Hi folks!

I'm looking for a .NET image processing component or an open source alternative to automate the following tasks:

  • Photo capture (webcams and photo cameras)

  • Photo printing (grid/strip modes)

  • Applying photo effects

  • Saving photos

AtalaSoft DotImage is quite expensive, any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks J

You should check out the AForge library, it's free, open source and has a large list of features and applications.

There's also a nice article on The Code Project about it, see Image Processing Lab in C#

I haven't used AForge, but I've seen it mentioned a bit on this topic. My choice would be one of the OpenCV wrappers like EMGU.
