- “I currently use LightZone as my editor because it does very close to everything I need my photo editor to do. I like that selective editing in LightZone is done with regions, similar to the way dodging and burning was done in the darkroom -- I think it is a more "photographic" way of working... I love the way the tool tabs have been added to nearly all the tools. Along with the blending modes, there is just unbelievable power behind every single tool -- and very easily accessed. A hugely important aspect of LightZone to me is how it can be as simple or as complex as the user desires... and that it really is more intuitive than other programs. Black and white conversion in LightZone is superb, and of course with the Zone System analogy and tone-mapping capabilities incredibly powerful. My results from printing -- especially upscaling -- have been breathtaking. The first print I got literally left me speechless for more than 30 minutes -- I could only shake my head in consternation and awe when I thought of all the time it took me to get a similar result[s] in a wet darkroom.”- William "Tex" Andrews, Baltimore, MD
- “I love LightZone as an editor. It's... a joy to use, the non-destructive automatic layers, coupled with the tool's flexibility with opacity, blending modes, color/tonal selections and easy shape-based maskings, make the program much easier for me to get to a final desired print than do tools like Photoshop. Ease of use, elegance of tools -- these are all places that LightZone shines. The styles are also of use for me, and I like many of the black and white styles for printing.”- James L. Kofron, Ph.D., Brighton, WI
- “[LightZone] is my only and preferred photo editor. I tried quite a number of others before I settled on LightZone. I am a medium to advanced amateur photographer and I love the ease of LightZone. I also love it's total editing concept and being able to do everything all in one from RAW conversion to final editing.”- Fred Stauseach, Uden, Holland
- “Most of my work is intensive development of only my best images, and for that LightZone is unexcelled. I often use the zonal capabilities of LightZone and the infinite possibilities provided are not as easily articulated in any other program.”- Don Baldwinson, Auckland, New Zealand
- “I use LightZone because the user interface is not complicated, [LightZone is] easy-to learn and use, yet allows for effective changes to be made. It has all the tool[s] you need and each tool allows for selective application based on colour/brightness/blend mode. ...region[s] work great and allow for really selective editing.”- Jeffrey O'Keefe, Brisbane, Australia
