Is this not just the same as an adjustment layer with a black mask on it and then painting it in?😅

@7rollface 5 месяцев назад

Yeah. I'm really struggling to see the point of this. It doesn't even look like it saves you any clicks. In fact, you have to *undo* the settings that it auto-populates with, so it's *less* efficient. If this video is really representative of what it is and what it can do, then it seems completely redundant.

@silekiernanphotography 5 месяцев назад

Yes, and Aaron pointed that out. It's a bit like Lightroom or ACR.

@castielvargastv7931 5 месяцев назад

It is easier and more logical. I like it

@davirosa 5 месяцев назад

WOW! Nothing special, Adobe!

@helensotiriadis 5 месяцев назад

Meh -- it doesn't add functionality and probably limits/confuses beginners

@PJZ 5 месяцев назад

I’m with you that it’s an odd edition to the toolset. You’ve got to make a selection that probably isn’t a perfect selection. Then you get values you probably don’t want to use. Think it might be useful if it were somehow less steps than traditional brush+adj layer and layer mask.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us!

I will probably never use this tool. As a Photoshop user for over 10 years, I don't understand why I should change my trusted ways, in which I am also fast. Maybe new users would use it. But even here, I don't know why new users would choose this tool over the old ways. It doesn't seem faster or easier to me.

@phlearn 5 месяцев назад

Hi Anna, Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! It can definitely be tough to switch up your workflow after using something successfully for so long. For seasoned veterans like yourself, using adjustment layers and masks is probably second nature, and that might still be the fastest way for you to work. The Adjustment Brush could be a good option to try on a project where you just need to make some quick, localized tweaks. It's non-destructive just like adjustment layers, so you can always go back and refine things later. Ultimately, the best tools are the ones you know best. Stick with what makes your editing workflow efficient!

haha how is this considered a new feature? You could do this for several years now. It's just a fancy wrapper for an existing feature.

@EngineFD223 3 месяца назад

I think it would be more useful if it worked like masking does in Lightroom and ACR. Where instead of just select subject you can make masks for skin, clothes, eyes, iris, lips, teeth, etc... and then use an adjustment layer for whichever masks you wanted.

@ghiekorg 3 месяца назад

Thank you for this. I just saw this has been added to the official release. TBH I find it quite useless and, although might be good for beginners, it also creates another big problem that affects photoshop a lot, in my opinion: too many tools are doing the exact same thing or almost. This is extremely confusing for beginners, who start to spin searching for "why tool X is different than tool Y". I would like to actually see adobe deleting lots of the useless tools photoshop still has and make it a bit more straight forward to understand. Other softwares, without making any names, seem to be more "direct". It's nice that they are trying to always add something but, honestly, who ever needed this tool?

@jokenadrian 4 месяца назад

This shows the lack of innovation that Adobe has. This feature has existed for over 10 years haha what a joke

@derrapf 5 месяцев назад

Hmm. I do not see the difference between using the adjustment layers and paint white and black in there.... No real advantage, isn't it?

@mdsullivan714 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the "blend if" explanation again. Need to use it more. I'm a retoucher and use color fill a lot for product colors but tends to make highlights a bit unrealistic and the blend if will help a ton with that.

@DevonChristopherAdams 5 месяцев назад

I do agree with your critiques. I find myself going into ACR frequently to grab something like hair or clothes. I was going to say how similar this tool is to the ACR/LRCC brush adjustments, but then it's limited. I also use curves a lot so that's a con for me, too. I like this for a new user as you said. I was looking at what you were doing w/ this new brush tool and kept thinking I could do it quicker (especially the last one) manually in PS but had to remind myself you were demoing this on purpose - especially for newer uses. This is why I've always loved Phlearn. There's something for noobs (me a dedade ago) & power users (me now). Thanks again, Aaron.

@alexmangorove 4 месяца назад

I watched like half of the video and don't think I saw brush used once.

