Briz Colors Matcher1.00

It sometimes happens during a photo shoot, particularly when working with multiple cameras, that the colors in pictures are slightly different and need adjusting, if they are to be integrated in the same slideshow, for instance, to avoid a disparate look.To achieve this adjustment, users can resort to LUT files, which store the color saturation values for pictures and even videos, allowing them to apply it to other files as well. There are many methods for generating such a file, and one of them is Briz Colors Matcher.

Intuitive GUI, yet no help file to resort to

In terms of user interface, the program is very minimalistic and easy to understand, as it only features one window, where users can perform all the required settings.While Briz Colors Matcher may not pose much of a problem to most people, it would have been useful to have a more detailed help file to guide users through working with it, in order to ensure satisfying end results; however, it features a few tips.

Color-correcting pictures with a 3D LUT file

Working with the application could not be any simpler. All users need to do is load the images into Briz Colors Matcher, namely the reference and the source pictures, in JPG, BMP, ICO, EMF or WMF formats, then begin adjusting the ‘Primary’ and ‘Secondary Corrections’.As such, users can adjust the ‘Brightness’, ‘Chroma’ and ‘Softness’ values, applying them to preview the results. A toggle button lets users preview the effects. If they are content with the way things look, they can then click on ‘Create 3D LUT’, selecting the preferred output format type (Dolby DD3, Clipster 3D, Quantel 3D, 3DL Fusion, Codex 3D, etc), from a drop-down menu, then also specifying the destination folder and file name.

A practical color-adjustment tool that outputs LUT files

All in all, Briz Colors Matcher proves to be an effective and simple to handle piece of software that photographers can resort to whenever they are unhappy with the color of their shots.
