DF Studio v4 to v5 Transition

At PhotoPlus Expo, DigitalFusion proudly released DF Studio Version 5, a major update to its DF Studio system.

As a result of the significant changes in user experience and knowing that DF Studio users have come to rely on the system for speedy and effecient editing and image delivery, DigitalFusion has decided to take a hands-on approach to migrating users from Version 4 to Version 5. Over the coming weeks, DigitalFusion will be personally contacting all Version 4 users to schedule time to review the new features, provide access to tutorial and help material and schedule an appropriate time to update the account that minimizes the impact on the user's photography business. We believe this approach will provide the smoothest transition for our users.

Additional information about the transition is included in the FAQ below and if you have further questions please contact us.

  1. My login isn't working?

    In making both Version 4 and Version 5 available DigitalFusion has made use of two URLs:

    For accounts created before October 22, 2008 should login to Version 4 until the account is transitioned and for accounts created after October 22, 2008, users should login to Version 5. After the transition is complete all URLs will point to the new Version 5.

  2. Must I transition from Version 4 to Version 5?

    Yes, after all users have been transitioned to Version 5 DigitalFusion will stop hosting Version 4 and it will no longer be available.

  3. Will I lose any images or data?

    No, the transition from Verison 4 to Version 5 has been designed to ensure that no images or data will be lost.
