Great explanation of the point color tool, I haven't used it very much - this makes me want to go back to some previous edits and see what it can do. Thanks!
Thanks Greg, this is the best video on the use of Point Colour I have watched, always love your videos and explanations. Thank you again for a great tutorial.
Thank you, Greg…another appreciated tutorial. If I may, I’d like to pass on a very useful function that ACR has that LIghtroom does not: once the object selection tool is employed in ACR it will continue the selection after being stopped. Unlike Lightroom whereby once the selection ‘painting’ has stopped and a new object selection must be added, in ACR one can simply continue and add to the original selection, repeatedly (similar to the brush functionality).
Probably not going to happen, but it would be so great if these tools were migrated to PS as adjustment layers along with the masking tools generally. ACR's color and masking tools are really phenomenal and wish I didn't have to go into Camera Raw to do these things via a smart object of my PS composite. Fantastic video as always Greg!
@@gregbenzphotography And it's so inefficient from a file size standpoint. If I'm not mistaken you're basically embedding a flattened version of your file. Also, compare something like the Selective Color adjustment layer to anything similar in ACR. It feels downright ancient in comparison-slow and blunt.
@gnomistphoto that’s correct. Any Smart Object has a compatibility layer, which is basically a flattened copy. I’m ok with the file bloat, completely worth it and provides significant performance benefits. I could see a future where we can count on computer processing to just let it all render live, but that would also mean loss of backwards compatibility, so not a trivial thing to resolve.
Interesting and useful. Might help for the sake of visual clarity if in future you made the image smaller and the adjustment panel much larger, so we can see what you're actually doing.

I've watched several videos on this new feature. None of them have gone into the depth, value, or gotchas of using it. Thank you

Thank you!
Excellent in-depth detail and insight as usual - thanks a ton Greg! Was a lot of work (at least to me) but the end result made it all worth it!
Awesome video Greg - thanks so much! Especially useful advice to use this adjustment lastly in your workflow.
Thank you Greg!! I use your Lumenzia and Web Sharp and these tips and information are added gold to processing my images. Thanks again!!!
Great to hear it!

Agreed. I wish all of ACR were directly part of PS. RAW Smart Objects are amazing, but slow to get in/out and you can’t see the layered results live.