@ChristopherSisk 5 месяцев назад

This doesn't seem much like working with a "brush" but just a long-way to get to an adjustment layer. It would have been nice to see it in use as a brush, if that's what it actually does. What happens if you don't select the subject first? Can you brush in your adjustment mask? idk.. as is, it doesn't seem like a tool I would reach for much.

@jaspergoodall3206 2 месяца назад

Yet another wholly pointless update by Adobe.

@thewebstylist 5 месяцев назад

@Gwennie363 5 месяцев назад

Unless they're planning on expanding this to mimic masking in acr (but have the mask editable - which would be great) this is a useless tool imo and seems to pander to new usere. Which is fine, but PS is a pro tool, I want pro features, not Adobe scrambling around trying to capture more of the mobile plug-play market. This adds nothing new ... I could create an action to do the exact same thing in minutes unless I'm missing something here..?

@phlearn 4 месяца назад

Hey there! The Adjustment Brush is aimed at a more user-friendly workflow, but we understand the desire for advanced masking features like in ACR. It could be a good option to try it on a project where you just need to make some quick, localized tweaks. It's non-destructive just like adjustment layers, so you can always go back and refine things later. Ultimately, what matters the most is what works for your own workflow ☺

@jymlewis 3 месяца назад

Thanks! Great video. But at 10:16 you just zoomed out on the image really quickly. How did you do that so fast?

@phlearn 3 месяца назад

Hey there! You can press Ctrl/Command + 0 on your keyboard to zoom out completely at once

@mvia236 Месяц назад

Two ways of doing the same thing.

@edaleman7260 4 месяца назад

why is it when I tried to use it in the updated PS version it gave me a weird halo effect around my subject? It was weird. I tried it on one of my images last night and no bueno

@phlearn 4 месяца назад

Hey there! You might have to adjust the settings of the brush, to get a more precise result.

@brendangoodenough173 3 месяца назад

I don't see any benefit over the traditional way, and it has extra click to attain the same results...

@phlearn 3 месяца назад

Hey there!This tool is perfect for beginners! For more advanced users, traditional tools might be a better fit.

@rolandrick 5 месяцев назад

I don’t get it. All of this I can already do with a normal adjustment layer also, can’t I?

@phlearn 5 месяцев назад

Indeed! This tools is more for beginners and quick adjustments :)

@mountart2 Месяц назад

Not sure I'm understanding how this adjustment brush tool is different or more productive then just using select subject and applying an adjustment?

@phlearn Месяц назад

Hey there! The Adjustment Brush tool offers a more precise way to target specific areas of your image with adjustments, compared to selecting the entire subject. This can help you achieve more nuanced and localized effects.

@mountart2 Месяц назад

@@phlearn Hmmm, still not buying it. I can select a specific portion of an image and then adjust it. Still not seeing how the Adj Brush makes this faster, more productive or better.

@ravondal1958 5 месяцев назад

Disappointing!! :(

@DevonChristopherAdams 5 месяцев назад

Why do you think that? If you're a pro-user, could you see this as beneficial for newer users? I can.

@mattcurr9931 5 месяцев назад

just having the selection tools from ACR would be a godsend, or at least just an easy way to transfer the masks to PS.

@simisaha6767 22 дня назад

Still the best!

@magbhitu 5 месяцев назад

why do we need this as a brush? - its the same thing as an action setting up an adjusment layer with a mask.

@phlearn 5 месяцев назад

Hey there! You can achieve similar results with adjustment layers, but the Adjustment Brush is a real time-saver, especially for smaller, localized adjustments.

My first thought is that the feature is essentially available in LR. Maybe not 1:1, but the result is the same. Otherwise, I like it. Thanks for this video.

@thearabicdp 5 месяцев назад

Was just going to say that. They should bring the remove tool from Photoshop to lightroom and that way I won't even need Photoshop anymore.

It is pretty much the same as the LR adj brushes, but definitely not as robust.

@unabyband1263 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for this video, Aaron. Actually - you are right, this new brush looks quite obsolete for whose who've been using regular layers masking for years. But, yeah - it would be quite intriguing if Adobe will add some brand new features in this brush later. Good luck 🙃
