CyberLink is a company that is synonymous with software that is incredibly powerful yet also incredibly easy to use.  When it comes to the arena of photo editing, there are a number of extremely high-end tools to choose from, and these have a tendency to not only be very complicated to use, but also restrictively expensive. The same cannot be said of CyberLink PhotoDirector which includes all of the powerful tools you would expect to find in a professional image editing tool, but it is far easier to use than the likes of Adobe Photoshop.

We thought we’d let you in on a deal which will get you the latest PhotoDirector 3, which is retailing with a $149.95 MSRP for only $69.95, saving you a huge 54%. Read on.

The latest version of the photo program is CyberLink PhotoDirector v3; this usually sells for $149.95 and you can find out more in our review. The application’s predecessor, CyberLink PhotoDirector 2011 is still available however, and this is a very capable tool in its own right. But choosing to buy this previous version does not mean you have to miss out on the latest and greatest features – in fact, it means that you are making a great saving. This is because when you buy CyberLink PhotoDirector 2011 for just $69.95, you will automatically receive a free upgrade to v3, effectively shaving more than half off the regular MSRP.

CyberLink PhotoDirector is a professional level tool without the professional price tag

If you have already tried out the 2011 version of the program, you will find that v3 is a major advancement on an already very capable product. There is a strong focus on workflow, and this is something that will be welcomed by keen amateur photographers as well as professionals. The program interface is divided up in to five main sections, the first of which can be used to catalog and organize your images, while the Edit and Adjustment section can be used to tweak and enhance your shots. Slideshow and Print sections are also available for you to make the most of your edited images.

There is support for RAW image formats – something that will appeal to the more professional end of the market – and when it comes to organizing your image collection, you can use tags and flags to categorize images and make them easier to find and filter. As well as giving you the opportunity to manually adjust every aspect of your photos, there are also a number of presets available to help you to get results as quickly as possible. There is also a batch processing option and a number of advanced tools such as the background and object removal features.

You can find out more by paying a visit to the CyberLink PhotoDirector v3 review page and to take advantage of the special upgrade offer, pay a visit to the Downloadcrew Software Store. Hurry though, this offer is limited to the remaining 2011 serial codes remaining in stock and will end March 31.
