Extensive Filter and Effect Library
Optics boasts an extensive library of over 180 filters derived from Boris FX’s professional visual effects suites such as Continuum, Sapphire, and Particle Illusion. These effects range from film stocks, particles, color grading, to Hollywood-style effects like atmospheric mist, accurate moon phases, and star positioning for astrophotography composites.
Cinematic Image Creation and Color Grading
The plugin provides powerful tools for creating cinematic looks, including film stock emulations and color matching filters to match colors precisely across images. It even features 85+ color grading presets based on Academy Award-nominated films.
Advanced Compositing and Masking Tools
Optics offers innovative masking techniques, such as the "Easy Mask" tool for quick and precise selections, and the ability to stack multiple mask types, facilitating complex photo composites and edits. With its layering system, users can easily manipulate and refine their images.
Professional Visual Effects Integration
In addition to its extensive filter library, Boris FX Optics includes 75 Emmy Award-winning Boris FX Sapphire filters, such as lens flares and glows.
