These weeks are being key for several applications that we find in the Mac App Store and it is that seeing the arrival of the new MacBook Pro with the Touch Bar have the batteries to use this new component on Macs and in the case of Luminar it has long been updated to support this OLED bar.
There are several details that make the difference between a photo editing application but above all we are very clear that MacPhun creates very practical applications with a really worked and careful design and interface. In this case Luminar offers us a good handful of photo editing tools and this is something that many users want when they buy an application of this type.
This application is not for all users since its price of 50 euros in the Mac App store and This is something that can stop the purchase of those users who are not dedicated in a professional way when using these types of applications. In any case now it has a discount in the price as we can see in the MacPhun website and on the other hand we must clarify that we are facing a really powerful photo editor with which editing is easy and intuitive for those who do not usually do these jobs and for those who do them daily.
In Luminar we find a series of image correction tools, creative filters, layers and masks and extensive file import or export capabilities, up to a total of more than 300 robust and powerful editing tools. All with the possibility of being added as a plugin in Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, Aperture or Photoshop Elements.
Our opinion without being experts in the field of photo editing is that the work done by MacPhun developers with this software is truly spectacular, It adds the ability to edit by layers and it has too many tools for a medium / low use such as mine, but surely the professionals appreciate each one of them. In short, it is an application that is truly capable of adapting to the skills and needs of any type of photographer, but if you are a professional this is undoubtedly an option to consider.
If we compare the price of Macphun programs in photo editing, with similar programs from other companies, they have no color, these Macphun programs are at the height of many more people. I cannot have Lightroom and its equivalent of Adobe, Luminar and Aurora can.
