From Negative to Final
All in One App
Import scanned or camera-captured negatives with automatic cast removal. Non-destructive editing, dust healing and framed output — the complete film workflow, all in NegRGB.
From Scan to Output, in One Flow
Import, convert, edit, heal, export — the complete film post-production loop in a single app.
Import
Drag in TIFFs from your scanner or RAW files from your camera rig — photos file themselves into film rolls, as natural as archiving your negatives.
- —TIFF, DNG and all major RAW formats
- —Drag-and-drop import, organized by roll
- —Scanner and camera capture alike
Convert
Casts are removed automatically on import. A density-space algorithm rooted in photographic science simulates optical enlargement, restoring the true colors and tones of your film.
- —Automatic cast removal, out of the box
- —Three precise controls: Dmax, Contrast, Center
- —32-bit float pipeline, high precision throughout
Edit
Exposure, independent RGB channels, density curves, layered masks, crop & rotate — every common tool is here, and every adjustment is non-destructive.
- —Independent RGB exposure & gamma
- —Local adjustments with masks
- —Crop, vignette, sharpen, dehaze
Heal
Hold Ctrl and click to erase spots, paint to heal scratches, or hold Ctrl+Alt and click both ends of a straight scratch to heal it in one stroke. Let the scanner's infrared channel detect dust across the whole roll, and GPU-accelerated inpainting makes every defect vanish.
- —Click to erase spots, paint to heal scratches
- —Ctrl+Alt straight-line scratch repair
- —Infrared dust detection
- —GPU-accelerated smart fill
Export
Finish your work with frames and text, then batch-export the whole roll. 8/16-bit TIFF, PNG, JPEG and 10-bit HEIC with full ICC color management, ready for print and share.
- —Frames & overlay elements
- —Copy params, batch-export the roll
- —TIFF / PNG / JPG / HEIC formats
Density Space Processing
Unlike traditional RGB inversion, NegRGB works in the density domain
Traditional negative conversion methods perform inversion directly in RGB color space, ignoring the physical characteristics of film. NegRGB uses a density-space processing algorithm that converts scan data into the density domain, simulating the principles and process of optical enlargement — resulting in more accurate color reproduction.
Maximum Density
Controls the density value at the deepest point of the film, determining the overall brightness of the photo.
Density Contrast
Adjusts the slope of the density curve, controlling the overall contrast of the photo.
Density Center
Sets the midpoint of the density curve, influencing the brightness and tonal character of the photo.
Non-destructive by design
Every adjustment in NegRGB is stored as parameters — your original files are never touched. Experiment freely: every step is reversible, and any moment in your edit history is one click away.
Parametric Adjustments
Adjustments are recorded as parameters, never baked into pixels. Your original scans stay pristine.
Full Edit History
A Lightroom-style history panel lets you step back through every edit on every photo.
Reusable Parameters
Dial in one frame, paste the look onto the rest of the roll for a consistent style.
Your entire film archive, in one folder
A film repository is just an ordinary folder on your disk: every roll, photo, adjustment and cache lives inside it. No proprietary database, no cloud lock-in — your data stays in your hands.
- —Organize photos by roll: repository → film → photos, clear at a glance
- —Each roll's settings and cache live inside the roll's own folder, traveling with it
- —To migrate, just copy the folder — every adjustment survives the move
Copy this one folder, take the whole repository with you
Every tool your workflow needs
From conversion to final output, NegRGB covers every step of film post-production — you will hardly ever need Photoshop, Lightroom or Capture One again.
