I am thinking that, perhaps, when the image does not contain predominantly architectural elements, the Guided button might work best to straighten poles and buildings in the image?

[liverpoolpictorial]

All these years I have been using Select All, Transform, Perspective in Photoshop and then calculating how much to resize the height, when your advice can do it in seconds! Great tip. Thank you so much.

[eddiefison]

Wow, thank you.
Your tutorials are really a life changer.especially for those of us just starting out in photography.

Thank you once again 🙏

[kevin.lazarte]

As always. Your videos are always helpful.

Hi Jesus! Thank you for your excellent video tutorial, as always. In tall buildings, using the Automatic correction or the guide lines to make vertical lines parallel to each other, makes the building looks like the top was broader than the base and the windows larger. Using the manual vertical correction also affects negatively the light poles. How to correct this distortion? Thank you!

[vishvjeetcheema]

Thanks mate for posting such an informative video.

[rohplzl]

Very helpful and straight to the point!
Thank you, Jesús!

[estudio_peso]

thank you so much for this tutorial. I have been working with this tool for some time in my arch photo workflow. I find it easier and more efficient to use for buildings and sort of urban landscapes rather than interior shots of living rooms let's say. What's your opinion on this?

[sidharth]

Thanks for the tutorial, it was very helpful

[clnorris]

Awesome tip and highly valuable! Keep up the great work.

Super useful video! PS is intimidating but with this video I was easily able to straighten the lines in a picture of an interior wall. Seriously, I would have never figured out how to do this on my own so you are a lifesaver and I am now a subscriber.

Yeah, I'm photoshopping a picture of a wall. I needed the corners and a doorway square so I could import the picture into a vector drawing app because, well, I'm making a vertical playground for my cats and want to lay everything out before I start drilling. Also, Oakland! I grew up in the East Bay and am always happy when I run into my old home at random times :D

I appreciate the video. Can you please explain how to manipulate individual exposures (over-exposed, under-exposed, correct exposure) when doing HDR in PhotoShop? I am used to PhotoMatix where control is easy, but I need to know how to do it in PhotoShop and I'm still relatively new to PhotoShop. Sincerely hoping for a reply.

[aeonjoeyd]

wow THANK YOU!!! this is exactly what I wanted! Why do they HIDE this functionality under the Camera Raw Filter??? this is one of the most powerful functions in PhotoShop, and it should be in the lens correction or "fix perspective" or something more easy to figure out where it is. Now that I know, I won't forget, but even though I do shoot and use RAW, I've never bothered to use these features in there ever. Wow, I had no idea it'd work on a NON-RAW photo, or that these were in there! You're amazing dude!

[cpplinford]

Thanks! I always tried to do this in lightroom but this way looks a lot better.

[guillermogiannini]

Very helpful tutorial, thank you very much.

[mayavichy]

wow had no idea about it, an awesome tutorial!!!

[graham_T]

Excellent thank you . Does autocrop exist with this feature ..like it does in Lightroom ?

[ppark]

Thanks. Now I can do what I want to do....

[sundos.]

This worked for me, but after few times the features on the top when I choose Camera Raw Filter diapered so I cannot click on the Transform Icon nor Shift+T because the option doesn't appear any more. Any help please?

Though thank you for the tutorial, it helped a lot instead of using the new apple feature in photo editing.
