SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — Action video can be exciting but, at the same time, it can be a hot, janky mess. Whether shot on a GoPro camera attached to a skateboard or a 4K camera on an aerial drone, action video can be a lot less than perfect. Video problems can include fisheye warp, camera shakes, and washed out colors; all defects that can make the video nearly unwatchable. ProDrenalin V2+ is the answer providing enhanced video stabilization and CMOS distortion correction, enhanced fisheye removal, automated image cleanup, storyboarding, and video filter effects along with enhanced NLE-like workflow and editing tools making it easy to transform janky video into cinematic gold.
When introduced in 2013, ProDrenalin V1 was revolutionary. It was the first video editing software specifically developed to address action camera-related problems such as warped and or distorted video caused by super-wide angle lenses; shaking and wobble; dull, washed out color; and un-sharp, grainy-looking video. ProDrenalin V1 could rescue the worst video and make it usable, and make so-so video, fantastic. The latest version of the software, ProDrenalin V2 Plus, builds on the first version's groundbreaking technology by incorporating the advanced Mercalli V4 stabilization technology (previously a separate application) along with totally new features including automatic image cleanup, storyboarding, the ability to apply video effects to clips, and enhanced and editable camera profiles for more precise fisheye warp removal.
"ProDrenalin V1 changed the face of action cam and drone video forever," said Robert DeMoulin, CEO of proDAD, Inc. "ProDrenalin V2+ is set to do it again with new capabilities that include automated cleanup tools, the ability to add effects to a video, storyboarding, and a whole lot more. The goal of ProDrenalin V2+ is to be an easy-to-use suite of tools for quickly fixing the problems that you often find in action cam and drone video before transferring to an NLE or posted on social media."

- Enhanced Color Correction – Extensive professional grade color correction with a histogram display for monitoring changes is included in ProDrenalin V2+.
- Enhanced Camera Profiles – Removing unwanted fisheye warp from video and still images is more precise with ProDrenalin V2 Plus, which provides fully re-worked camera profiles for most popular action cameras, drones, and DSLR cameras. You can also edit camera profiles to create profiles for unsupported cameras.
