Generative remove is an awesome addition. I would always jump in and out of photoshop to do that. This will save me a few steps.

Beautiful demo, thanks, you're a great presenter. I love the depth blur.

I used to be a programmer. What these guys do is so beyond what I ever dreamed of.

[johntriebe]

Great video. On tethering, what settings are needed to be made on the camera?

[margueritewhite]

Oh wow!!! That lens blur is awesome and so easy to use! It's about time that these things became so user friendly!! Thank you for the update!

[JimSewell]

Thanks Colin, great job explaining and demonstrating the new features. I like the AI-assisted remove best but they are all sweet features to have in LR!

[picklebird]

Really like the generative remove and much improved background blur (although it still requires a lot of work to look realistic!). Thanks for your review.

[bv]

Just... Wow! And, as always, so clearly illustrated and explained. Thanks!!!

[NicholasStein]

The blur features are very interesting to me. You demonstrated them well.

[delpinsky]

Really interesting being able to work like this directly in Lightroom. It's getting better and better AI.

super presentation and examples ! my preferred feature is sony tether for my a74 and a7r5. Recently i purchased tethertools smartshooter 5 but didn't like it under LRC, so i purchased C1 just for tethering, which is amazing tool for zooming, checking focus, .... Perhaps i won't renew my C1 next year if LRC is working well. I am not interested with IA remove because it is limited to 250 images/month with photography subscription. So, i will continue using photoshop and ON1 to do that for free.

These are fantastic updates, especially the Sony tethering feature! It is great that Adobe is incorporating more features from Photoshop to Lightroom Classic!

The enhancement to the lens blur feature is my favorite. This feature works great to sharpen objects into focus, this enhancement allows you greater control.

[jessemorgan]

the lens blur improvements are excellent

[bigdan]

Thank you so much for this clear explanation.
I'm curious what are some other tools Photoshop could offer that Lightroom classic can't now?
Asking because I started trying to learn Photoshop, and now this removal tool came out, and I'm wondering if it's worth the venture of trying to learn Photoshop still

[sfiron]

Tethering is great 👍🏻 been waiting forever for that

[RegWestly]

finally got the Canon R6 MarkII tethering good too, super fast as well
Great explanation of the focus blur

[guzy]

Thank you for the info! the new features looks cool and happy to know the tethered connection speed now are in par with capture one.

[jamesgarcia]

Great video, thank you! My favorite would be the new removal tools.

Obviously, the lens blur feature isn't yet where it should be usability-wise. There should be stuff like masking objects or parts of the image and set focus/blur to selected areas with as you would do with a color picker for example. At the moment with all the work done with brushes, there's still way too much corrections needed to be done by hand.

Great video! Do you know if Sony tethering for the iPad version of Lightroom works?
