Reindeer Graphics(R) Wide Histogram is a tool for exploring the detail in the histogram of a 16-bit image that cannot be shown in Photoshop. The plug-in can display the histogram in three widths that give between 2x and 4x the resolution of the histogram palette in Photoshop. The plug-in provides eight different modes for the histogram display, including RGB, red channel, green channel, blue channel, "colors", hue, saturation, and luminance. The plug-in includes a PDF file documenting installation and usage. Reindeer Graphics(tm) Wide Histogram can be downloaded from the Reindeer Graphics website http://www.reindeergraphics.com

The Optipix package works on both 8 and 16 bit images and includes tools for automatically improving contrast, image averaging, blending bracketed exposures, enhancing edge detail, sub-pixel nudging, and color-safe sharpening. Optipix 2.0 retails for US$149.95.
