Nikon cameras stores the focus point that was in focus and the exposure was taken. This would be extremely valuable to see for a sports/action/wildlife photographer.

Greetings all,

Updates for Camera Raw are available. The July release (18.4.1) has an update regarding this feature request. If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by pressing [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[R]. Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

Thank you for being so patient.

Note: Camera Raw is the Edit/Develop Engine powering the Lightroom clients. New Edit features must be built in Camera Raw before the Lightroom clients can adopt them. Unburdened by the additional cataloging, syncing, and other workflow functionalities, Camera Raw can move more quickly to get these desired new features into your editing workflow. Our goal is to eventually port these features into the Lightroom clients.

Given that LR6 can recognise faces (supposedly, haven't used it myself) the facial recognition features/points could be combined with the focus points to become a very useful tool/filter that could indicate if the face was in focus. Of course there are always times when you *don't* want a face to be in focus but most of the time this *is* what you want...

Poor old Aperture had a feature whereby the points that achieved focus could be overlain on the photo. I found this a really worthwhile feature as a means of quickly assessing whether focus had been achieved where it was intended, e.g. on the eyes or the bridge of the nose in portraits, or to give an idea of depth of field across the subject. Has anybody heard any rumours/rumblings about the possibility of this being added to Lightroom?

To the software creators of PS CC2015: Nikon and Canon software makes it possible to view the point where we focused in a RAW photo; would be very useful to add that feature to CC2015.
Some photographs come out out of focus (like when we focus in the eyes of a person but that was not the focus point chosen by the camera). That problem can be avoided if PS CC shows us where the focus point was selected.

Finally!! Glad to see this plugin come out and I would say it is spot on in terms of the information it captures. I really like the depth of field information as well. Great job!

Would be nice if the information could be presented within LR to make a more integrated experience but I'm assuming that would not be possible.

Anyway, really like the plugin and plan on using it often.
