It’s always a pleasure to hear Sigma CEO Kazuto Yamaki share his thoughtful insights on the photography industry. He remains deeply committed to bringing an L-mount full-frame Foveon camera to market — though it’s still some way off.

“We’re still developing the Foveon sensor. It’s currently in the technology development stage. We’re working on the pixel architecture, but haven’t yet begun designing the complete sensor. The technical challenges, however, have been significantly narrowed down.”

Sounds like it’s not coming before 2030 🙁

Real-Word Performance

One photographer tested Aiarty Image Enhancer V3.5 and was impressed with the results. See the screenshot below:

Enhanced Control for More Natural Results

With the new Strength slider, you have full control over sharpening and denoising:

• Slide down for a softer, more natural look.
• Slide up for sharper, crisper details.

You can also choose to denoise only or denoise + upscale in one pass—perfect for enhancing low-light, high-ISO, or wildlife shots where every detail matters.

Quick Color Correction Panel

Adjust white balance, exposure, contrast, saturation, and tint directly in the app to fix color issues and restore natural tones—no need to leave the interface.

Better Noise Reduction in Low-Light or High-ISO Conditions

Aiarty works wonders with long lenses and older glass, eliminating softness while keeping textures like feathers and fur sharp. It’s the perfect tool for wildlife, birds in flight, and landscape photography, where every detail counts.

Faster Facial Clarity and Portrait Enhancement

Not every photo needs Face Restoration, but when you do, V3.5 makes it faster and more efficient.
Choose between Gradient Overlay for subtle, natural blending, or Routine Overlay for bold, precise coverage—ideal for portraits and close-up shots.

Batch Processing & Speed

Speed through your edits with optimized GPU acceleration and batch processing.
Enhance dozens (or even hundreds) of images quickly while maintaining consistency across your workflow with real-time previews and custom presets.

Why Aiarty is the Smart Choice for Photographers

Aiarty Image Enhancer V3.5 delivers natural-looking results with precision and flexibility.
Whether you’re shooting wildlife, low-light, or high-ISO action shots, Aiarty elevates your images without relying on cloud processing or subscriptions.
