Announcing a new feature now in Adobe Camera Raw (17.2) – Removal of Distracting People

Under the Remove dialog, under Distraction Removal, we have added an item called “People”.

This feature supports faster and easier detection and removal of distracting people in an image. It is offered as a Tech Preview in the Adobe Camera Raw Plugin-only and is available now. Please try it out and let us know what works well, what doesn’t work well, and anything that might improve the experience.

Thank you!

Peter Baust - Dir, Product Management

How do I reduce the masked area surrounding a person if I think the area covered by the mask is too large?

This feature is not working consitently for me. It only sometimes works, and not on every photo. It seems to be not working when a photo already has some edits applied. If this is the case, then I press reset in the dev module, and then it finally works on a specific photo.

is there a way to solve this?

If it should be removing people from the photo i would assume it shouldn't generate any stupid items? The tool should be called "replace people with AI bs".

It removes the people quite well, and then adds a random person that didn't exist.

Extremely limited. Might work out if you gave an option to brush over or adjust the mask but at that point, why not use the patch tool and generative remove? It's ok. Not much of a time saver and definately needs work but it does pick up people in the background who are out of focus due to depth of field so it has some promise.

Used Remove tool "People" in LR Classic. The tool did a good job of removing the cast shadow, but failed on the person. The tool replaced the person with tripod I was trying to eliminate with a very colorful person and a different tripod.

It works for simple removal of people, but one prominent person was not masked.
