Available today as a free update for all Photo RAW 2026 and 2026 MAX owners, this release introduces Restore AI, a powerful new module in Photo RAW MAX that lets you restore old photos with AI in seconds, not hours. Whether you’re rescuing scanned film prints from a shoebox, recovering soft or noisy shots from an old smartphone, or trying to colorize black and white photos with realistic results, Restore AI handles it automatically inside ON1 Photo RAW MAX.

2026.4 also redesigns the Home experience to get you into your work faster, delivers meaningful performance improvements throughout the app, and rounds out the update with new lens profiles and targeted bug fixes. If you’ve been using ON1 Photo RAW 2026 as your primary photo editing software, this update makes it better in ways you’ll feel every time you open the app.

Just launch ON1 Photo RAW 2026 to get the update, or download it from your ON1 account.

“This is the kind of update we set out to build this year. Meaningful new capabilities alongside the steady refinements that make the software easier to rely on every day,” says Dan Harlacher, VP of Product at ON1.

Restore AI: Every Photo Has a Second Chance

You have photos you never open. Some came from your first smartphone, a starter DSLR, a point-and-shoot from fifteen years ago. The moments were real, but the cameras couldn’t do them justice. And somewhere in a closet, there are shoeboxes of prints and negatives from your film days.

Restore AI, a new module inside ON1 Photo RAW MAX, fixes that. It sharpens soft images, recovers lost detail, corrects faded and shifted color, and removes noise that made you shelve the shot. It works on scanned prints and old film, but most of the photos it will improve are ones you shot yourself in the last twenty years. What used to take hours of retouching now takes seconds.

What Restore AI can do:

  • Rebuilds lost detail, improves clarity, and reduces noise in soft, grainy, or poorly digitized images, with the option to add natural film grain back in.
  • Transforms black-and-white photos into realistic color images and restores natural tone to photos affected by fading or color shift, with full user control over the result.
  • Detects faces and restores lost facial detail while maintaining recognition.
  • Steers the restoration with natural language prompts. Improve colorization, fix or add text, blur backgrounds, adjust ages, and more.
  • Fine-tunes tonal correction, warmth, saturation, and tint, including monochrome photos.
  • Restores entire albums automatically and supports negative conversion, organization, metadata, and easy export and sharing.
  • Cloud-powered processing handles complex restoration tasks that go beyond what desktop computers can manage on their own.

Restore AI is fully included with ON1 Photo RAW MAX or ON1 Photo Studio with no credits or tokens required.

What to Expect from Restore AI

Restore AI does work that used to require hours of careful retouching. Most photos will come out looking good. But results vary depending on the condition of the original, and it’s worth being honest about that.

Faces are the hardest part, and an area we’ll keep improving over time. Restore AI detects and enhances facial detail, but it won’t be perfect every time. A photo that would have taken hours of manual work may now be 90 percent of the way there in seconds. From that point, you can refine using the full power of ON1 Photo RAW MAX. The goal is to save you hours, not to make every decision for you.

ON1 Photo RAW 2026.4 new Home module showing quick access shortcuts for Open a Photo, Browse Folder, Import from Device, recent folders, and getting started training videos

A New Home Experience

The 2026.4 update introduces a new Home module that serves as the default starting point when you open ON1 Photo RAW. It’s built to help you get into your work faster and make more of the app discoverable over time.

  • Quick shortcuts to Open a Photo, Browse a Folder, and Import from Device.
  • Access to Recent Edits, folders, and albums so you can pick up right where you left off.
  • What’s New and Training content to help you get more out of the software over time.

Faster Performance in ON1 Photo RAW

Browsing a large library in Browse is faster in 2026.4. Thumbnails populate almost instantly when you open a new shoot, and scrolling is noticeably more responsive. We’ve also tuned the number of thumbnails displayed so you can see more images at once without extra clicks. The right-click context menu has been cleaned up too so it’s shorter and easier to scan.

Editing with many local adjustments is faster as well. Moving sliders and painting uses less memory and responds more quickly.

More Lens Support, Bug Fixes. and Stability Improvements

2026.4 includes new lens profiles, a targeted set of bug fixes, and under-the-hood stability improvements. These are the refinements you may not notice individually, but they add up to a more reliable, consistent editing experience across macOS and Windows.

Trusted Innovation, Built for Photographers

2026.4 is one more step in a year of steady, purposeful progress. Not features built for headlines, but improvements photographers feel in their daily work.

