Inside Amber
From the original photograph to the finished series.
Your RAW. Your choice.
Choose Apple RAW processing or open-source LightCraft engine. Pick the approach that best suits your source images.
Edit RAW, JPEG, TIFF, PNG and HEIC non-destructively, keeping your originals untouched.
Every detail, considered.
Compare before and after. Inspect at 1:1, check the histogram, then refine your crop, rotation and perspective.
A look for the whole series.
Move through your Film Strip, rate favourites, save snapshots and apply your recipe across a series.
Ready for the next step.
Batch export JPEG, TIFF or PNG, with 8/16-bit options where supported. Choose sRGB, Display P3 or Adobe RGB.
