Computrolley.com has enhanced its product offering by announcing that it will act as channel distributor for the Square One Solutions Group Limited`s range of image editing specialist products from U-Lead. Geared at both image editing and authoring hobbyists and professionals, U-Lead products offer these users cost-effective options.
According to Gary Naidoo, national product manager at Computrolley.com, this market segment holds tremendous growth potential locally. "Since DVD-RW became available last year, the market has significantly expanded. Prior to that DVD-RAM was the standard, which allowed one write back per DVD and it could not be read by a standard DVD drive. Now however, users are able to gain access to the DVD writer via a standard DVD-ROM, while having the option of writing to the DVD more than once. This provides full authoring capability to the user and offers them creative freedom."
Simon Campbell-Young, MD of Computrolley.com, commenting on the selection of the U-Lead range, describes it as a well-known, quality product range offering at an affordable price. "There are already a variety of image editing packages available on the market, however, the snag is that most of these require additional hardware or a powerful workstation, which is not the case with U-Lead. That is one of the reasons why it is particularly suited to the hobbyist."
The U-Lead image editing software allows for most, if not all, of the traditional darkroom techniques. These include cropping and sizing, dodging and burning, contrast and density control, as well as colour correction. "The software also provides a myriad of special capabilities that truly take advantage of digital imaging, while other U-Lead products even allow users to create their own movies," adds Naidoo.
U-Lead products provided by Computrolley.com include tools for video editing, DVD authoring, image editing, animation, Web utilities and digital photography. Apart from a dedicated focus on its current dealer network, Campbell-Young says that Computrolley.com will look at bundling opportunities with entities such as photographic shops. "All products are available from us, with immediate effect," he concludes.
