Boris FX releases Optics 2025 (Win)

​

Boris FX has released Optics 2025, the latest version of its software for applying cinematic effects to still images for retouching, illustration or visualization.

The release adds a new AI-based mask-generation system, Particle Brushes for painting effects like fire and water into images, and multi-layer Looks presets.

Making VFX-style effects available to Photoshop and Lightroom users
First released in 2020, Optics is pitched as providing “visual effects for photographers”.

It is a renamed version of Digital Film Tools’ DFT, which Boris FX acquired in 2019, expanded with filters from other Boris FX products. Boris FX discontinued DFT itself in 2021.

It is available as a standalone application, and a plugin for Photoshop and Lightroom.

Optics 2025: new AI tech speeds up mask creation
Optics becomes the latest Boris FX application to integrate Mask ML, the AI masking technology recently introduced in roto and tracking tools Silhouette and Mocha Pro.

Users click on objects within a photo to have Optics isolate them automatically, creating a mask that can be used to selectively edit that part of the image.
