It has Unsharp Mask and Levels adjustments. The 2 tools that I used the most on PS.

Here's more information on the features, taken from Microsoft's website:

50 New filters including tapestry & backlit provide over 200 ways turn your photos into art.

I have both PS and Image pro on my pc and I use PS 95% for post processing my pics.

The other 5 % on Image pro mainly for spots/particle removal and adding lens flares on the fly.

In another words, the Image pro complements the PS. Got my

copy from JB.
