When it comes to holiday movies, you should either get a HD camera, or nothing. Well, some people have older models, and since "older" could mean less than a year, as well as a 10-years camcorder that you won't ever throw away ("oldies, but goldies", you know...), sometimes you need to get a little help from your computer. After all, there's nothing better than giving small retouches to your holiday movies and shots, to make them better, don't you think?

It is interesting to see that a company from Graz, Austria, entitled a computer program M.I.R., just like the Russian space station launched back in 1986... but let's get to the M.I.R. software now, shall we? Available for both Windows and Mac OS X, M.I.R. 1.3 is an application able to provide "a powerful solution for manual dust busting and any other kind of single image defects retouching issues".
To make a longer story short, it's enough to say that M.I.R. can fix dust spots, bad splices, tears and the like with only a few clicks, and this program's capabilities go as far as allowing you to work with 2K and even higher resolutions, with the help of the built-in smart caching and micro-loop technologies.
Basically, this software is about click & fix movie processing, but you can also work on individual frames, and let's not forget about one of those old problems that many people had at least once - you go somewhere, shoot some footage, then you want to print some pictures, but the movie quality is simply disappointing. I've been there too, and apart from jumping between a bunch of printer reviews, trying to find the best one for my purpose, I had no solution, because fixing the footage wasn't quite an option. From now on...I know what to use, because M.I.R. is the perfect tool for occasional users like me, but you can also employ it for professional tasks.
At last, you should know that the demo versions have 42MB (
Windows), respectively 39MB (
Mac OS X), and to find out more about the pricing, you should contact the producer, using
