Hi Folks,
I just happened to notice that one of my old favorite Photoshop plug-ins for sharpening, FocusMagic, has become available as a 64-bit version which can be used by the 64-bit version of Photoshop. Sofar it's only the Windows version, but according to their website, the Intel Mac version is planned for April 2013.
I had the 32-bit FocusMagic version installed on my Win7 computer, so I could use it with the 32-bit Photoshop version, but it's a drag having to switch between Photoshop versions only for that reason. The 64-bit Beta version installed without asking for activation codes, so I assume it recognized the code that was already in place for the 32-bit version.
There are no details avialable about expiration date of the Beta version, or when the final product is expected. I also have no information yet about upgrade costs, if any (they do promise lifetime free upgrades on their home page), but I'm not sure if they consider this as a new product or just an upgrade.
Cheers,
Bart
