Dfx v2 Filter Effects
Tiffen Dfx Digital Filter Suite is the definitive set of digital
optical filters. Up to 2000 filters, including simulations of many
popular award-winning Tiffen glass filters, specialized lenses, optical
lab processes, film grain, exacting color correction plus natural light
and photographic effects--are now in a controlled digital environment
with either 8 or 16 bits per channel processing.
Available in 3 configurations: as a powerful but user friendly
standalone application or as plug-ins for either still imaging or video
and film post production software, Tiffen Dfx filters,
expands your creative experience. Please note, that depending on which
configuration you use, not all filter effects or tools will be
available. Please check the user's guide for complete specifications.
What's New?
Stand-alone Changes
View > Window > Reset
Resets the window layout the next time Dfx is started. This is useful if you have tweaked your windows beyond recognition.
Edit Layout
The Edit Layout accessed with the View menu or the F3 key now has
Presets on the left side of the Viewer and Parameters on the right side.
Horizontal and Vertical Split Comparison
Horizontal and Vertical Split Comparison icons replace the single Split
Comparison icon. You can also now drag the comparison bar inside the
Viewer.
Mask Icons
Icons have been added to the various mask controls that previously were text only.
Layer Opacity
A Layer Opacity control has been added to the right of the layer name.
Reset
A Reset icon has been added to the Toolbar to reset Dfx back to the original image with nothing applied to it.
EZ Mask
● Blur controls have been added for the EZ Mask masks.
● The Generate Mask icon was changed.
Batch Processing Optimized
Batch processing has been optimized for use with longer sequences.
DPX Interpretation Preference
Dfx tries to figure out whether a
DPX
file is logarithmic or linear based on the files header information.
Sometimes the program used to create the DPX file writes the wrong
information into the header causing Dfx to think it is Logarithmic when
it is Linear and vice versa. To explicitly set whether or not the file
is Logarithmic or Linear, you can do so by setting
File > Preference > DPX Interpretation.
Smooth Animation in Viewer
The Viewer animates images smoothly when they are loaded, closed and when the comparison modes are used.
Color Management
● The Color Management system has been re-written and now operates like other competitive programs.
● If an image has an embedded color profile, that color profile is preserved.
● If an image does not have an embedded color profile, color management is disabled in Dfx.
● The Color Management now makes use of your system's graphics card. It is much faster now.
Filter Changes All Versions
Light
● A Subtract blend mode has been added to the Light > Blend menu.
This allows you to use the light patterns to add shadow instead of
light.
● Light > GamColor Presets have been renamed to Gels.
● The Light > Displacement algorithm was re-written.
● Shapes have been categorized according to their series.
● Shape > Gam Pattern has been renamed to Category.
● The Shape group has been renamed to Gobo.
