Digital cameras are not only fun for capturing special moments and gorgeous images, they are fast and efficient. Imagine for a moment you are driving along and spot some wild game. In a matter of seconds, you can pull over; capture the image, and resume driving. No longer do you need to load your camera with film, return to the same spot, and wait, hoping that the wild game will return to have their picture taken.

Some of the best pictures are spontaneous. They are just the types of images that would make for great contenders for Paint Shop Pro's editing and enhancing tools. How many times have you found yourself wishing that your subjects eyes weren't so red or that you could have removed some distracting object from the shot? With Paint Shop Pro you can perfect your images by removing red eye, dust, scratches and unwanted objects. You can also sharpen and correct specific colors.

The Smart Photo Fix is a great place to start if you are unsure how to correct your image. Smart Photo Fix analyzes your image and makes a suggestion for fixing it, showing a "before" and "after" image in the dialog box. You can accept these settings or fine-tune them even more to suit your taste.
