If you’re not sure what sliders to tweak, you can ask Pixelmator Photo to use its built in machine learning capability to have a go at improving your photo. I had the photo in front of me and editable in 8 seconds. As a test, I opened one such RAW file using the FileExplorer application’s network connection over wifi to my Mac to fetch the file off an external SSD. In my use of the app there was NO lag of any kind when adjusting sliders on a 24 megapixel, 14-bit RAW file which weighs in over 30 megabytes in size.

You can then seamlessly and quickly perform non-destructive processing on the image with the full dynamic range that RAW files provide. Pixelmator Photo handles RAW images using iOS built in support so can understand images from over 500 different camera models. With Pixelmator Photo’s Share Sheet item, you can open a picture directly from almost anywhere. For more power, Pixelmator Photo lets you use the iOS file picker and this is incredibly versatile, as you can open and save images with any service that integrates with the Files app, such as Dropbox, OneDrive, or iCloud Drive itself. Pixelmator Photo can import images from your iCloud Photo Library, which is nothing unusual, but when you’re done processing your image you can either save it back to the original as an edit (allowing for Photos’ native “revert to original” capability) or as a new photo. There are some key features of Pixelmator Photo that stand out for me over other iOS photo apps. It turned out to be almost the perfect app for processing RAW photos from my DSLR camera while on the go.
Pixelmator pro#
Pixelmator Pro requires macOS High Sierra and a Metal-compatible graphics card.Pixelmator Photo for iPad was launched, rather fortuitously, just before I went on holiday. New customers can download it from the Mac App Store for $39.99.
Pixelmator upgrade#
Existing Pixelmator Pro users can upgrade to Hummingbird for free. Given the more affordable image editor's improvements, some may even choose not to convert. Hummingbird also offers templates for all Apple devices - sure to make life easier if you're designing for Apple Watch or iPad.Īdobe is expected to release the iPad version of Photoshop sometime this year, but until then, Pixelmator Pro is a worthy alternative. Also new is the ability to drag and drop layered files directly into existing images, refresh Slice and Paint tool presets and better performance for documents with a large number of layers. An updated Crop tool has a Delete mode and the ability to crop to custom pixel sizes. Hummingbird comes with a new Zoom tool, which has a more responsive navigator. This will be a massive timesaver if you're the type who likes to switch between editing on your iPad and your desktop, or your work and home computer.
Using iCloud, files saved to the Apple Photo library will sync across multiple devices. Any layers or nondestructive edits will be automatically saved in an associated Pixelmator Pro document. Now, any edits made using the extension can be saved directly to Photos. Prior to the update, Apple Photos users would have to open an image separately in Pixelmator Pro, make edits and then sync everything back to their main library. Nothing is missing from the extension - users can perform layer-based edits, edit RAW photos, paint with digital brushes and more.
The Pixelmator team unveiled Pixelmator Pro 1.4 Hummingbird today, which includes an extension that brings its entire suite of editing tools to Apple's photo library.
Pixelmator update#
Now an update to the image editor will make it easier for you to perform advanced visual editing right in Apple Photos. We've long favored Pixelmator Pro as an effective and affordable alternative to Adobe Photoshop.