Since October 2025, we’ve delivered consistent updates across performance, AI tools, compatibility, and workflow. Each release builds on the last. Raw processing is an area we are actively working on and are excited to show these results soon. Your photos will look more accurate straight out of the camera and respond faster in the Edit module. More tools are coming that simplify everyday editing without taking control away from you. Updates will keep arriving more frequently, so fixes and improvements reach you sooner.

The goal stays the same: give you outstanding results while keeping you in control. Photo RAW should be a tool you can trust and rely on, year after year.

If you haven’t read our vision for what’s next, it’s worth a few minutes. It explains why we’re focused on faster releases, practical AI, and improvements that compound quietly over time. Every update in the 2026 cycle is included at no additional cost for Photo RAW 2026 owners. Subscribers to ON1 Photo RAW MAX and ON1 Photo Studio receive the latest updates and major releases automatically. More is coming in 2026.

Available Now for macOS and Windows

ON1 Photo RAW 2026.4 is available today for macOS and Windows. If you own ON1 Photo RAW 2026, just launch the app to get the update.

Restore AI is available exclusively inside ON1 Photo RAW MAX. If you own ON1 Photo RAW 2026 and want access to Restore AI, you can upgrade to Photo RAW MAX to unlock it.

Announcing ON1 Effects 2026 — Fast Professional Photo Effects Software https://www.on1.com/press/2265499/ Thu, 15 Jan 2026 18:03:36 +0000 https://www.on1.com/?post_type=press_releases&p=2265499 ON1 Effects 2026 is the fastest way to finish a photo—delivering professional results instantly, with the control photographers trust.

January 15th, 2026 — ON1 announces the release of ON1 Effects 2026. Designed to deliver professional results instantly, ON1 Effects 2026 is the fastest and most intuitive way for photographers to apply creative finishing effects—whether used as a standalone application or as a photo effects software plugin for Lightroom Classic and Photoshop.

ON1 Effects has always focused on helping photographers easily bring images to a finished, professional state. Version 2026 advances that promise with pro-level AI, refined workflows, and new creative filters that deliver immediate results while preserving full creative control.

Pro-Level Results

At the core of ON1 Effects 2026 is a significant advancement in masking—one of the most important steps in creative photo editing. New Subject and Background Masks allow photographers to isolate key areas of an image with a single click. These AI-powered masks are fast, accurate, and dependable, even in complex scenes, removing uncertainty from one of the most common editing tasks.

Masking now works as a layered system, allowing multiple masks to be stacked on any filter or adjustment. Each mask can be edited independently and combined using add, subtract, or intersect modes—making it easy to refine results or build complex selections without restarting or disrupting creative momentum.

Mask quality has also been improved across AI-based tools, including depth masks and Super Select AI. Edges are cleaner and more natural, even around fine details such as hair, foliage, and tree branches. The result is fewer artifacts, less manual cleanup, and results that feel complete as soon as they are applied.

Faster Workflows, Thoughtfully Designed

ON1 Effects 2026 introduces workflow enhancements that help photographers move efficiently from image to final look. The updated Add Filter dialog allows users to favorite filters, search more effectively, hide rarely used or legacy tools, and apply filters with AI masks more easily.

With fewer decisions and faster access to essential tools, photographers spend less time navigating menus and more time finishing images.

New Effects Starting Points further simplify the experience. Photographers can choose a default layout built around their most-used filters or select a starting point that mirrors workflows from applications like Lightroom Classic or Capture One. Filters begin in an off state, allowing photographers to activate only what they need and build edits with intention rather than distraction.

New Creative Filters with Immediate Impact

ON1 Effects 2026 introduces four new creative filters, each designed to deliver meaningful visual impact quickly and intuitively:

  • Depth Lighting Filter – Adjust foreground and background lighting after capture using advanced depth masking to guide attention naturally.
  • Split Field Filter — Recreate the look of a split diopter to balance wide-angle landscapes by bringing distant backgrounds closer.
  • Double Exposure Filter — Create expressive double exposures without complex layers. Control blending, protect subjects, or generate organic results instantly.
  • Motion Filter — Add intentional camera movement—pan, zoom, or twist—to introduce energy and simplify busy backgrounds.

Built for Editing—and Re-Editing

ON1 Effects 2026 remains fully re-editable, even when used as a plugin, allowing photographers to revisit and refine effects without rebuilding edits.

