ImageIron is an excellent lens aberration removal tool. Whatever lens you are using, and whatever the condition, some distortion and light filtering is inevitable near the lens wall, or what will translate into the outer edges of the photograph. This is a sacrifice made in the name of the protection of the surface of the lens. ImageIron easily and professionally eliminates these aberrations, according to the parameters you define, while maintaining all metadata, image quality and resolution. The software comes with a detailed manual that outlines exactly how to analyse the distortion produced by the camera and lens you are using, to ensure you can set the parameters to the ideal levels for your equipment. This software is currently available at 69 Euros or approximately $92, and for the photography enthusiast is a very valuable tool.

Software to capture and remove lens aberration with highest precision (radial and tangential distortion, vignetting). Enables a clear revaluation of photographs taken with cheap lenses.

The calibration parameters are automatically calculated from pictures taken of a calibration-map.

- Extreme precision (even takes manufacturing inaccurracies into account)
- Supports consumer or high-end digital cameras (especially shift-lenses, too)
- Detailed output of the residue distortion after the calibration enables a reliable tolerance determination
- Batch image correction: just collect a list of images that shall be calibrated, select a destination folder, set the output options, and ImageIron automatically applies the calibration parameters according to the EXIF information (with preview)
- Support of 16 bit color depth and camera RAW-data
- Preserves all metadata (e.g. EXIF) and ICC data
- Parameter export (additional license required): Clear distortion- and vignetting-parameter representation as curves and as diagram, as well as parameter export as table (e.g. for quality control and camera lenses evaluation)

Excellently suitable for engineering purposes (development/verification of optical systems), architecture photography, preparation for photogrammetric applications as well as panorama photography!
