NEW YORK, NY - DecemToday, Skylum announced its first update to Luminar 4, complete with several feature additions and improvements to make workflow easier, and to allow for more control in its machine-learning tools. Luminar update brings new AI-centric features and performance improvementsĪ month after its initial release, Luminar 4 receives update with new and improved tools, performance upgrades and more. More information is available on the Skylum website. In addition, the update brings a new Adjustments Amount slider that lets you blend image enhancements with the original image and general performance improvements. Portrait Enhancer now works with a wider range of images, also enhancing faces that are smaller in the frame, for example in group shots or environmental portraits. The Erase tool now creates softer edges and Skylum says a new algorithm comes up with smarter selections for area replacement.

The Erase tool has been upgraded to allow for more precise object removal with complicated backgrounds or complex gradients. This is particularly useful when dealing with strongly saturated replacement skies that don't match the foreground. The company says that in combination with the Sky Temperature and Sky Exposure sliders this allows for a realistic light balance between the replaced sky and the image foreground. Skylum has launched version 4.1 of its Luminar image editing and organization software, providing improvements to the AI-powered AI Sky Replacement and Portrait Enhancer tools, as well as the Erase tool.ĪI Sky Replacement now lets users add 'atmospheric haze' as it is usually seen during daytime, to their images.
