Camera Raw

This post applies to Adobe Camera Raw plug-in.     Adobe Camera Raw team is sharing an early look of our new Reflection Removal feature, which removes reflections caused by plate glass surfaces from photos.    Note:  The feature currently only works on raw photos. Support for JPEGs & HEICs is added in the April 24 Update. There is a known issue on some Windows machines where the feature may produce a corrupt image. We are working on a fix for the upcoming release.    Check out HelpX for more detailed usage information. For more technical information on the underlying technology, please refer to this Blog post.    Getting started with the Reflection Removal feature:  Make sure you have the “New AI Features and Settings Panel” Technology Preview enabled in the Camera Raw plug-in Preferences dialog (requires restarting the host application to activate).  Go to the Remove panel [B] , and in the “Distraction Re

Hasselblad’s FFF. formats are not supported anymoreProblem occurs in both Mac OS 15.5 (24F74)  & Windows 11 pro (Betriebssystembuild: 26100.7840)When opening fff. files in the newest Bridge (16.0.3), Camera RAW Plugin (18.3.) opens and creates an error, claiming the file format is not supported. Same Problem occurs with  the newest Lightroom Classic (15.3). The Import is not possible cause the file format is not supported.Thank you for your help!

This post applies to Camera Raw. Lightroom Classic and Lightroom Ecosystem feedback can be found here. Previous Early Access Feedback can be found here.   Generative Remove makes it easier to remove unwanted objects and distractions with a simple gesture, even on complex backgrounds. For more accurate results, be sure to include the object's shadow in your selection and/or expand its size.    Detect Objects uses AI to find the objects underneath a brushed area. The masked areas will now appear larger than the Early Access version of this feature. You can also circle objects for quicker selection now.    We have also updated the spot selection experience to make it easier to manage variations, switch the fill type, refine the selection area, or re-generate as needed.    Batch updating is also now supported for Generative Remove spots. As Generative AI analyzes portions of the image that have been cropped out, Camera Raw has the ability to tog

My remove tool stopped removing objects.  I have tried generative remove and plain remove.  Neither work.  For instance, I am editing a photo of a baseball catcher making a throw.  Off in the distance past the outfield fence is a school bus.  I am trying to remove it, but when the remove tool is used, it does nothing.  It highlights the area and looks like it is doing something, but it makes no changes.  Previously, prior to a couple of days ago, it was working fine.  What happened?

Announcing a new feature now in Adobe Camera Raw (17.2) – Removal of Distracting PeopleUnder 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   Posted by Rikk Flohr  

I have never had an issue with ACR before.18.3 freezing saying not responding saving files took twenty minutes instead of seconds everything was super laging, when I disabled the GPU acceleration it improved I see on the other pages I am not alone I'm using the most up to date windows, Nvidia drivers ETC: I have a 7950x, 5090, 64GB and NVME drives. Please fix as soon as possible or at least give a link to the previous version which I had no issues with.Solution:Update following the instructions in this link:  

Please can someone explain the changes to the crop tool in Camera Raw (18.3)?When using the gemoetry options I cannot crop to the edge of the image no matter what I do - this was no problem before. When the crop area is maximised, the crop tool no longer drags the cropped area, it only draws a new area to crop.This is incredibly frustrating. Please can someone tell me how to get the legacy crop tool back? This wasn’t included in any “What’s New” content I have seen.

In the latest veersion of ACR, the ability to mask subject/background etc has gone wrong. Particularly object masking. It has completely gone to unusable. It slects wrong things, Slects too Little and wont allow adding etc. It has completely changed in quality to the point I can no longer use it. I am stuck using only brush or gradient mask at best

Steps to reproduce: 1. load image in ACR 2. choose the crop tool (C)  3. enlarge the canvas (check "enable expand" first) 4. apply a manual transformation   Result: the stretched image is confined by the dimension of the imageExpected result: the stretched image is only restricted by the size of the canvas   Workaround: Export image with enlarged canvas and use ACR from there

When I'm using RAW images for editing, I typically load 10-20 images in Camera Raw. When I try to use AI-related features like AI masking, I receive the following error message:"The graphics processor has encountered an unrecoverable error.Due to a run-time error, GPU acceleration has been disabled for the remainder of the session."I have tried all the methods mentioned in forums for months, almost 6 months now. Currently, I cannot even edit a single photo if the preset is slightly heavy with AI tools such as subject selection or background selection.I have taken the following steps to try to resolve the issue:Updated the BIOS.Performed a clean installation of Windows.Conducted a driver cleanup.Updated drivers to the latest versions.Reinstalled Adobe apps.Tried using a previous version of Camera Raw (version 14.x).Used only Adobe default settings (without my own presets).Experimented with all combinations of graphic acceleration settings.Logged into a new admin user account.Had an Adob

As seen on the screen recording added to this post, my raw files are automatically getting more contrast and colour as they are loaded into Adobe Bridge… Anyone else have this problem? And how do I fix it? I would love the images to stay neutral until I edit them. 

Hello everyone, I recognized a strange behaviour in Camera RAW. I opened Photoshop, then opened about 20 RAW files waiting for Camera RAW to load. So it does. I start working in CR, but after a few minutes CR is getting very laggy, my mouse pointer is sometimes freezing, and every change, for example exposure or any other parameter, leads into a delayed output for about 5 or 6 seconds. A smooth working is not possible anymore. So I made some tests. It doesn't matter if I open just one oder 50 RAW files, always the same. I figured out that this behaviour first occures when I use AI masking for automatically choosing the background or the main object in my picture. As soon as I choose a mask with AI feature, I see that my RAM is slowly filling up until it is completely used. From this point, the described delays happen. I have Windows 10, 32 GB RAM (should be enough, at least for one RAW file?), Ryzen 7600X and Geforce 4070S. I don't know when this started, becau

The new masking selection tools in Camera Raw are great, but It would be much better if Camera Raw had a feather effect tool in the masking section. Because after masking, a thin, white line appears around the object that looks awful.

The following video is a demo of the CPU usage of the latest version of Adobe Denoise AI on Windows 11. There is something strange in that Adobe Camera Raw runs the CPU in the high +90% for a long time after all the Denoise work is done. If you have ACR Version 17 with Technology Preview enabled, please run a similar test and report if you see the same strange CPU usage. Video at: https://www.arkacy.com/Other/Temp-Upload/n-5RJTN/i-v67pfCT/A Related thread on DPReview: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4784646#forum-post-68019063 Related thread on Adobe Camera Raw Forum: https://community.adobe.com/t5/camera-raw-discussions/p-technology-preview-enhance-denoise-super-resolution-raw-details/td-p/14856090
