With a clean and user-friendly interface, this free plug-in is designed specifically for RAW photos but also supports editing of various file formats including JPEG, TIFF, and more.

The Curve section provides various curves to control colors, while the Color Mixer allows adjustment of HSL (Hue, Saturation, and Luminance). The Optics segment enables lens profile management, and the Geometry menu offers upright and scaling corrections. The Effects section includes Grain and Vignetting scales, and the Calibration menu allows control over camera calibration settings.

In addition to these powerful editing tools, Adobe Camera Raw also provides various additional features.
