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!

It works and it does not work. A big thing is missing:

- It finds people, which is good. But then

- we have no option to refine what LrC found. The selected areas are much too big and should be made smaller.

quando funziona va benissimo. Ma non sempre trova le persone giuste da cancellare. Sarebbe opportuno dare la possibilità di modificare le maschere.

I am trying to remove people from my photo using the new tool, but it only detects one person instead of six, so unfortunately only one person is removed.
I have tried this with different photos, but each time, only one person is removed.

First time i tried there is a big smudge on it so now i have to bring the picture into Photoshop as the remove tool still works better there?

I tried it on an Image of "Ponte degli Scalzi" in Venice which has little Pillars as Bridge railing. The People remove Tool, found most People, made the selection of the People even over the Railing where the People peaked through, but it had difficulties removing those parts of the People peaking through the Railing Pllars. After the remove action, the Space between the Pillars stayed the same, dark Legs of the former People standing there, instead of being replaced by the background sky.

Also, the Tool selection wend over unnecessairy details of the Bridge Railing, resulting in removing and replacing Bridge Details that where not parts of a Person, altering the Appearance of the Bridge.

Therefor, it would be nice to be able to edit the automatically generated Mask of the Person remove tool. Including Parts of the Image that it missed, and excluding Parts that one would like to protect from being altered.

Overall I like the ne Person and Reflection Remove Tools and the time saving they offer.

I love working with Lightroom Classic, thanks for still doing further development!

Si ça ce n'est pas se moquer de ses clients, je ne vois pas l"utilité de cette daube inutilisable ! Mise à jour qui ne doit amuser qu'Adobe surtout quand on voit arriver les nouveaux tarifs !

Sometimes I want to remove all of the people. Unable to add people or exclude others. Otherwise it does a good job removing the ones it does identify.

Was so excited for a second, then, first time using it to get rid of a person, it literally puts another person there.