Support for grayscale images enables proper viewing and editing of legacy scans and grayscale files, while UI enhancements offer more flexible panel docking for improved workspace efficiency—especially on laptops. New Module Tips help first-time users get oriented quickly, and export improvements deliver faster performance with easier preset management.

Expanded camera and lens support ensures compatibility with the latest equipment, alongside continued support for a wide range of legacy gear.

Price and Availability

ON1 Effects 2026 is available today. Additional information, including price, full feature details, and system requirements, are available here.

ON1 Announces Photo RAW 2026 with Advanced AI Tools, Masking Layers, and New Creative Filters https://www.on1.com/press/on1-announces-photo-raw-2026-with-advanced-ai-tools-masking-layers-and-new-creative-filters/ Tue, 02 Sep 2025 16:07:42 +0000 https://www.on1.com/?post_type=press_releases&p=2261779 September 2, 2025 – Portland, OR — ON1 Inc. is excited to announce ON1 Photo RAW 2026, the latest version of its all-in-one RAW photo editor for professionals and enthusiasts. The new release, officially available this fall, delivers next-generation enhancements to three of the most-used editing areas—Resize AI, Masking, and Effects—while also introducing user experience updates, grayscale support, and expanded camera compatibility.

“Photo RAW 2026 isn’t just about adding new features,” said Dan Harlacher, VP of Product at ON1. “It’s about improving the core tools photographers rely on every day and making AI editing more flexible and reliable. From stunning super-resolution to the most accurate masks we’ve ever shipped, this release brings real-world value to every customer.”

Masking Overhaul: More Power, Easier to Use

The biggest masking update since Super Select AI gives photographers more control and speed when selecting and adjusting parts of an image. They can work faster, make more accurate selections, and achieve better results with less effort. The update includes:

  • One-click Subject & Background Masks: Photographers can easily isolate subjects or backgrounds for targeted adjustments.
  • New Mask Layers: Users can stack, combine, or subtract multiple masks for each layer or filter, providing full control without destructive edits.
  • Improved AI Edge Quality: Cleaner edges around hair, branches, and other complex shapes reduce the need for manual touch-ups.

New Effects & Filters: More Creativity, Less Complexity

ON1’s most popular module, Effects, is now easier and faster to use. Four all-new filters have been added, along with workflow improvements that help photographers find their favorites quicker, start with the look they want, and enjoy a smoother editing process from start to finish. The upgrade includes:

  • Depth Lighting: Adjust lighting and color of the foreground and background to emphasize subjects.
  • Split Field: Simulates a split diopter effect to enlarge backgrounds without losing wide-angle foregrounds.
  • Double Exposure: Allows photographers to quickly blend subjects with artistic backgrounds.
  • Motion Filter: Adds realistic camera movement (ICM) after the shot.
  • Favorites and Search in Add Filter Dialog: Customers can tag go-to filters, hide unused ones, and streamline filter selection.
  • Starting Point Presets: Offers options to mimic the look of Adobe® Lightroom® or Capture One®, or to set a personal default stack.

Resize AI 2026 — Now Fully Integrated in Photo RAW 2026

With Photo RAW 2026, Resize AI 2026 is built directly into the core application, giving every customer access to ON1’s most advanced super-resolution technology without needing a separate app or plugin.

Two brand-new AI models headline the integration:

  • 2026 Highest Quality Model – A state-of-the-art generative AI model that recreates fine details, restores sharpness, and removes noise and artifacts from even the smallest or lowest-quality images. Perfect for extreme crops, AI-generated art, or vintage photos that need restoration.
  • 2026 Standard Model – Optimized for speed and batch work, this model still outperforms previous versions when dealing with noisy or compressed input, making it ideal for large projects and older GPUs.

Photographers can now enlarge images, clean up noise, and add creative edits while keeping their workflows fully non-destructive.

“I have used a trial of ON1 Resize 2026 applied to various types of image from portraits to landscape and I am very impressed. Whilst I have used ON1 PhotoRaw for most of my editing since 2018, I have been using Topaz Photo AI for some years specifically for upscaling as the previous version of ON1 Resize introduced odd textured artifacts on smooth surfaces. My tests show this has been eliminated and the newest version of ON1 Resize 2026 BEATS Topaz by a country mile,” says Chris, a happy ON1 customer.

