  Nice software - great photo browser, RAW support, gps support, batch processing, HDR, templates for calendars and slide shows. The filters are easy to use. Thanks zoner - this beats my very expensive 'professional ' software hands down!
  
  Please give this software a serious look even if you already have another photo software - it is nicely done, very user friendly and well worth the price.

  Quite impressive; and fast. And a very conveniant handling. Two questions: can external programs be included (set up an icon that calls an external editor and passing on the selected pictures, for example); and is there a setting saying 'do not make thumbnails automatically'?
  
  Thanks.

  Is it possible to have multiple viewers open at the same time, with the photos in different tabs? I couldn't find how to do this.
  Thank you.

  On how many computers can I use Zoner Photo Studio? I would like to have an initial preview of my images "on the road" using my laptop/netbook as well as a detailed optimization later on at home using my desktop PC. Is this scenario covered by the license offered at Bits du Jour?

  Ron R: It's not possible. However, you can open multiple Editor tabs.

  Zoner Photo Studio seems to have improved quite a bit over the last few years. Due to a recent generous Zoner offer I was able to acquire the Standard edition though was unable to evaluate the Professional ed in the short period available. Thanks to BDJ and a week or so I shall be purchasing the Professional ed. Whilst the standard ed is very good the professional ed offered today includes some useful additions including DVD burning, batch window, Raw support, HDR, FTP, filters and extra import and acquiring features. As mentioned by others the batch processing is comprehensive, simple and easy to use with plenty of power for long tedious tasks, a cut above most, the compare photos, 3D, GPS, cataloging and exporting to various media are all welcome. The overall appearance is uncluttered and well thought through. As Peter mentioned an Icon/s for external helpers via the user toolbar would be most beneficial rather than constantly delving into the menu for functions that Zoner does not handle. Several small though often used toolbar icons appear to be lacking as options including select all. One of the toolbar's appears to be irremovable and moving toolbar's to preferred positions has proven to be difficult. As a long term user of several other well known image browsers and editors Zoner V12 will make a welcome addition at today's price. Hope that the authors are open to user suggestions for continued improvement. No program does everything perfectly though Zoner

  Hello Ron R,
  
  The Viewer can only take up a single tab. However, if you want to compare two to four pictures side-by-side, there is a way to do that: use Compare Images in the Organize menu. Mr. Hasala's suggestion with the multiple Editors also works well.
  
  Mr. Yoop,
  
  Sadly, for legal reasons, we have to use a one computer per license policy. However, generally in our tutorial mailings (these go out to people who have signed up for the tutorial mailing list on the zoner.com website), we include a 2-for-the-price-of-1 deal -- though this cannot be combined with other discounts.

  As an amateur in photography field, I was not going to invest $50 for this software until I read above comments and noticed tonnes of features incl calendar, greeting card, aging and other effects. Don't know how to use layering yet so will use their tutorials. Just bought and software looks promising :)
