FACE DETECTION & FACIAL RECOGNITION
Never lose a face to the crowd again
Organizing has never been easier. ACDSee Photo Studio for Mac 9 delivers a new Face Detection & Facial Recognition tool, fueled by Artificial Intelligence, which finds the faces in your photographs and allows you to name them with ease and expediency. The software will immediately learn which names to put to which faces and suggest possible matches. Take advantage of the new People Manager to merge, rename, or remove people. Save time and energy when migrating from Lightroom™ or Picasa™ by importing your face data directly into ACDSee Photo Studio. Eliminate hours of tedious manual searching, and keep photos distinguished by friends, family, and anyone in between!
DEVELOP PRESETS, HISTORY, & SNAPSHOTS PANE
Capture your creative process, in real-time
Find Develop Presets, edit History, and image Snapshots in a new and convenient right-hand side pane within Develop mode.
Develop Presets
Take advantage of easily accessible Presets and apply a variety of adjustments designed to make your landscape shots more epic, portrait photography more striking, and an array of other enhancements in a single click. The addition of over 50 new Develop presets – like Moonlit and Summer – will help you find your signature style; or you can create and save your own Develop presets, accessing them right from the Presets pane itself!
History
It can be easy to lose track of your edits after you’ve applied them, especially with the many exceptional post-processing options that ACDSee offers. With the History pane, you can view a list of each step you took in Develop mode to reach your image’s current edited state. Keep an eye on each adjustment you made or click on a specific edit and take the image right back to that step. With History, you’ll have a complete view of your photo’s editing journey, from start to finish.
Snapshots
The possibilities are endless when it comes to editing your images. Use Snapshots to save sets of modifications that can be applied to the image at any time. Save multiple Snapshots and experiment with different looks by easily switching between your Snapshots in real-time to find the perfect photo.

Manipulate color in your images with an array of intuitive tools like Color & Tone Wheels or Color EQ, make quick work of repairing old or damaged photos using the Heal & Clone tools or Skin Tune, and choose from a collection of powerful lighting and contrast tools, such as ACDSee’s patented Light EQ™ or Dehaze, to emphasize what you want in your photos.
