Every so often a giveaway lands that is actually worth interrupting your day for. This is one of them. Franzis — the German software house behind a whole shelf of respected photo tools — has teamed up with CHIP to release its Photo-Video Toolbox as a free full version. That’s not one program. It’s six, each doing a different job, and together they’d normally set you back close to €100.
I’ve claimed plenty of Franzis freebies over the years for the site, so I know the drill can get a little fiddly with the two-email confirmation dance. Below is the shortcut version, cleaned up and tested on my own PC so you don’t hit the dead ends I did.
⚡ Quick Read — the whole thing in 20 seconds
- What you get: six full Franzis apps — Zoom, LUT, LUT Video, DIVE, DIVE Video and SHARPEN Video
- Cost: €0 (normally around €100 combined)
- Platform: Windows 10 & 11, installers in English or German
- Licence: lifetime, six separate serial keys under one User-ID
- Time needed: under five minutes, start to finish
What’s actually inside the toolbox?
The bundle leans into two things Franzis does well — squeezing more quality out of imperfect footage, and giving you creative control without a Photoshop-sized learning curve. Here’s the rundown:
- Zoom #1 — enlarges a photo way past its native size while keeping edges crisp. Handy when you want to blow up a shot to poster or banner scale without it turning into mush.
- SHARPEN Video #1 — pulls detail back into soft or older clips, so footage from a dated phone or action cam suddenly looks a class above.
- LUT #1 — lifts a colour look from one image and drops it onto another in a couple of clicks. You can also bake your own filters and batch them across a folder.
- LUT Video #1 — the same colour-grading idea, but for video. Raw clips go in, styled footage comes out.
- DIVE #1 — built specifically for underwater photos, with nine presets and water-depth settings to fix that murky blue-green cast.
- DIVE Video #1 — does the same rescue job for underwater video, using the same specialised engine.
If you shoot, edit, or just enjoy tinkering with images and clips, there’s almost certainly one tool here that earns a permanent spot on your drive. And since each is a standalone install, you’re free to grab only the ones you’ll use.
Step 1 — Request your free serial keys
Head to the single Franzis registration page for this promo:
https://reg.franzis.de/reg/FVT-22417000/999999999/0/502/1.3/3/en
Type in your email, tick the consent box, clear the “I’m not a robot” check, and hit Send. Within a minute or two an email arrives from Franzis GmbH (the sender shows as registrierung@sw.franzis.de). Open it and click the link inside.
That page lists your User-ID and six individual registration keys — one each for Zoom, LUT, DIVE, SHARPEN Video, LUT Video and DIVE Video. The same details are emailed to you as a backup, so you won’t lose them if the tab closes.
Step 2 — Download the installers from CHIP
The programs live on CHIP’s download page here:
chip.de/download/…/vollversion-franzis-foto-video-toolbox
On that page, click Manual installation, wait a couple of seconds, then click the big Download button. This pulls down a single ZIP (around 560 MB) that holds everything — no CHIP wrapper installer to fuss with.
Prefer to skip the clicks? This direct link goes to the same file:
securedl.chip-downloads.de/…/31517-5_FRANZIS-Foto-Video-Toolbox_winde.zip
Step 3 — Unzip, install and activate
Extract the ZIP and you’ll find six setup files (plus a stack of PDF install guides). Each installer covers one program and lets you choose English or German at the start.
Run a setup, finish the install, then open the program. When it asks you to activate, paste in the matching serial key from Step 1 and click Activate. Repeat for each app you want. That’s genuinely all there is to it — the licence is permanent once activated.
✅ The Verdict
Six real, no-expiry tools for the cost of an email is about as good as free software gets. Zoom and SHARPEN Video alone justify the five minutes; the LUT and DIVE pairs are a bonus if you grade footage or shoot underwater. Nothing here is crippled or watermarked — these are the full versions.
Bottom line: if you touch photos or video even occasionally, claim it now. Giveaways like this run on Franzis’s schedule, not yours, and they do end. Grab your free keys →
