The latest update of Artizen HDR has now been made available. This update focused on performance, reducing memory overhead, adding new HDR functions and bug fixing.

For those who have never tried Artizen before, it is a similiar application to Lightroom but without the Image Managment system. It picks up where Lightroom leaves off with not only full RAW support but also extensive HDR functionality at a competitive price of only $45.95 (Canadian) compared to Lightroom's price tag of $299 (US).