Other New Features and Experience Improvements

Beyond the major upgrades, Photo RAW 2026 includes a range of improvements designed to make editing faster, smoother, and more customizable for photographers. These updates benefit everything from working with older photos to personalizing the workspace. Highlights include:

  • Negative Mode: Ideal for photographers digitizing film negatives with interchangeable lens cameras—automatically inverts and color-corrects scans.
  • Grayscale Support: Native support for editing grayscale images from legacy cameras and scans.
  • UI Improvements: Popular panels can be docked on either side, tool panes floated, and workspaces customized with more control.
  • Improved Perspective Tools: Separate controls for horizontal and vertical keystoning, with automatic scaling to eliminate blank edges.
  • First-Run Experience: A guided onboarding process that helps new users, especially those migrating from other platforms, get started faster.
  • Expanded Camera Support: Sony RX1R III, Alpha 6400A, DSC-RX100M7A, OM System OM-5 II, Fujifilm X-E5, Panasonic Lumix DC-S1IIE, DMC-GX7MK2, DC-G97, DC-ZS99/TZ99, and more.

Price and Availability for This Fall

Customers can pre-order ON1 Photo RAW 2026 today at a special reduced price and begin using Photo RAW 2025 right away, with the upgrade to the 2026 version included at no additional cost when it is released this fall. ON1 Photo RAW 2026 provides a complete standalone photo editor, while the MAX Edition expands functionality by allowing photographers to run Photo RAW and all its tools as plugins inside Photoshop, Lightroom Classic, Apple Photos, Capture One, Affinity Photo, and Corel PaintShop Pro. The MAX Edition is also available through the Photo RAW MAX Subscription and the Everything Plus Subscription, which include future upgrades along with additional ON1 apps. A free 30-day trial will also be available at launch.

For photographers seeking a fast, powerful, and affordable Lightroom alternative with AI photo editing and non-destructive workflows, ON1 Photo RAW 2026 delivers a compelling option.

ON1 Celebrates 20 Years of Innovation in Photo Editing Software https://www.on1.com/press/on1-celebrates-20-years-of-innovation-in-photo-editing-software/ Wed, 04 Jun 2025 14:00:27 +0000 https://www.on1.com/?post_type=press_releases&p=2250047 PORTLAND, Ore., June 4, 2025 (Newswire.com) – ON1, a pioneer in professional photo editing software, proudly celebrates its 20th anniversary this month. For two decades, ON1 has empowered photographers with powerful editing tools that combine speed, flexibility, and creative control—earning the trust of its customers worldwide.

Founded in 2005 in Portland, Oregon, ON1 (formerly onOne Software) began by acquiring popular Photoshop plugins like Genuine Fractals and PhotoFrame. Over time, it transformed from a plugin developer into a full-featured editing platform, culminating in the launch of ON1 Photo RAW. The company has consistently led the way in creating software built specifically for photographers.

“We started ON1 to build tools that worked the way photographers think—not the way software forces them to think,” said Craig Keudell, ON1 founder and CEO. “That same mission still guides us 20 years later.”

Software Built with Photographers, Not Just for Them
At the core of ON1’s success is its commitment to listening. Through the ON1 Photo RAW Project, launched in 2016, the company has implemented nearly 1,000 user-submitted ideas, transforming feedback into actual features.

“Our users are part of the development process,” said Dan Harlacher, VP of Product. “That’s why our tools feel intuitive—because they’re shaped by people who shoot and edit every day.”

ON1’s suite includes advanced AI tools, such as Super Select AI, NoNoise AI, and Resize AI, along with workflow-enhancing features like layers, presets, masking, and mobile-to-desktop syncing.

A Passionate Team That Puts Users First
From support to product design, ON1’s culture is rooted in connection. Longtime team members, such as Jonny Davenport, a photographer and support lead, note that direct conversations with users often shape updates and improvements.

ON1’s lead educator, Dylan Kotecki, has helped thousands of photographers maximize the potential of ON1’s tools.
“Teaching users how to unlock their creativity and simplify their workflow—it’s incredibly rewarding,” said Kotecki.

The Road Ahead
As ON1 looks to the future, its focus remains on solving real-world problems for photographers. With innovations in AI, streamlined editing workflows, and deeper mobile integration, the next 20 years are already in motion.

“Twenty years in software is rare—twenty years with this kind of loyalty is even rarer,” said Patrick Smith, Senior VP and GM. “It’s a privilege to keep building for the community that got us here.”

