Stack Lightroom 6 next to the price of a new lens, or even a new filter, and it’s an easy upgrade to justify. While the new HDR and panorama capabilities are currently a bit basic, it’s inspiring to have the options at your fingertips – and we suspect a fair few switchers will soon be wondering how they ever got by without editable filter masks and the new facial-recognition tools. In itself, Lightroom 6 doesn’t add up to a revolutionary update, but it does improve on what was already an exceptional piece of software. More commonly associated with the likes of Picasa and Facebook, it’s a feature that may seem superfluous to most serious snappers – but for those who cover weddings or celebrity events, it could be a tremendous time-saver. This means you can easily – for example – drag down a graduated filter to add depth and vibrancy to a drab sky, then manually mask out any protruding trees and buildings, to keep their natural exposure and tone.Īnother easily overlooked addition is automatic facial recognition, and the accompanying “Find similar faces” function.

Again, the output is a DNG, so you can use Lightroom’s processing tools to non-destructively punch up the resulting image.ĭehaze, introduced in the 2015 update to Creative Cloud, is another new feature, adding a way to reduce the haze or fogging that shooting into the sun or a bright light can add to photographs. There is actually sex hidden in gmod, you just have to right click the game in your library, go to Manage and click 'Remove game from account', confirm and it unlocks the hidden sex 9. Thankfully, our results proved impressively consistent, with even quite widely spaced shots stitching seamlessly together: only in one case did we need to export the image into Photoshop to tidy up a glitch. You can’t even zoom into the preview to check for boundary mismatches – although that’s perhaps academic, as there are no tools for fixing them anyway. On opening the preview window you’ll see very few options: just three different projections and an auto-crop tool. It’s a similar story with the panorama feature.
