Having a digital camera is fun –you can shoot pictures almost endlessly and see how they look right after taking them. The problem comes when you have a great photo that needs some small improvements to be just perfect.

Digital Camera Enhance is what you need. This simple tool improves your digital photos in a semi-automatic mode by balancing their color, contrast and other values and also applying some skin smoothing and noise reduction filters. The good thing about Digital Camera Enhance is that you can manually adjust sliders to polish the final image.

On the downside, I didn't like a few points about the interface. First, the photo is reloaded every time you change a slide, when it would be easier to adjust a few sliders and then apply those changes to the picture. Also, it only offers two ways to view images: either at a 1:1 scale or fit to window mode. Finally, with the photo opened at full size, it would be more comfortable to move around it in both the original and the enhanced image preview windows.

Despite these minor flaws, results are good and Digital Camera Enhance is a great solution for digital camera owners who don't want to use a complicated application like Photoshop for just a few light changes.

Digital Camera Enhance is a perfect tool to automatically optimize photos that need small improvements without having to use a big, bloated editor.
