@TCD

Many thanks for the useful link !

However, I think I'm still after original Photogenics v.5 Or maybe v.4
original program full package !

@ macce2

I think this is as close as you're going to get to the original full package.

Then use Update 121 to get the last released version.

If the update process hangs/crashes, you may need to use some of the intermediate updates before updating to 121.

@Matt_H

Very nice, Thank You !!
I wonder how many (=few) copies of Photogenics (later versions) total was actually sold worldwide.

So, if I'd like to get myself an origiinal package, seems to be almost impossible.

However, what I mostly need now, is a fully working
graphics application for my Amiga 4000.

My current version of Photogenics seems to have some plugin files missing...
Hopefully, they will be found from those packages
linked and shared by you TCD & Matt_H !
Cheers!

I just noticed I have a boxed copy of Photogenics on my shelf. I bought it a while back and have not looked at it yet. Not sure which version it is, but it has multiple program disks. On the box it says it is for the A1200 and A4000. I will be getting my 1200 out of storage in the next week or two, so I can take a look.

That’s most likely Photogenics 1.x, possibly 2.x. Version 4.0 and higher were literally just a CD-R with an inkjet-printed label - nothing else.

Oh, that's cool !
I'll be eager to know more..

@Matt_H

Thanks for info.
That's a pity that so many cool Amiga applications
lacked a proper manual..
