The "Look Inside" preview on Amazon includes the following phrase:
"...be sure to install the Color Efex 4 Promo 5 from Nik Software that comes
free with this book"
That might well be a reference to the offer here (apparently directed at
Smugmug users) of a full version for 15 days trial, together with full use
of five filters:
http://www.niksoftware.com/promotions/usa/index.php?view=colorefexpro4_promo
_edition/main.shtml
The five seem to be "Brilliance/Warmth" "Darken/Lighten Center" "Graduated
Neutral Density" "Indian Summer" and "Polarization"
Yes, I have seen the full price.
And yes, I do have Silver Efex version 1, bought as a special offer after
version 2 was released. I saw the full price!

Subject: Re: [OM] Good book with a wierd title
The review on Amazon says "The book also provides links to free NIK plug
Ins," whereas you mention "a pass to download Color Efex 4"
Can you clarify?
Have you seen the regular price of the Nik plugins!!!?
Thanks
