Technique LIGHTROOM UPDATES
NEW LIGHTROOM UPDATES: SIX OF THE BEST
The Texture slider
This new slider in Lightroom Classic and CC
affects mid-range detail in an image, letting
you either enhance textures and surfaces or
smooth them out with a negative setting. As
well as the option to apply Texture universally,
you can use it in combination with the local
adjustment tools.
New Home on mobile
Lightroom for IOS/Android has a new home
screen. Alongside your recently added photos
you will fi nd an array of tutorials and image
inspiration – with advice on how each image
was edited, step by step. The home screen
will soon appear in the desktop version of
Lightroom CC too.
Defringe in CC
New to the cloud-based Lightroom CC
desktop app, the Defringe command helps
remove colour fringing. Found under the
Optics tab, it offers more control than ‘Remove
Chromatic Aberration’, with a ‘Fringe Selector’
that allows you to sample a colour from the
fringing you would like to remove.
