Press Release Summary:

Press Release Body: April, 2008 - AKVIS LLC presents version 6.0 of AKVIS
Noise Buster for Windows and Macintosh with a new improved algorithm of noise
suppression. The parameters have been changed accordingly. New Microdetail parameter
has been added, it reveals small detail without bringing back the suppressed noise.
Unsharp Mask Option added; it regulates the sharpness of the objects\' edges. The
Macintosh-version is now compatible with Photoshop Elements v.6. Registered users
can upgrade the software for free.

Whether you get digital images using a digital camera or a scanner, you may often
notice the so-called "noise". It can be seen as grains that compromise the
smoothness of the photo or random red and blue pixels spoiling the color accuracy of
the snap-shot. Such images can be improved with noise removal software. The idea is
to reach balance between removing noise and keeping fine details on a picture.

AKVIS Noise Buster reduces both luminance and color noise on digital images
without spoiling other aspects of the photo. A histogram displaying noise level and
noise components (color and luminance noise) of the loaded image helps you to decide
what parameters should be tuned.
Separate setting areas for luminance and color noise allow you to deal with each
kind of noise in the most efficient way.

Version 6.0 of AKVIS Noise Buster offers an advanced algorithm of noise
removal. The efficient algorithm allows suppressing visible noise without blurring
the edges of objects. Your photos stay sharp and crisp, while the unwanted artefacts
disappear.

The parameters have been changed accordingly. A new Microdetail parameter has been
added, it reveals small detail without bringing back the suppressed noise. Unsharp
Mask Option added; it will replace the Sharpen Edge parameter. The way it works is
different from its forerunner but the function is the same - to regulate the
sharpness of the objects\' edges.
The Macintosh-version is now compatible with Photoshop Elements v.6.

The automatic noise filtering (Auto Filtering preset) has become more precise. When
it is selected, the program analyses the image and picks up the best settings on its
own. If you are not quite satisfied with the result, you can adjust the settings.

The program tips help you to achieve the best result. Hovering your mouse over a
parameter makes the application display a hint about this setting.

Version 6.0 is available as a standalone application and as a plugin.
The plug-in version of Noise Buster offers batch mode that allows improving a series
of photos automatically.
Batch processing is time saving when you have to correct a number of photos taken
with the same camera settings in similar circumstances.
AKVIS Noise Buster plug-in is compatible with Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements,
Corel Photo-Paint, Painter and Paint Shop pro, Ulead Photo-Impact, etc.
