Yesterday at Adobe MAX 2018, Adobe unveiled major updates to nearly all of their Creative Cloud applications, including Lightroom and Photoshop. Regarding Photoshop in particular, there are many updates, big and small, and Jesús Ramirez of the Photoshop Training Channel has broken them all down in a couple of new videos.

The first video below highlights the “must-know” new features of Adobe Photoshop CC 2019, including ones not specifically aimed at photographers. When you first boot up Photoshop CC 2019, you will be met with a new home screen and learn panel, which may prove to be a great resource for photographers, beginners and advanced users alike. Additional features which should prove most interesting include a new blending mode preview mode, truncated layer names, flipped canvas view, locked workspaces, new color wheel, content-aware fill and the new frame tool. You can check out Ramirez’s take on these features and more below.

Perhaps the most interesting new tool for photographers is content-aware fill. In the video below, Ramirez runs through numerous photo examples and breaks down all the options for content-aware fill and which settings will allow for the best, most natural-looking results.