About ON1
ON1 is a leading provider of photo editing software for photographers of all levels. Based in Portland, Oregon, ON1 Photo RAW and its suite of plugins help users create stunning images with speed, power, and complete creative control.

Revolutionizing Retouching with Generative AI and Depth-Aware Editing
ON1 Photo RAW 2025 introduces new and powerful generative AI features that enhance the content-aware capabilities of both the crop and new Generative Erase tools.

Automated Editing Tasks for Removing Common Distractions
The introduction of automatic detection and removal of common distractions, like sensor dust and power lines are also new features coming in this release.

Additionally, improvements to the new canvas dialog simplify the creation of layouts, making it easier to set common sizes and add your photos in one step.

Streamlined Organization
Photo organization will also be enhanced with the new Target Album feature, allowing users to set an album as a target and quickly add photos to the album with a shortcut key. This will help streamline sorting through extensive collections of images, making album management faster. To further enhance the organization of your photos, ON1 Photo RAW 2025 introduces Stacking. This feature is handy for organizing brackets, bursts, and other grouped shots, reducing clutter and speeding up the culling process.

What’s Coming Next
Looking forward, ON1 is excited to reveal several features and updates that will arrive soon after the initial release of version 2025 including an enhanced Generative Eraser that automatically detects and removes distractions like sensor dust, wires, vehicles, and people with a single click. You’ll also be able to point and click on objects for easy removal, thanks to new AI-powered object detection. Automatic Stacking will group similar images by visual likeness or capture times, streamlining your workflow. Additionally, Face Restoration from Resize will be available in Edit, allowing you to enhance small or out-of-focus faces with stunning, realistic detail, making it perfect for photo restoration.

New ON1 Photo RAW 2024.5 Update Coming in June! Big Performance Boost, New AI Masking, and More! https://www.on1.com/press/new-on1-photo-raw-2024-5-update-coming-in-june-big-performance-boost-new-ai-masking-and-more/ Thu, 23 May 2024 17:05:10 +0000 https://www.on1.com/?post_type=press_releases&p=2241380 ON1, the leading provider of innovative photo editing software applications, is excited to announce the upcoming release of ON1 Photo RAW 2024.5, a new update with huge performance gains and precision masking tools. This exciting update unleashes powerful new features designed to elevate the photo editing experience for photography professionals and enthusiasts.

New customers and those upgrading from previous ON1 versions can get ON1 Photo RAW MAX 2024.3 or Photo RAW 2024.3 at a discount today and will receive version 2024.5 for free once it is available.

“We strive to improve performance with every release. Usually, we can eke out a boost here and there which positively impacts your workflow. However, this update is the big one. It is the most pervasive performance boost we’ve had. You will feel it almost everywhere in Edit. Opening photos is faster, brushing is faster, and zooming is faster. If you work with many layers and filters, you will feel the difference,” says Dan Haracher, VP of product.

ON1 Photo RAW 2024.5 underscores ON1’s commitment to developing cutting-edge technologies that support photographers without compromising their creative vision and control.

WHAT’S NEW IN PHOTO RAW 2024.5

New and Improved Super Select AI – Our innovative point, click, and edit tool just got better. The enhanced Super Select AI tool can now identify and select any object, not just those it recognizes. This makes adjustments to areas like clothing, hair, skin, and individual flowers much faster. Simply click on an object or region, select an adjustment, and you’re done. No more creating layers and adding filters and masks.

New and Improved Quick Mask AI Tool – Similar to the Super Select AI tool, the upgraded Quick Mask AI tool offers point-and-click editing for masks, simplifying the blending of layers and filters.

Optimized Performance – This update brings the most significant performance boosts yet! Almost everything in Edit feels faster. Opening raw files is now up to twice as fast, making it almost instantaneous. Opening .ONPhoto files (your creations from HDR, Pano, or multiple layers) is over twice as fast. Zooming, panning, and brushing are now buttery smooth, even on complex photos with many layers and filters. These improvements result from innovative methods we’ve developed to utilize the GPU and reduce memory usage.

Smaller Installer and More Frequent Updates – This release also includes a re-engineered app and update delivery method. The product installer is now much smaller, making it faster to download and install. Upon launching the app, it automatically checks for updates and downloads any missing or updated components. This allows us to update camera support, AI models, and extra content more frequently, making updates much smaller.

Added Camera and Lens Support – As with all updates, support for new raw formats and profiles for the latest cameras and lenses.
