P: Bring back "Shake Reduction" filter - Removed in Photoshop v.23.3.0

Änderungen am Programm ohne die User zu fragen - "Verwacklung reduzieren" in PS v.23.3.0 entfallen?

 

Mittlerweile ist man es als User gewohnt, dass Adobe Änderungen an Photoshop und Co. vornimmt.

Erst der "Fehler" seit Anfang Februar, dass die Ebenen bei der Nutzung von Color Lookup´s schwarz sind und somit nicht nutzbar (das Problem habe ich nach zwei Monaten endlich selbst gelöst) und nun fehlt schlicht und einfach wieder ein Scharfzeichnungsfilter, den viele wahrscheinlich nicht häufg nutzen, ich jedoch als finales Schärfen, diesen "Verwacklung reduzieren" mit Vorliebe eingesetzt habe.

 

Heute am Rechner, Bilder vom Ostersonntagmorgen mit Monduntergang, sitze hier, bearbeite und ... bin überrascht, dass ich meinen Filter nicht mehr finde.

 

Falls dieser doch noch irgendwo sein sollte, mal wieder irgendwo ganz hinten drin versteckt, bin ich dankbar für jeden Tipp.

 

Liebe Grüße und ein schönes Osterfest...
Gordon

Since missing the Shake Reduction filter I have been experimenting with other methods of reducing shake, the best being https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=US8yI3ymZEE  Interesting enough I have discovered that the reason for most of my blurry images was not due to shake but to missed focus. That is a wake up call

Why are so many so quick to just accept Adobe's excuse?  

We are not but there is little we can do except vote with our feet. I will probably not renew my subscription and just use Capture One, which I have been using almost as long as I have PS (1999 for PS, 2003 for C1). I talked to an Adobe representative at the Paris Photo show. He professed ignorance of the issue and said he would get back to me - he didn't, presumably because they have no answer. I really question how much effort they have put into this. Topaz Sharpen AI is much better than some folks are making out. It has never taken longer than around 2 to 3 minutes to process a 45.7 DNG from my Leica M10R.

Yes we all know that the shake reduction filter did not work with the Apple M1 CPU.  But it works perfectly fine on Intel based systems, even Intel based Macs. 

 

You can blame Adobe if you want, and I agree they deserve some of the blame.  But the problem on the M1 isn't new, it's been known for over a year.  I'm sure Adobe expended quite a bit of effort to get it to work; I would venture to guess that they probably got some help for Apple as well.  Apple doesn't want any bad publicity for it's shiny new silicon.  

 

They worked on this for a year and couldn't get it to work.  Kind of points to some sort of problem with the M1.  But if the feature doesn't exist on any version then there is nothing the M1 can't do and thus, no problem.

 

For those pushing Topaz, I've not heard any glowing reviews as compared to Adobe's shake reduction filter.  In what I've read Adobe's filter yielded better results almost always and it was much faster.  I even saw one person say Topaz could take up to 30 minutes to process a single image.  On my PC shake reduction takes about 5 secs for a 24mp raw image with improved results about 95% of the time.

I'm sorry but just bending over is not the answer. That's kind of the problem. Just bend over and waste time. U must be a mac folk.

The "correct" answers, once again, are not answers at all. You shouldn't have to be keeping multiple version of PS on your system which hog your space and memory. It's bad enough with the latest version memory hog. If that is the "correct" answer then I would have to keep every other version back to CS to keep some of my (important) plugins functioning. Once again Adobe decides to screw users over.

Totally agree with you. AI incompatibility probably. Apple is very proprietary.  I believe they're in court for this as ppl using their phones have to use their Apple pay with no other alternatives.

Sorry to say but Adobe have discontinued the shake reduction tool as it was not compatible with their new operating platform. This is also true for the 3D program which used to be included in Photoshop. The only easy solution is to install an earlier version of Photoshop.
Hope this helps Justin

The filter has also been removed from the Windows version of PS, with the same message as shown for Mac users: "The technology is not compatible with newer development platforms." All this along with Topaz's ability to make a camera shake filter work (at least for Mac - I don't know if they sell a Windows version) firmly dumps the issue in Adobe's lap.

In your last post you were rhetorically quoting Adobe as saying we (Adobe) can't make the shake reduction filter work with "...Mx series Macs on OS 11 and fowards or Windows 11...".  Where did Window's 11 come from.  Was it previously reported that the filter also didn't work on Windows 11?  I thought the issue was purely limited to M1 based Macs.  

 

Unless the issue was also reported to be impacting Windows 11, then it shouldn't be assumed that Windows 11 is included in the "newer developement platforms" from Adobe's "reasoning" for removing the filter from all versions.  Can anyone running Windows 11 speak to whether or not it works? 

 

If you step back and look at this from 20,000 feet, this has Apple written all over it.  Think about it... A popular feature that works fine, and very well, on all other systems except for Apple's new flagship.  It even works in Rosetta, Apple's backwards compatiblity crutch to get apps coded for Intel based systems to work on the M1.  Now Apple wants to dump Rosetta, because the M1 doesn't need a crutch, but Adobe still hasn't figured out how to get Shake Reduction to work with the M1.  Can't have a popular feature missing from the M1 Mac version of PhotoShop, that would be a black eye.  Someone at Apple, perhaps Mr Cook himself calls someone at Adobe, wheels are properly greased and voila, problem solved!  No one gets Shake reduction.

 

Please know I'm not trying to start any sort of flame war.  Everything I've read about the M1 says it is an incredibly powerful processor and I am in no way even attempting to refute that.  But like everything else on this earth, it was designed by a human, so regardless of how awesome it is, it's not perfect.  Why does the solution have to be even less perfect?

 

If Shake Reduction also didn't work on Windows 11, then please ignore the above and let me know.  I will delete the post myself.
