An excellent free photograph organizer and editing app.
Kestrel GX helps professionals to manage their photo collection. This application provides extensive search capabilities on the photos which have been added to the software to be cataloged. Also included with this sweet application is an image converter along with a basic photo editor.
The program is aimed at professional and advanced amateur photographers. The Image Manager filters the photos on the exposure time, aperture, focal length and other metadata. Kestrel GX grabs the information from image files stored in EXIF and IPTC data. The metadata can be edited by the photographer in Kestrel GX and can also export the information as text files.
The integrated editor allows all photographs to be adjusted as required: sharpness, contrast and brightness, or adding a watermark are all a breeze. A format converter can process multiple photos at once and convert them into destination formats. Alternatively, it can also save the images as PDF files.
Kestrel GX contains powerful tools and an excellent search engine for professionals. The editor isn't a replacement for a program like Adobe Photoshop, but does perform basic editing tasks.
