1. Radius Extendend Range up to 350 pixels

Hi radius value re-allocates the contrast of an image in a way that is at the same time powerful and gentle.
Higher values are particularly suitable for larger files, landscapes, portraits etc.
To access to the extended range simply select the Extended range box as shown in the image below.

2. Faster. Approximately twice faster compared to ALCE1

Thanks to the new routine ALCE2 is much more faster even if the amount of speed-up may vary from one system to another.
Consequently we cannot guarantee the speed improvements shown in the figure above

3. New color engine working in lab color space, fully compatible with 64bit systems.

ALCE2 is very similar to ALCE2 with improvements on darker areas. See an example on the figure above.
