Intelligently Removing Unwanted Objects from Photos
Strangers in the background, signs, litter—all of these can ruin a good shot and annoy you, the photographer. No matter how hard you try to keep them out of your shots, eventually you will be forced to retouch them away on a computer... learn moreDownload PDF
Getting Smiles with the Deform Tool
We all know the svelte stomachs and glowing smiles in many photos don’t necessarily match reality. But did you know that with the Deform Tool in Zoner Photo Studio 14, you too can make this kind of magic?... learn moreDownload PDF
Noise Reduction
Ever since the start of digital photography, beating noise has been a constant struggle—and it’s that is by no means over. Pictures with too much noise are irreversibly damaged and tend to end up on the cutting-room floor. Zoner Photo Studio 14 brings a new weapon to use in the war against noise and save your valuable pictures... learn moreDownload PDF
Making Magic with Tone Mapping
Tone mapping is a new function in Zoner Photo Studio 14 that lets you do some quite fantastic things with a picture’s contrast and tinting. With the help of tone mapping, you can easily “pull out” and emphasize otherwise hidden details in an image... learn moreDownload PDF

3D—it’s not just for the movies anymore. Go 3D on your own computer! Create your very own 3D pictures. It’s as simple as magic—no wonder we call it a wizard. All you need is an ordinary digital camera to take the source pictures... learn moreDownload PDF

Bringing One Picture Into Another
You may have at some point felt the urge to create a collage on your computer, or otherwise fill up one picture with one or more other pictures.

You can find out how in the paragraphs below... learn moreDownload PDF
Organize Your Photo Collection
One of the great advantages of digital photography is that your costs per shot are zero—you can keep shooting as long as you have the time, interest, and card space. But this also makes archiving pictures and managing your photo collection more demanding than ever... learn moreDownload PDF
Making Calendars in Zoner Photo Studio
Even if we don’t count the major gift-giving seasons, there are many times in a year where you need a calendar to fit certain aesthetic and functional demands, and nothing commerically available meets that need... learn moreDownload PDF
Developing from RAW
Many photographers idolize RAW, and many more take it less religiously but still use it as a matter of course. Then there are those who avoid it completely. If you do shoot to RAW, you need a way to get your pictures out of RAW into a format that can be used by anyone... learn moreDownload PDF
Adding Text to a Picture
The ability to add text to a picture may sound like just a toy, but that really isn’t so. Anyone working with photographs or other pictures will encounter this need from time to time. For example: sometimes you need to sign a picture, but it doesn’t need to be a drawn signature. It’s nice to have an easy way to do that... learn moreDownload PDF
Maximize Your RAW Support
If you shoot to RAW, but the kind of RAW in your camera is not supported by Zoner Photo Studio directly, the solution is simple: install Adobe DNG Converter... learn moreDownload PDF
Fixing Photos’ Times And Dates
Digital photographs’ “picture-taken” time and date, stored in their EXIF data, are very important, not just because you can use them to tell when a picture was taken, but also because they make it easier to organize your photo archive. They can even help for some special purposes like marking pictures’ GPS location... learn moreDownload PDF
Plug-ins: Supercharge Your Zoner Photo Studio
Zoner Photo Studio offers many tools for editing pictures, but sometimes you need a tool it doesn’t have. That’s where plug-ins shine. Plug-ins are modules that expand the program’s abilities to include more ways to edit pictures. Let’s take a look at how to work with plug-ins... learn moreDownload PDF
Serious Fun with the Morphing Mesh
Like other programs’ similar tools, the Morphing Mesh in Zoner Photo Studio is good for making runway models’ impossible figures even more impossible, as you may know. You probably aren’t working with such pictures, but the Morphing Mesh can still come in handy for you as well. Let’s take a look at improving a smile on a photograph using this tool... learn moreDownload PDF
Photo Nametags for Your Gifts
Make gift giving at group occasions like school outings, holidays, family gatherings, birthdays, and children’s parties easier by tagging gifts with not just names, but also pictures of their recipients. Pre-readers will be especially happy that they, too, can help hand out gifts, or pick up their own... learn moreDownload PDF
Changing Selected Colors in a Picture
Sometimes you need to fine-tune the colors of all things of one particular color in a picture without unwanted tinting of the rest of the picture. This could be the color of a car, clothing, or perhaps a flower. There’s an easy way to do it in Zoner Photo Studio: the Shift Colors window... learn moreDownload PDF
Framing a Picture
Paper photographs are much less common than in the past—today, most photos get viewed on a screen. They are still, however, the best-looking way to present your work. And a simple frame can make them look even better... learn moreDownload PDF
Be on the Move
Ever take shots of a superb ski jump and wish you could freeze-frame that like the pros? Well, don’t envy them anymore—be them... learn moreDownload PDF
Retouching pictures
Retouching has always been among the more complex edits—one that not everyone was willing to try. But new technologies are making retouching an easy job that almost anyone can do... learn moreDownload PDF
Working with Selections
Have you ever been working on a picture and wanted to do something to just the sky, or make the picture black-and-white except for just one thing? But that kind of magic is only for the pros, right? Wrong. It’s easy and you can do it too, thanks to selections... learn moreDownload PDF
Improving Exposure with Histogram Curves
The most basic edit for any photograph should be exposure correction. There are any ways to do this job. One of the most advanced of ways is via the Curves window, which we’ll take a look at here... learn moreDownload PDF
Improving Exposure by Editing Levels
Most digital photos need at least a couple of adjustments before publishing: they need brightening and increased contrast. The Levels window is an ideal tool for this job. Let’s take a look at how to do the work... learn moreDownload PDF
On the Photo Trail, GPS Style
Not many GPS devices have built-in cameras yet, but these devices still make great companions for photo shoots in town and country. Not only will a GPS device lead you to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, it will also lead you to the best vantage point for photographing the rainbow... and track the route you took to get there as well... learn moreDownload PDF
Creating Black-and-white Pictures
In the days of film photography, it was much more common to work with black-andwhite photos (also called grayscale) than it is today. There were two reasons for this. One, black-and-white processing was simpler, so it had the same advantage that digital does today: it could be do-it-yourself. Two, black-and-white film was cheaper than color film... learn moreDownload PDF
Uploading Pictures to Picasa Web Albums
Zoner Photo Studio can upload pictures to Facebook, Flickr, and Picasa Web Albums. Here we’ll look at the last of these three... learn moreDownload PDF
Leveling Tilted Skies

Removing Moving Objects
Zoner Photo Studio 13 brings to the series an attractive way to remove moving objects from a picture. At first it may just seem like a toy, but really it can be much more than that—for example, for making your picture of Notre Dame Cathedral be about Notre Dame, and not about 86 people walking around in front of Notre Dame... learn moreDownload PDF
Resizing Photos
Sooner or later even the most casual photographer needs to resize a picture. Maybe to reduce the size before e-mailing, maybe before uploading it as a profile picture on, say, Facebook. Zoner Photo Studio offers two tools for this job. In this article, we’ll examine them both... learn moreDownload PDF
Cropping pictures
Surely it’s happened to you too: you took a basically good picture, but there was more empty space around the edges than you wanted. In these situations, the simplest solution is to take out the scissors—well, the crop tool—and cut away the excess... learn moreDownload PDF
