What’s New

Photoshop 27.10 introduces powerful new ways to edit and create with AI while giving you more control over your workflow. You can now fine-tune image lighting non-destructively with the new Light adjustment layer, making it easier to adjust exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, and more without permanently changing your original image.

This release also brings the AI Assisted editor (Beta) directly into Photoshop, giving you access to Firefly-powered creative tools from within your editing workflow. New AI capabilities include Prompt to Edit, which lets you make image changes using natural language, and Markup, which enables you to guide AI generation and editing with visual annotations. 

For more precise AI-powered editing, you can now use masks and selections to control exactly where generative edits are applied. Text workflows are also improved with Dynamic Text for shapes and paths, allowing text to reflow and resize as you adjust shapes and paths automatically. 

Additionally, you can browse and import Adobe Stock assets directly within Photoshop, and customize which file formats appear in the Save As and Save a Copy dialogs for a cleaner, more personalized experience.

    How to make a mess.

    Rename long time well known Brightness and contrast to Light adjustment layer, same time leave standard adjustment as Brightness and contrast.

    Why?

    I agree! PLEASE restore the previous brightness/contrast adjustment layer. The new version is NOT an improvement.

    No. It IS improvemnet, but it needs to keep consistency in behavior.

    Btw. you can switch panel to old Brightness Contrast in Options for panel.

    Shouldn't the beta options be in the beta version?
