Zoner Studio is a software application developed by Zoner Software. It includes a bitmap editor and image file manager used for editing digital photographs.[4] It is used in its country of origin (Czech Republic) and around the world.[5][6] It is based on subscription model and new update is published twice a year.
As of 2025, this software is available for the Windows operating system.
History
[edit] |
In 2004, Zoner Media Explorer was renamed Zoner Photo Studio because the product focus switched to strictly digital photography.
Version 12
[edit]Version 12 introduced the program's division into modules: Manager, Viewer, Editor, and raw module, to increase the ease of working simultaneous with photo management, editing, etc. It added a default charcoal gray interface, intended to ease photo viewing.
Updates
[edit]- Version 13 brought support for dual monitors and 64-bit versions of Windows.
- Version 14 brought support for batch upload to the developer's Zonerama web gallery service and GPU acceleration via CUDA and OpenCL.
- Version 15 added an Import module.
- Version 16 completed the Editor's switch to using the Side Panel.
- Version 17 revamped the raw module and made the Catalog more central to the Manager.
- Version 18 brought a major interface change. The five modules were merged into three: Manager, Develop, and Editor. Develop enables non-destructive edits to raw files and other supported files. This version was subscription based and added fine-tuned retouching tools and support for layer-based editing.
Version Zoner Photo Studio X
[edit]In 2016, the software was transferred to Zoner Photo Studio X and Zoner has switched from a business model of selling lifetime licenses to a subscription system, to which it provides updates twice a year (for free). Version ZPS X brought layers, ordering printed photo products directly from the software and many more improvements over the years - for example full support of HEIF format, dozens of free presets, its own cloud storage Zoner Photo Cloud, faster and more effective workflow with RAW format, color shifting and split toning, AI tools or completely renewed video editor.
Zoner Photo Studio X becomes Zoner Studio
[edit]In 2025, Zoner Photo Studio X rebranded to Zoner Studio. Subscription terms stayed the same and 2025 spring update brought even more AI tools – Subject, Background, Sky and Object. Other improvements were for example Color Range and Luminance Range Masking Tools, AI Selections or Multi-Canvas Prints or collages for social media.
