Need to know
Good points
Excellent range of features. Excellent or very good performance for most corrections in our test. Very easy to use with easily controllable tools.
But
No automatic corrections other than red-eye correction. No instruction book (though instructions are available online).
Comment
Free program that rivals the top pay-programs. Equally useful for novice and advanced users. Gimp 2.6 is now available and offers more automatic image correcting tools than its predecessors.
