(I'd ignore that until you are comfortable using it.) The boxes at the top of the left panel filter the effects that are listed in the panel, so ignore them initially. Changing to "Expert" in the right panel you can add filters from the list at the top, select them in the middle of the panel and tweak their effects at the bottom (may need scrolling down). At the bottom of the panel you can select toning options, which is the same theory of having a collection of presets to set sliders. At the top of that panel you can choose a colour filter to apply to the original (assuming it's a colour image, the same as putting a filter on the lens and using B+W film), either as a preset or use the sliders (the presets just move the sliders, e.g. Load a picture, play with the canned effects on the left side, play with the Film Type on the right side panel (which should start on the “Finalise” tab).
Oh and here's my instant guide to using B+W projects:
#Sharpen projects professional 2018 giveaways for free
(I know, also late to the party as per my other comment here) B+W Projects 4 is IMHO the best B+W conversion software out there, but even more noticeably they regularly give away the previous version for free on (so B+W Projects 3, which I actually paid for, was available for free a few days ago): So a little more trialling will be necessary. It will be this ability to "rescue" an image that is slightly out of focus that will ultimately decide a purchase or not. Normal sharpening doesn't work well if the image is not in focus, a point that Sharpen Projects says is supposed to address. Interestingly, I deliberately set sharpening to maximum in my imaging software to compare the same image developed in Projects, and Sharpen Projects pulled out more detail, but not at the expense of the usual sharpening artefacts. Again, it is a program that has a significant learning curve, and as has already been pointed out, some better user documentation would be very useful. Denoise is a different kettle of fish, and unlike many noise reduction settings, it seems to apply its effect intelligently, rather than a blanket noise reduction and doesn't seem to affect sharpness to the same effect.īased on the above experience I am giving Sharpen Projects a trial. B&W has far more presets than Nik to work from, for example, but if you don't like paying for software, then get Nik. I use Franzis' Denoise and B&W Projects 4, and whilst they have a significant learning curve compared to more simple programs, they were certainly worth the intro price I paid.
