor would you choose? I am asking because I never tried rawtherapee as I was very happy with darktable since I first tried it.
@@RonaldPlett thanks. I guess I might give it a try.
I use darktable for a Canon 6D. No problems what so ever.
@@RonaldPlett I have got a D7100 and darktable handles my NEF-raw-files just fine. It could be the base curve module or something tripping you up.
Fantastic tutorial. Thank you very much
Thank you for the great, informative video Tony, what do you think of lightzone for raw editing?
Which one is easier to use for a beginner? Lightzone or Photoscape X?
Using RawTherapee + GIMP on Linux. It's quite powerful and reads almost any RAW format. I've managed to open Pentax K-1 and Sony A6300 raws without any updates. And Pentax multiresolution images hadn't weird color shift like in Lightroom. Downsides: some years ago it had keep crashing on rendering, poor noise reduction and AFIAK limited support of X-Trans (Fuji) RAWs.
Thank you. Awesome tutorial!
I found this very helpful, I’ve been looking a good free photo editing app. Thanks.
Thanks for this. Still relevant 2 Years on. I've been using or rather trying to use Darktable for a while now as an alternative to LR. A bit overwhelming for most of my needs. This is perfect for 80% of what I do. But I have one question; does the Trial Version get updated to reflect changes in the Pro Version? If yes do you update to link or is it unnecessary? Thanks to both Chelsee and you for all your help.
I use to do just about everything in Lightroom, and occasionally Photoshop. Couldn't keep using the subscription, Thank you for the demonstration of PhotoScape X as I was really wanting to get away from Gimp for doing some of the more artistic edits that I use to do in Lightroom. Now I'm thinking that I will start with Raw Therapee for the Raw, save off a Tiff or PNG and do the artistic editing in PhotoScape X for the final picture export to JPG. Thanks for helping to decide how to finish out the Work flow.
very impressive and gives a great perspective to a whole lot of other options beyond LR and PS. BTW it would be helpful to dedicate a video session on selection of the right hardware for photo editing. I have been trying out a quite a few options o the processor and the monitor, wacom pentab etc etc but still monitor being the most critical part I am unable to zero down to the most suitable one.
Thank you Tony! I just started taking pictures RAW, and now with these editing apps I don’t have to spend money on Adobe apps.
Thanks! This helped me out a bunch! Been looking for a good editor for months! everything else is so expensive!
Thanks very much. Nice to know we have other choices other than Adobe!
I really like PhotoScape X and bought the Pro version. It's very cheap and it's an amazing app.
Windows had too many updates for me...when i woke up, coffee in hand i didnt want to be forced to do an update.. forget that! Ive tried Darktable, some of the most powerful mask tools, but not as ease of use as as Lightroom. Glad to see you do a comparison here!
many thanks Tony
Thank you for the brilliant easy tutorial. I am just getting into DSLR world and this helped me a lot. Supoer
used older version of Photoscape and like very well , may try this pro version
Awesome Teacher, Thank you.
Thanks for making this video, this was super helpful to me
I would love to see a RAWTherapee tutorial. What you need to know, want to know and optional stuff maybe. That would be great.
I'm definitely going to download the Photoscape X
