Topaz Labs releases Topaz Detail 3, a one-of-a-kind detail enhancement plug-in for Photoshop that offers photographers unmatched control over detail without fear of halos or image artifacts

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Topaz Labs announces the release of Topaz Detail 3, a major upgrade to the most comprehensive and flexible detail enhancement software available. Featuring cutting-edge detail enhancement technology, a boost in processing speed, an edge-aware masking brush, an updated interface with new presets and many more user requested features, this Photoshop plug-in is being offered as a free upgrade to current owners of Detail.

“We wanted to give photographers even more control over their image detail, so we’re really excited to offer this major Detail upgrade to our customers”

Topaz Detail has been popular with Topaz users since its initial release. The combination of incomparable detail control with halo-free results makes Detail stand apart from other sharpening and detail enhancing methods. In addition to breaking the image down into three detail layers based on size, Detail 3 now separates it by tone, allowing for very precise shadow and highlight specific detail adjustments. With the introduction of Topaz’ IntelliColor technology to help users achieve more natural and consistent tone, Detail 3 is the most flexible and powerful tool for creative and output sharpening.

“We wanted to give photographers even more control over their image detail, so we’re really excited to offer this major Detail upgrade to our customers,” said Nichole Paschal, Director of Marketing. “The new technology and tools included in Detail 3 makes it so easy to revive images, adding beautiful clarity and definition quickly. And with the edge-aware masking brush, transparency options and the ability to stack effects using the Apply button, selectively adding precise and intricate detail in the same session is easier than ever.”

Photographers looking for a great way to create high-quality detail enhancements are invited to try out the new Topaz Detail 3 plug-in for free using a 30-day free trial. There is also a special 30% discount, available until December 16, 2012, for Detail and the Topaz Photoshop Bundle. Current Topaz users can also use the discount towards any bundle upgrade. Topaz Detail retails for $39.99 and is a part of the Topaz Photoshop Bundle, which offers photographers a complete collection of correction and enhancement tools for all of their post processing needs.
