It’s Online and Totally Free!
Because of the high number of downloads of the Microsoft Excel version of our Estimator, we’ve just launched a new and improved version you can access right from within your web browser – no download required.
Why You Should Care
It’s important to make smart decisions or your business could easily stagnate instead of flourish – especially these days. Yet I’m constantly surprised at the number of photographers who haven’t done the math, or fail to truly explore whether outsourcing their post-production would be appropriate for their situation. After all, ignoring any potential business improvements that may provide a cost advantage is not a good idea.
We’ve Done the Work, You Have the Easy Part
Just plug in 7 numbers that I’m sure you know off the top of your head and you’ll have an answer. The Estimator will make all of the calculations for you. What have you got to lose?

Our Basic color correction is a great option for anyone needing a quick turn around time and a solid proof-quality color correction. That, combined with the convenience of image upload and download and a lower price make this an attractive option when time is of the essence, but you still need great quality.
Here’s how you place a Basic Color Correction order:
It’s simple, just follow these steps after downloading our ROES Ordering Application.
- Click the “Catalog” dropdown in the middle of the left panel of the application window and select the “Color Correction” option.
- The center panel will change to the “Color Correction” option.
- In the bottom of the right panel, click the “Folder” button and navigate to the folder containing your JPEG images.
- Drag the JPEG images you want color corrected into the blue “Color Correction Drop Box” square in the middle panel of the application. You can do this multiple times if necessary to add images to your order.
- You can click “Review Order” in the bottom of the middle panel to review and complete your order.
That’s it! Within 1-3 days you will receive an email that the corrections are complete and ready for download.
