I believe they do this by making the effect of the plugin a layer and you apply as much or little as you want. The whole thing is $59 (cost) and the plugin is better integrated allowing non destructive edits without generating a new copy. I do plan to install the trial, but wanted to get your opinions.Ī limited version of perfectly clear is built into Corel's aftershot pro. It is a pricey product and unless it saves me time per wedding (600+ images per wedding), then I don't see the cost benefit. I understand that it is basically an external program and returns an edited new file to Lightroom. Do you find this to be true? How is the quality? Never been pleased with Adobe Auto Tone feature and it looks like Perfectly Clear does well in the exposure correction department. I edit for weddings and generally use several user presets to batch many of the same type of photos to get them roughly right. I really like Lightroom from a workflow perspective.

What are your thoughts on this plugin for Lightroom 4 in reducing workflow with many images? To honest, it looked like it complicated the workflow.

I viewed a webinar from xRite today and the presenter was selling this to speed up your RAW workflow. I did a search here and found some older threads that mentioned this plugin.but thought I would ask.
