The first set contains photographic filters similar to those used in Adobe Photoshop. In fact, Photo Booth has two sets of image effects. The user can apply special effects while taking a picture by clicking on the “Effects” button. If the user clicks the large red button underneath the preview area, this will take a picture after an optional countdown. This simulates the user looking into a mirror, however there is an option to provide unreversed images. The results can be shown or played by double clicking on the thumbnails.īy default, Photo Booth‘s live preview and captured images are reversed horizontally. Thumbnails of saved photos and videos are displayed along the bottom of the window. Photo Booth displays a preview showing the camera’s view in real time.
