Features
Fotografix is a non-destructive photo editor that does not modify the original photo directly but instead keeps track of adjustments separately.{{cite web|url=https://lmadhavan.com/fotografix/|title=Fotografix|work=Madhavan Lakshminarayanan|access-date=10 July 2022}} It features basic adjustments such as exposure, contrast, highlights and shadows as well as HSL for selective color adjustments.{{cite web|url=https://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Graphic/Graphic-Editors/Fotografix.shtml|title=Fotografix review|work=Softpedia|author=Robert Condorache|date=2021-12-15|access-date=10 July 2022}}
