Topaz Labs Releases Unique Image Enhancement Suite for Mac

Topaz Labs releases Topaz Vivacity for Mac, making the popular Photoshop image enhancement plug-in suite available for Intel-based Macs. Topaz Vivacity packs advanced noise reduction algorithms, intelligent sharpening techniques, and innovative pixel interpolation into a competitively priced package for photographers and digital image enthusiasts. This comprehensive image enhancement suite uses proprietary imaging technology developed by and for Topaz Labs (http://www.topazlabs.com), an image and video enhancement company based in Dallas, TX.

Topaz Vivacity gives the end-user high levels of control over the amount of detail preservation in its noise reduction and sharpening techniques. Unlike other noise removal software, Topaz Vivacity is especially designed to preserve as much detail as possible while removing noise, and employs a synergistic approach to noise reduction and sharpening/edge detection.

Such an approach is unique among software of its kind, and gives the end-user the power to virtually eliminate noise while preserving as much detail as possible. The unique smoothing algorithms in Topaz Vivacity also provide the opportunity for inventive fantasy-style effects achieved by intentionally overusing a Topaz filter.

Many users have found that Topaz Vivacity sharpening functions surpass classic Photoshop Unsharp Mask and Smart Sharpen filters by leaps and bounds. So-called sharpening "halos", ringing effects, and aliasing artifacts are much less pronounced with Topaz Vivacity's advanced sharpening and edge detection algorithms.

"Topaz Vivacity is perfect for digital photographers and image enthusiasts," said Topaz Labs President Albert Yang. "We designed the software so that you can use it, lose the noise, enhance the details, and get back to shooting as soon as possible."

Graphic design professionals also find Topaz Vivacity invaluable for improving low-quality stock images and creating unique effects not found anywhere else.
