    Yes indeed. I had a go with some stuff which caused major problems in the past, with stunning results!

    I can´t find it in the CO6 Express....or is it just a PRO tweak...?

    Not sure you read the blog:
    http://www.anpdm.com/newsletterweb/424B ... 4071424B59
    It basically is a special application of the LCC tool (lens color correction), which is a CO 6 Pro and DB only feature, not Express.

    Nothing in the blog actually says which version it's applicable to, though - another typically confusing and opaque bit of communication from Phase One.

    What, exactly, would be so hard about using a phrase like "Pro/DB versions only" in these things? Would that be too helpful or something? Instead:

    - users get these emails;
    - get all excited about what's being publicised;
    - fire up CO;
    - spend ages looking for the feature;
    - wonder whether they've forgotten to tick some box or click a button somewhere to activate the feature;
    - spend more time hunting for the "missing" box or button;
    - finally give up and post on here;
    - only then to find out that it's yet another useful feature held back from the "cheap" version.

    More misleading website nonsense...

    The feature comparison page on http://www.phaseone.com has this to say about Focus Mask:

    http://www.capture-the-moment.co.uk/tp/tfu29/upload/focus%20mask.jpg

    It's a Pro only feature, then...

    Yeah?

    Scroll down this page (paying very close attention to the url, which contains the word "Express" not once, but twice - it's explicitly part of the "Express" area of the site): http://www.phaseone.com/en/Software/Cap ... rials.aspx

    And you'll find this:

    http://www.capture-the-moment.co.uk/tp/tfu29/upload/focus%20mask%202.jpg

    Now I happen to know that Focus Mask is a pro feature, because I've been wading through this obtuse, misleading site for years: but God knows how somebody new to Phase One is supposed to figure out what's on offer.

    It's hard to imagine how they could make the website more confusing...
