After more than twenty years, Adobe is upgrading its main image-editing
application, this time around with an all new dark look, raw-image
editing, and also nondestructive cropping.
Even now, Photoshop
stays among one of the few must-have appsapps for digital media experts.
And it might be able to maintain that status by adding tools for
dealing with video, text layout, andas well as vector graphics.
Photoshop CS6 will not likely replace After Effects, Premiere, InDesign,
or Illustrator, but its completely new abilities will allow more work
to be achieved totally in Photoshop.
You will find a large number of additional features in Photoshop CS6. Allow me to share our absolute favorites:
Innovative interface. Photoshop 2012
has a new darkened interface. It's less disheveled and more structured.
Some might like the new look while others may possibly decline it, but
it is more contemporary. And also, since it is possible to control
precisely how dark the UI looks and can choose between four various UI
colors, there's almost certainly a setting which will suit everybody.
Camera
Raw 7.0. Raw image files contain the unaltered data captured by digital
camera models, before the processing that turns them into viewable
images. Photoshop CS6 adds support for Adobe Camera Raw 7.0, a plug-in
for editing raw image files. The settings section has been redone,
making it simpler to control settings for instance Highlights and
Shadows.
Content-Aware Move. Ever wished to remove someone from a
photo? That is what the Content Aware Fill application, presented in
Photoshop CS5, is capable of doing. In CS6, we have a variation on that
theme: Content-Aware Move, which enables you to pick an object inside a
single-layer image and transfer it somewhere else in the picture.
Photoshop will fill out the space created by moving the object, and does
so pretty well.
Blur Gallery. Tilt-shift is the new HDR. The
tilt-shift effect--which focuses onstresses a small in-focus area as
well as blurs nearby area to help make objects and folks appear to be
miniatures--can be completed making use of previous variations of
Photoshop, but CS6 makes it so much easier with a Blur Gallery that also
includes Tilt-Shift, Iris, and also Field Blur tools.
Adaptive
Wide Angle. This lens correction filter gives you the ability to control
the areas within your image that'll be subject to adjustment. All you
need to do is draw along a curved line of distortion and you will
straighten it, making the image look as though it absolutely was
obtained by using a unique lens.
To judge by those posting
comments in Adobe's support forum, Photoshop CS6 Beta is receiving
polite applause, with some grousing about Adobe's activation process,
its upgrade
policy, along with the deficiency of completely new killer features. On
Facebook, the comments are more effusive and appreciative. For
