OK, so let's start out with some of the explanations from the Photolemur website to give you a sense of what this software is about.
"Photolemur is the world’s first fully automated solution for creating perfect photos. It works on Mac and PC, automatically analyzes and perfects your images, and doesn’t require any manual involvement."
”Who says you need loads of free time and expensive software to perfect your images? Photolemur does all the heavy lifting, so you can spend more time having photo-worthy adventures!”
Photolemur claims to process photos using AI. The acronym 'AI' seems to get thrown everywhere these days. Its true meaning seems to have been a little lost as it has become a buzz word to help sell a product.In the case of Photolemur, hopefully you get the point. They are presumably trying to stress 4 things...
Photos are processed automatically
Multiple parameters are adjusted (shadows, contrast, saturation, lens correction, vibrance, white balance etc.)
Each photo is treated separately and individually. All the above parameters being changed by differing amounts in accordance with the needs of the original
Some random extra 'magic'....this is the sales bit...who knows if it means anything at all
It's easier for Skylum to just to say 'AI', right?
WHAT'S IN THE VIDEO?
In the video I look at the brand new Photolemur 3 (released September 2018). Firstly, I provide an overview of the software and demonstrate its capability using about 8 difference RAW photos from my Canon 5D MkIII. I tried to pick a variety of difference image types (landscape, portrait, architecture) and also tried to dig out a few images that appear (at least on first inspection) to be a little bit tricky to process.Hopefully it will help make the demonstration useful to more people. Here's the idea. The video has me complaining about the bits I would like to change but the results from the software will speak for themselves.
