Comments about Tiffen Tiffen DFX Software, Plug-in Set for Adobe Photoshop, Version 2, for Mac & Windows:

The beautiful fall season in the northeast has it's downside. This product does a fantastic job of turning ugly brown grass green and changing dead-looking trees or mountain scenes either a beautiful green or lovely fall color. I'm a CS4 novice and have been disappointed with the time and effort it takes to try and do the same thing in CS4 with unacceptable results. This product is easy to learn and use, you just need to know what the icons mean and how the program reacts to your selection marks.

I take dog agility photos and many dogs have long whispy, flowing fur & hair. The demo with the golden retriever sold me on this product. Most of my photos take longer to select foreground and background, but the results are worth the effort.

There are a lot of filters included and each one is customizable for endless possibilities. Another filter I use a lot is depth of field to blur fences and less desireable backgrounds as I can't always adjust my camera to do it as I shoot.

I haven't explored all the capabilities of Dfx2 and I'm sure it can do much more than what I've mentioned above. If you can affort the price for the CS4 plug-in, it integrates just as well as many other popular plug-ins.
