Ever since I reviewed MacPhun’s FX Photo Studio for iOS, its insane amount of superior effects, the eye-catching interface taking full advantage of iPad’s canvas and the overall polish have been a revelation. Suffice to say that I walked away wanting that photo editing experience on my Mac. The opportunity is clearly there: Excluding big-name suites and a few established programs from indies, quality yet affordable photo editing programs are few and far between on the Mac.

And above all, it’s arguably the best example of an iOS port done right. The program’s Mac-ified interface takes feature parity across platforms to a whole new level and a lot richer editing tools build upon that.

Pros will appreciate its high-quality filters and the features which allow for advanced touch ups.

Lovely interface done right
Rather than just redo the iOS interface, the Mac port rethinks your workflow by letting you accomplish most touch ups with just a click or two. I’d like to see this iOS philosophy carried over into more Mac apps. Everything is inside a single window, no palettes floating around. The sleek, slightly subdued interface looks business. The controls slide in and out smoothly. The panels fade in when invoked. Xamarin studio visual studio for mac. Elegant animations lend to the sense of liveliness without slowing you down or obscuring your view.

Pro filters and tools ‘for the rest of us’
The software comes jam-packed with 159 filters (187 effects in iOS apps). We’re talking high-quality stuff, not the crippled filters you often find in many other photo editing applications. The ability to save multiple effect combos as presets is a winner. This allows for some nice cross-platform exchange. For example, I can do a mashup on my iPhone and import the resulting preset code into FX Photo Studio for Mac to continue using the same filter combo on my desktop.

What you won’t find in iOS apps, however, are advanced color correction and editing tools. There are fifteen of those in the Pro version, ranging from exposure, brightness, saturation, hue, color balance and sharpening tools to shadows, highlights, levels and individual channel controls. Major image formats are supported as well, including OpenEXR, RAW and Photoshop files. Plus, the application supports up to 32-megapixel photos. My rusty old Mac mini mostly zips through ten-megapixel snaps, with most effects taking a second or two to render. That’s a telling sign of under-the-hood optimizations in my book.
