Color Balance
I really like color correcting stills in Photoshop with the Color Balance filter that has controls for shadows mids and highs with slider that transition between CMY and RGB. This combination always seems to work for me. Now Color Finess has excellent controls and includes this type of Color Balance control…but it’s nearly $600.
I do not want the typical RGB color balance with sliders that either add or subtract RGB values. I’m looking more for the Photoshop workflow in a simple interface. Anyone know of such a tool.
BTW, I find myself using the Nattress film effect filters for most CCOR work. I rarely need much more, except for the color balance I described above. Any leads appreciated.

the After effects plugin of the same name ,”Adjust -> Color Balance” is functionally identical to the Photoshop one.
It has a different GUI: you see all 9 sliders at the same time and they’re not labelled cyan – 0 – red etc. just Red Color Balance“Adjust Image -> Color Balance (HLS)” is more of a very simple Photoshop “Hue/Saturation” without coloration and without a range selector.
Don’t confuse the both !
Also if you have the AE6.5 installer cd, Color Finesse is included on the cd via a seperate installer (along with other stuff such as 3D assistants lite etc.)
If you don’t have 6.5, upgrade! It’s great value.

I have 6.5 wasn’t aware of the Color Finess install….Actually I posted this in the wrong forum, because I can do all the color correction in AE, I really need the plugin for Final Cut Pro!
Sorry guys…thanks for the info,
