PhotoKey v5 ships from April 19th, and customers purchasing version 4 now will receive free updates once version 5 is available. Among the new features are better keying capabilities that can even handle transparent objects, improved spill suppression that can correct for color casts from chromakey backdrops, a spill simulation function that can replace suppressed fill with a different hue, and the ability to email images or share them on Facebook and Flickr directly from the app.
