Poser 13’s PostFX suite is like having a mini editing studio built right into your render engine. No external software is needed as everything happens right inside Poser.  
 
There is a real-time preview so you can see your changes instantly and tweak a render on the fly and then choose to save the postworked version as well as the original.
 
The sliders and presets are user friendly - no tech headaches - just intuitive controls that let you focus on creativity.

A detailed overview is provided in the online documentation which explains each effect thoroughly with examples:  Applying Post Effects to Renders 
 

Best Practices for Using PostFX in Poser 13
  • Start subtle, then dial it up.  Begin with low-intensity settings for effects like bloom or denoise.  
  • Gradually increase values to avoid over-processing and maintain realism.
  • Use Exposure to correct overly bright or dark renders and save time - no need to tweak lights and render again.
  • Saturation can be used to control mood with richer tones or more faded ones.
  • Avoid stacking too many heavy effects - they can muddy the final image.
  • Make sure your scene is well-lit and balanced before applying effects as PostFX can't fix poor lighting.
  • Choose 2-3 complementary effects that serve your artistic goal and use them for consistency across themed renders.
Use PostFX as part of your creative process—not just a finishing touch. It’s designed to be fast, fun, and flexible, so you can experiment without fear of ruining your render!
