Great alternative

Easy to use and gives good results without the time it takes to work with images in Photoshop. Price is very reasonable compared to other options. Not perfect, but no photo software is. Recommended for users who want to get nice results without having to go through a difficult learning curve, but has the ability to do more as you become accustomed to it and delve into its rich feature set.

Very good and clear layout

Very good and clear layout which is self-instructive in many contexts. I mainly deal with documentary photography and studio photography and photographing people and human culture. Zoner Studio is a very affordable program that is continuously updated and improved. It has been my main photo editing program for about 6 years.

Fast and efficient

I only have about 2 minutes per photo, so I don’t spend a lot of time editing, but Zoner Studio helps me stay organized and work quickly and efficiently. It also saves me money. I shoot with average camera equipment, but I’m still able to deliver quality results to top teams.

Travel Photography: Where to Go in August

In August, we’ll once again be spending most of our time in the mountains, which offer a welcome escape from the scorching heat. We’ll also be staying solely within Europe and North America, which, thanks to their long sunny days, are ideal in August for extended trips with a camera in hand. This time, however, we’ll skip the Mediterranean.
