Review by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder
CaptureWizPro Screen Capture, by PixelMetrics is a powerful program for capturing not only your screen and graphics images, but audio and video as well! The program has an intuitive user interface and is easy-to-use. To me, that makes it perfect for both new and experienced users. I really like the interface because it gives you lots of options, and I like options. Like similar programs you can fire it up using a hot key. Ahh, but if you want the program will put up a "capture bar" that disappears when you don't need it. Slick!
The tools composing CaptureWizPro Screen Capture appear and are visible to you no matter what color background you have. From there, the program actually guides you through the steps to do your screen capture.And it knows no fear, it could capture everything I tried it on,including some screen savers, which some similar products can't capture.I found that it could also capture menu items and drop-down menus, which some programs can't grab either. You can save captures in a variety of ways. You can save to files in a number of popular formats including JPG, GIF, BMP, and PNG. You can also print, send your capture to a"sticky note" that will sit on your desktop, or even put it in the clipboard. Very nice.
With disappearing capture menu CaptureWizPro Screen Capture makes it easy to change capture options on-the-fly. You don't have to go into a setup area, you can just click the option you want and viola, you have it. You can capture a region, a window, the whole screen, and even a very long or wide screen. And the "sticky note" option is verycool and innovative. For example, you can see something of interest on a Web page, capture it to a sticky note and read it later. You can easily email your captures as well because the program has an option that will attach your captures to an email message.
Need an image editor? CaptureWizPro comes with one built right in. The program is impressive to me because it has a number or really original and innovative features. It gives you lots of options and it's so easy-to-use. You can capture video off your desktop, the Internet and more. And if you want, you can record audio on-the-fly as well. With a microphone hooked up you can record quick notes to yourself and listen to them later. Very neat.
CaptureWizPro is an impressive program that's loaded with cool features. It has all the things you'd expect from a "screen capture"program, and many things you wouldn't expect. I like it so much that it's not just a Pick, but I'm also making it one of my Dr. File Finder Favorites and those are few and far between. So, if you want to capture screens, audio, video, and lots more, check it out. I recommend it.
