  • Client preview window - The new preview mode displays your work on a second monitor, with PhotoKey’s interface hidden. Ideal for attracting customers at live events and providing clients with a glimpse of the finished image.
  • Intelligent keying - PhotoKey has always had the highest quality green screen keying. PhotoKey 7 Pro is smarter, identifying your background color with more accuracy and a built-in awareness of common photographic setups.
  • Retina compatibility - PhotoKey 7 Pro fully embraces Retina displays, delivering a beautiful, high resolution interface on Mac.
  • Raw import - You can now import your RAW images directly into PhotoKey 7 Pro, without needing to convert beforehand.
  • Export to FTP - You can now export and upload images via FTP from inside PhotoKey, introducing new options for automating your entire workflow.
  • Hot folder enhancements - PhotoKey automatically displays the most recent image in your hot folder, so that you can get an instant preview of your green screen composite while you shoot without needing to go back to your computer. Works perfectly when combined with the new client preview feature.
