Cyberlink PhotoDirector 7 Ultra

This is an excellent photo editor. It isnt as dumbed down as Photoshop Elements and it has many of the features of Lightroom (its clear they patterned a lot of its capability after Lightroom). I couldnt find anything in PhotoDirector that was lacking. In fact, they make it easier to use some of the more advance features of Lightroom. For example, in Lightroom you can see the effects of the Masking tool under Sharpening by holding the ALT key while moving the slider. In PhotoDirector, you dont have to learn about the ALT key option from some other source - they have a button near these tools that allow you to see a preview (the ALT key works in PhotoDirector as well).

Love this.Its easy to use and make my photos so much nicer.

Up to now, the only photo editing Ive done with with the simple crop, contrasts, brightness, and red eye effects with the Windows program that came with my computer. With a backlog of family photo CDs collected over the years, I wanted a program to help me organize and edit the best of them. So, I was pleased at the opportunity to try this program, even though I thought it might be overkill for what I wanted. It is.

I am a scrapbook mom. And this is amazing!...It tags the pics, sorts by name, date. Projects and more. Love it!

The key functionalities offered by the Cyberlink PD7 Ultra are available in Adobe Photoshop Elements, but the design is more friendly on the eyes. Cyberlink needs lower their price to be comparable to Elements before they will find a successful product.

I originally got version 6 as a free download, then upgraded it to version 7 (paid upgrade). I am still learning the program.

I had high hopes for this program. I have been looking for a NON-Adobe product that does more to enhance my photographs than the free program I currently have. This promised great potential, since it is supposed to allow you to layer images, substitute faces, etc.; however, I did not find it lived up to my expectations.

hard to understand but good program

This is my initial take on this edition of Cyber Link Photo Director 7 Ultra, to satisfy the needs required by Amazon Vine.

It is prob fine for someone who knows what there doing and I dont so that is the reason for a 3 rating I just found it very hard for me
