They brought 16-bit channels to the ordinary digicam, then beat Adobe to 16-bit editing tools in Photoshop.

We resize an image using the new Interactive Interpolation plug-in that let's you see the effect of your settings before you resize. Then we deblur an image taken in low light using the new Hubble-powered Refocus plug-in. We try out the JPEG Cleaner plug-in and play around with the Grain Maker plug-in, too.
Our conclusion? Optipix just keeps getting better. Read the review for the whole story.
