Adding A Touch Of Silver

Nice simple software to enhance black and white photographs by heightening a silver tone. Seems to have some limitations when the images are printed, but still working on that. A good software tool for black and white images.

I can't say enough about the Wacom tablet. It has been great for processing my images.

I bought this tablet to take with me when I travel for use with my laptop. I have the same tablet, but in a larger size for use on my desktop. I can't say enough about the Wacom tablet. It has been great for processing my images. The fact that the Nik Software was thrown in was a no brainer. The price was sight and both the tablet and Silver Effects Pro are great products. Thanks Adorama for offering these products at such a great. price

Fantastic way to get Silver Efex Pro!!!

I've been using a Wacom Intuos tablet for years. By re-mapping the tablet area to a smaller size I can use the tablet as a mouse without having to sweep my hand across a large tablet area. Then when I need more fine control I map the tablet back to "normal," or even map the whole tablet surface to a part of the screen. This allows me the fine control of a large tablet without the inconvenience (large footprint) of a large tablet. Note: mapping the tablet to part of the screen only works if you have a supplementary input device handy, such as a mouse or trackball. Otherwise you can't get back to where you can reach your whole screen. Some people find it hard to get used to, especially the way the cursor moves, but for me it's far more natural, just like using a normal pen. I know precisely where my cursor will show up, and not first have to find out where I "left" it. If you don't like having the cursor "jump" all around, you can still take advantage of the graphical pen aspect but set the preferences to have the cursor move in "mouse" mode. You get Silver Efex Pro (original version) with this bundle, but since you're now buying it after October 2010 you get a free upgrade to Silver Efex Pro 2 (see the Nik Software site). That means if you buy this bundle you get Silver Efex Pro for less than the software costs if you buy it by itself; AND you get a Wacom tablet thrown in for free. How sweet is that?!?!!! So sweet it makes my teeth hurt, that's how sweet. What are you waiting for?

Love tablet and Silver Efex!

Tablet takes very little getting Used to then you love it. So much more versatile than mouse. Silver Efex makes it easy to get great quality B&W- lots of good presets to try and very easy, intuitive sliders for custom. Highly recommended and SO much better than most programs "auto convert" for B&W
