LightZone is a non-destructive RAW editor. Once created, a style is easily applied to multiple images, allowing those standard camera compensations to be applied to every image before the photographer ever views or edits it. Using styles, photographers make and save their own preferred compensations for each RAW image based upon camera specific characteristics. LightZone can create and apply pre-determined image transformations, called "styles", to an entire batch of images in a single operation.
LightZone edits both RAW and JPEG format images. While effectively identical in terms of features to the previous proprietary version (v3.9.x) this release was cast as v4.0.0 to distinguish it as the first under the free BSD-3-Clause license. In June 2013, new packages of LightZone were released for Linux, Mac OSX, and Microsoft Windows platforms. On 22 December 2012, the LightZombie domain was redirected to the new site, and an announcement was made by Anton Kast (one of the original authors of LightZone) that they had negotiated to release the original LightZone source as free software. On-going LightZone support, including updates to let LightZone process Raw files from new camera models, was being provided by the volunteer LightZombie Project.

The final version from Light Crafts was version 3.9, except for Mac OS X which had a bug-fix version 3.9.2. It was reported that Fabio Riccardi, founder of Light Crafts and the primary developer of LightZone, was now working as an Apple employee, as evidenced by his LinkedIn profile. In mid-September, 2011, the Light Crafts website went offline without notice. Although the Linux version was free of charge in earlier versions, its price was adapted with the 3.5 release. Versions for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux were available commercially.
