New features in the MAX 2022 release

Masking - Select People & Select Object

Enhance your photos by making selective adjustments to people and objects using the Masking tool. Select People and Select Object let you edit parts of the skin and multiple objects in a photo using precise masking selections that automatically detect the people and objects in your images.

Content-Aware Remove

The simplest way to remove blemishes and defects from an image, especially those that are in tough spots, such as dust spots that cross an edge like the edge of a building, mountain, or other objects. You can click on a blemish and Lightroom will automatically sample the nearby areas in the image and blend it.
