This is a great addition to any software editing program. It adds to the art of photography.

There are several filter plug-ins for Photoshop and other programs; this one is very good for just a quick fix without having to wait for the big programs. I like some filters better than those in Photoshop or NIK, for example, and some not so well. At the current discounted price, however, it is worth having.

This is a decent collection of digital filters, many of which mimic physical filters. I find the use somewhat limited, and feel there are better filters and presets out there. It is a fairly simple program, however, so if you want to quickly apply filters to images without any real editing, this could be the software for you.

Great little program, especially at the price Adorama was selling it on special. It is another choice to use to work your photographs to the image you saw in your mind when you took the picture. The filters, the presets, the knowledge you can learn using the project does indeed make your pictures stand out in the crowd.

Looked at this software before, but when it went one sale for one third price, I could not pass it up. Fun to use, make some interesting changes to your photos!

I added this program, because I use Tiffin Filters in my photography. I am very impressed with this program and it is a great addition to my plug-in library.

Low cost chance to try filter by software. I like the split screen to see the effect. Just started to use it --so far, so good.

To provide the small adjustments to photos that just make them standout.

To really appreciate this software you will have to upgrade. It is really awesome. You will not need anything else.

I bought this while looking for a circular polarizer filter. The price was initially [$], but Adorama had it on sale for [$]. I thought that for [$] it was worth a try. Hey, I spend that much for lunch and a beer at my local brew pub!It was a little difficult to get the hang of it, but after playing with it a while I am very satisfied. The only drawback is that photo retreival is cumbersome, as it is a stand-alone software. I feel it nicely compliments Photoshop Elements 10.At [$] I definitely recommend it; at [$], maybe.

I'm still rather new to using this, but I'm almost overwhelmed at the amount of effect choices it offers and the ease of use. Highly customizable interface so you don't have to work around controls you don't use.

Has detailed uses but they are hard to put together.

Adorama had Tiffen DFX on sale and I figured I would give it a whirl, I mean its Tiffen right? From the time I installed the program it was very easy to use without even getting to the instructions. You can do some quick alterations and special effects on photos that are lab quality. If you just want to have some fun or looking to push the game of teaching yourself or somebody else about light and effects, this is a perfect program to build with. When you get to the advanced features you'll be that much more ahead. Great for entry level, semi pro, and pro photographers.

This scaled down version of dfx still allows for some good filters and effects to be applied very easily. Controls are very easy and clear to use.

The DFX V3 Standalone from Tiffen is a software that simulates over 2000 special effects from lens filters and film grain to natural light and color correction.
Add or modify the lighting and effects of a photograph in any way you would like using this powerful yet simple software plug-in. This enormous suite of features is an excellent source of digital optical filters for photographers, video editors and effects artists alike.
The Tiffen DFX V3 Standalone software differs from the DFX V3 Photo Plug-in in that this Standalone software does not require any additional programs such as Adobe Photoshop or Apple Aperture to run. The Standalone version is all you will need to get the thousands of available photo effects.
