this is the review from PCMag, full version of the review is here

Everyone knows that Adobe Photoshop can work miracles with old, faded, and poorly exposed images, but fixing the color and tonal balance of such an image takes time. Two new Photoshop plug-ins ($50 each) can make the fixes in just a few clicks.

Applied Science Fiction's Digital ROC and Digital SHO install as Photoshop filters. Digital ROC operates primarily on the image's color balance, and it works well with images that have a strong color cast, faded colors from aging, or incorrect colors from poor lighting conditions. Digital SHO operates on the image's exposure balance, restoring detail lost because of strong over- or underexposure.

Installation takes only a few minutes, and both filters work with all versions of Photoshop from 5.0 on (including Photoshop Elements), as well as with Adobe PhotoDeluxe 4.0 and later. Operation couldn't be much simpler. To repair an image, just open the image file and select Digital ROC or Digital SHO from the Filters menu. Both filters provide a preview window, so you can see the effect of the filter before you apply the filter to the image.

The ROC preview window has three slider bars that let you fine-tune the color balance, and the SHO filter has two sliders that control the brightness and color saturation of the final image.

We used both filters on a variety of otherwise unusable digital images and were stunned by the results. Digital ROC was able to correct the color balance of just about everything we tried it with, including scans of faded slides and digital-camera images taken with the wrong white-balance setting. Digital SHO salvaged an amazing amount of detail from some severely underexposed images taken in poor light. Digital SHO can't truly perform miracles, however: It can't recover lost detail in severely overexposed images with blown-out highlights.

Our first impression was that these filters don't do anything that a skilled Photoshop user couldn't do, but we were wrong: Both filters consistently produced better images than we could produce manually—and in a fraction of the time. Both are excellent and affordable tools for your Photoshop arsenal.
