BenVista PhotoZoom Classic 8.0.6

Enlarging digital images and photographs may result in unwanted artifacts and an overall loss of quality, unless using very high-quality images and a professional set of image enlargement algorithms. BenVista PhotoZoom Classic offers you a wide array of high-end enlarging technologies and a user-friendly GUI to resize your best shots without losing any of their original quality.

BenVista PhotoZoom Classic uses S-Spline XL technologies to guarantee that the enlargements it creates are of the highest quality. Still, it also supports nearly all well-known resizing algorithms, so that you can choose the one that better fits your requirements. Laczos, Bicubic, B-Spline, Mitchell, or Bilinear are but a few examples of these enlarging techniques. To make things even easier, it provides you with a nice set of profiles that will allow you to resize any picture with just a few clicks, while letting you create and save your own presets.

Though clearly focused on lossless image enlargement, this useful tool comes with a reduced yet useful set of other features that will allow you to improve your digital photographs while creating top-quality enlargements in a professional way. The program can crop, rotate, flip, sharpen, and enhance your images using straightforward controls and sliders to ease the editing tasks. Besides, it offers you up to three different before-and-after preview windows, where you can see the results in real time.

BenVista PhotoZoom Classic is not a cheap tool – actually, its price tag is more on the pricey side, especially if we take into account the limited amount of editing tools the program provides. There is a Pro version that is even more expensive, though it will let you open and transform images of the highest quality and includes a Photoshop-compatible plug-in, among other things. You can always give it a try first for free, so that you can see for yourself if it is really worth the requested fee.
