Hello, I am incredibly upset about the removal of the preview button in Camera Raw. It has completely interrupted my workflow. I don't mind the ADDITION of new features for those who make take advantage of them, but the REMOVAL of perfectly good features that many of us are used to using is asinine and if you can't tell I am rather upset about it. Please for the sake of god bring it back.

    Preview?!?!?!?   I can no longer see before and after preview of just my sharpness/noise reduction settings.

    I agree with stlouiscrash09. . . . "I am incredibly upset about the removal of the preview button in Camera Raw. It has completely interrupted my workflow.

    Arbitrary software change like this are tough on those of us who work under deadlines.

    Can you describe the workflow you use(d) in which you employed the Preview button?

    Perhaps there's another way to "get there from here" with the new version.

    I understand the "before and after" button, but if you go on to another

    photo you cant use it anymore. It's very frustrating. I would edit a photo

    and check the preview button to see the before and after, then move on.

    Sometimes I would find something that works different in another photo and

    want to go back and make small tweaks to a previous photo and I would still

    want to use the preview button to compare to the original, not the first or

    second or third edit. It is very frustrating.

    Jules, if I understand your particular issue -- that you would like to be able to revert to the original image as it existed before any changes were made -- one option is to set a snapshot when you first open an image.  The snapshot panel is accessed through the far right icon, next to the presets icon.  However, if you do select the original snapshot after you've made changes to the image, I'm not sure how you would then revert to the image with the changes.
