LightZone was a product developed and sold by a company called Light Crafts which went out of business in 2011 leaving a sizable community of enthusiastic users potentially high-and-dry. These tools put LightZone in a class by itself for working with black-and-white imagery. Some are inspired by the Zone System, and some are inspired by HDR tone-mapping. While many of LightZone's tools are standard fare, it offers some unusual ones for tonal control - meaning brightness, contrast, shadows, highlights, etc. LightZone operates in a 16-bit linear color space with the wide gamut of ProPhoto RGB. A tool stack can be copied to a batch of photos at one time. It's a non-destructive editor, where any of the tools can be re-adjusted or modified later - even in a different editing session. Rather than using layers as many other photo editors do, LightZone lets the user build up a stack of tools which can be rearranged, turned off and on, and removed from the stack.

If you lust after Adobe Lightroom but are not keen to lay out the $149 that Adobe is asking for the version 5 software then there's a free open source project that you just have to check out called LightZone.
