Importing can be stressful and confusing for amateur photographers who have little time to catalogue every single picture, lack the technical know how or simply just want to store the pictures they like.Įxposure X has been given the ability to stack effects – kind of like how layers works – which is great news. One main feature that Exposure differs from similar programs is that there's no need to import pictures before working on them. There are various aspects that Alien Skin have introduced to make it as painless as possible. For the photographer who uses the function a lot, a dedicated platform to work in is a blessing and should make working on pictures much easier. The primary function of Exposure is to emulate previous film types and vintage photographic processes.
Fear not, though, should you still prefer to use Exposure as a plug in then you can and it's still located in the same place under the Filters tab on Photoshop CC and with Lightroom you need to go to Photo>Edit In and select Exposure X.Ĭreating a standalone work space for Alien Skin Exposure X opens up a whole new world of opportunity for photographers who love a taste of the past. The biggest new feature is that Alien Skin Exposure X now has standalone capability, whereas previous versions were only Photoshop and Lightroom plug ins. We surmise that the rebranding of the version is down to the overhaul that Exposure has had for this installment. One would assume that means that this is the tenth version, but it has come directly after version 7.
Traditionally Alien Skin have named their Exposure program sequentially, so it's interesting to note that they've done away with tradition and replaced it with an X. Alien Skin Exposure X costs $149 (approx £101) or $99 (approx $67) if you're upgrading from a previous version including Bokeh 1 and 2. Exposure X promises a lot and in this review we'll see if it can deliver. Now capable of working as a standalone program as well as a Phototshop and Lightroom plug in, Exposure X features image organisation, raw processing and new multi-tasking features as well as simple improvements such as shortcut keys, stackable effects and faster start up time. Alien Skin have returned with an Exposure program that has had a complete overhaul.
