New Jasc After Shot targets digital camera owners

Jasc Software, developer of the popular photo and Web graphics editor Jasc Paint Shop Pro, recently announced the release of Jasc After Shot, the easy way to organize, fix, and share photos from digital cameras. After Shot, formerly titled Image Expert 2000, comes to Jasc Software from Sierra Imaging.

Specifically designed for digital camera users, Jasc After Shot literally picks up from where digital cameras leave off. After Shot takes digital photographers from acquiring photos from their cameras and organizing photos into searchable albums, to enhancing and sharing photos quickly and easily. After Shot is an essential application for digital photography and works extremely well as a complement to any photo editing or desktop publishing programs.

"As digital cameras continue to gain in popularity, digital camera owners are looking for tools to help them complete specific photo tasks quickly. After Shot makes these tasks easy and fun," said Kris Tufto, president and CEO of Jasc Software. "After Shot is really an extension of our continuing commitment to digital photographers, and allows us to make digital photography even more accessible."

After Shot helps digital camera users:
Easily access camera media. After Shot makes connecting with cameras a snap - users can automatically copy over photos from a PC card reader, drag and drop from the explorer window, and take advantage one-click camera connection for many popular camera brands.
Save time by quickly processing groups of photos. It's easy to rename files; rotate, color correct, and resize images; and save to another file format, all in time-saving batch mode.
Take hundreds of photos and still stay organized. With After Shot, photo hobbyists can easily create photo albums, attach keywords to photos, and search for specific photos using keywords.
Fix photos fast. After Shot makes every photo better fast with easy-to-use correction tools including Quick Fix, a one-click, automatic color correction option; red-eye removal tool; and the ability to instantly crop photos to standard photo sizes.
Easily share photos. After Shot supports online photo services, making it easy to post photos for viewing by friends and family, and to order prints. Users can also export favorite photos to HTML and create portable slideshows, perfect for burning to CD.
Save time and paper by printing multiple photos using standard templates. Users can instantly drop photos into printing templates using common photo sizes: 3x5, 4x6, 5x7, combo packs, and many more.
Automatically stitch photos to create panoramas. Drag-and-drop setup allows users to easily make a set of individual photos into a panorama, instantly.
Take advantage of cool tools. Create a slideshow of favorite photos, and email it to friends and family; turn an album of photos into a desktop screensaver; and choose from numerous templates to publish photos on the Web. Even add text or narrations to favorite photos.
