We had a chance to break in the latest Photoshop CS6 Extended (64-bit) beta version before its grand launch. The main difference from the Extended and Standard editions, apart from the price tag, are the advanced 3D abilities. Adobe has addressed functionality in both versions but since it is a beta release, we won't comment extensively on that aspect of the program until we evaluate the final release.
There are many improvements within the software which includes more than 65 "user-inspired" improvements; we're going to concentrate on the most relevant improvements for photography enthusiasts.
The very first thing you will find is a fresh, darkish interface which gives you a far more focused viewpoint and much more adequate evaluation of photos. Even so, you can change the backdrop by a simple right click or by making the change in Preferences. Personally, I prefer the dark backdrop but others may feel more at ease with one that is even darker or lighter (there are four options by the way).
Though it isn't really evident visually, the new Background Save and auto-recovery options are big. Because of the ever-growing proportions of image files and the length of time it requires to save them to the HD, Background Save, that includes a progress bar, which can make working with Photoshop far more beneficial since you can carry out extra tasks on other files without delay. Auto-recovery will save you from sudden glitches-heart-stopping minutes we've all experienced at one time.
Another time-saver is the power to move your preset from your recent version of the program. Photoshop CS6 is the very first to offer this crucial element so you don't have to re-create every presets you worked so hard to build.
There have been hopeful rumors that Photoshop CS6 could deliver blurry photos into focus. For now, we'll let the Lytro camera hold that claim. But Photoshop CS6 includes a new blur gallery with 3 options: Field Blur, Tilt-Shift and Iris Blur. The last one is the most important which can produce targeted bokeh or depth-of-field. Just place a spot on the image to set the spot of focus and after that move the two surrounding rings. Both inner and outer rings are adaptable so you can show where the blur is strongest with the other, while the inner ring adjustments is for feathering. If your lens wasn't able to get as much bokeh as you wanted, the Iris Blur tool gives you an instant and straightforward option.
Additional updates for Photoshop CS6 is the video feature, with the latest release this aspect has been widened. Along with creating image improvements familiar to all photography enthusiasts such as contrast, brightness, color balance and employing standard tools such as Levels and Curves (layering them), it is possible to select from 5 transitions and much more.
Adobe Photoshop CS6 can certainly make life simpler and photos much better. It's as easy as that. And, the ability to modify a big list of variables for video clips just boosts the variety of reasons photography enthusiasts will be downloading the beta by the thousands.
