Tight integration with Adobe After Effects provides bouncing
particles on 3D layers,
emitting particles from layers and lights and using a layer
as custom particle. Comp-camera aware and 16bit of course!
The physics engine includes air resistance, gravity and
turbulence, providing very realistic particle motion. The
keyframable Physics Time Factor gives you full control
over time so you can freeze time and move the camera around
in a scene.
New features in 1.5 include Depth of Field and Motion Path. Read
more about them here.

Reviews
"Particular is stunning.
It’s beautifully put
together and the creative possibilities are endless. As of now, all other third-party
particle systems are redundant; if you’ve got After Effects, go out and
buy this as soon as you can." Read the full
review.
