LightZone Linux 3.3 is now here!

Improved Zone System tools
Linux users will now enjoy access to LightZone’s improved Zone System Tools,which can produce photos of exceptional exposure and tonal ranges. The Zone Finder Tool helps users find similar exposure areas within a photo, while the Zone Mapper, which adjusts these tonal groups to desired levels.

LightZone Re-Light Tool creates High Dynamic Range (HDR) Images from a single exposure
Linux users will especially enjoy access to the new LightZone Relight Tool l which can achieve HDR effects from a single negative revealing hidden HDR detail in both the highlights and the shadows, using just a single exposure. For instance, you’ll see both saturated colors of a sunset and bright detail in the face of a back lit subject that was formerly lost. Achieving such stunning results from a single exposure without LightZone would require multiple flashes, reflectors and shades at the time the photograph -- if it could be possible at all.
