Microsoft’s claim- “Windows is better for photos than a Mac”
Microsoft announced a lot of improvements to Windows Live to include new suite of applications for better management of photos and videos and sync for files. Scheduled for beta release in the coming months, the updated suite will bring a boat-load of new features. Windows Live Essentials which is available for free includes Messenger, Mail, Photo Gallery, Movie Maker, Writer, Sync and Family Safety. Among the touted application is the new version of live photo gallery.
The new Windows Live Photo Gallery of Microsoft highlights following features:
1. Auto Adjustment: - one click that fine-tunes exposure, color balance, angle, and sharpness.
2. Retouch: - remove blemishes, or even entire person.
3. Batch Editing: - do same action to a number of photos at once.
4. Photo Fuse: - use similar photos to create a perfect picture (i.e. closed eyes).
5. Sharing: - the ability to publish your photos directly to social media sites, online storage locations, and send via email or chat.
6. Sync: - the ability to have all of your files on the go, as well as synched across all of your PCs.
7. Slide Shows: - in a few clicks, create and share slide shows with transitions and visual effects.
All the above looks like Windows is all geared to take on Mac. Looking at what Live has to offer, looks like Brian Hall, General Manager was very serious when he said “Windows is better for photos than a Mac, hands down.”
You can view the preview of Microsoft Windows Live on Microsoft’s site. If you can’t view may be Microsoft will put trial for that in next few days.
