    time mousing between settings. Fine modications are aster and easier with additions like

    the new Vibrance adjustment layer and enhanced Color Range mask creation. And Content-

    Re-editable, eathered,

    density-controlled masks

    Te new Masks panel smooths and speeds

    the creation and adjustment o pixel and

    vector masks, making it easier than ever to

    apply eects to precisely dened areas o an

    image. Now, with simple sliders, you can

    adjust the density and eathering o a mask,

    to control both the sharpness o the mask

    edge and how much o the adjustment eectyoud like to reveal. Te Rene Mask eature

    allows simple yet ne-grained control over

    the mask size and edges. And Color Range

    has been upgraded or better accuracy and

    power. Its a ast way to automatically create

    powerul and detailed masks based on single

    or multiple colors, with simple controls or

    the spatial tolerance and uzziness o the

    color sampling.

    More refned, natural results with

    Dodge, Burn, and SpongeIn the days o lm, paper, saelights, and

    chemicals, photographers dodged and

    burned their prints during exposure, to

    darken and brighten areas o an image as

    they created it. It was an art that required

    steady hands and practice to master. Te

    newly rened Dodge, Burn, and Sponge

    tools in Photoshop CS4 take the pain and

    practice out o preserving tonal quality

    while you spot-correct exposure and color saturation. Simply paint the area you want to

    adjust and get advanced results in a raction o the time.

    Enhanced Auto-Align, Auto-Blend, and new 360 panoramas

    Te automatic alignment and blending technology in Photoshop CS4 enhances a wide

    variety o eatures, but nowhere are the improvements more obvious than in Photomerge.

    Now, when you stitch a sequence o images into a panorama, enhanced blending combines

    with new vignetting and geometric distortion corrections to bring you even better

    resultsa panorama with more natural colors blended rom one end o the scene to the

    other. Additional improvements include the ability to create 360-degree panoramas,

    automatic detection

    o sh eye lenses to

    compensate or

    their inherent

    distortion, and the

    new Collage option

    Content-Aware Scaling

    Imagine you have an image that is ideal or a new project, except the proportions are wrong.

    Maybe its a ull-rame 8x12-inch photograph you want to t into an 8x10-inch rame, or a

    8x10-inch image you want to crunch down to a panoramic, without sacrifcing the people or

    important background. Up to now, getting these results was so time-consuming a process

    that it was virtually impossible. With Content-Aware Scaling, the near-impossible becomes

    the near-instantaneous success. Content-Aware Scaling is the revolutionary new eature in

    Photoshop CS4 that lets you resize and recompose simultaneously, with no more eort than

    it takes you to simply resize an image. As the name implies, the eature analyzes the image

    in the background while you adjust it, and intelligently recomposes the scene to preserve themost visually interesting areas. Content-Aware Scaling automatically recognizes skin tones

    to keep people rom being squeezed out o the shot, and or more ne-grained control,

    selection tools let you easily dene the most important areas beore you begin scaling.

    o begin, simply select any unlocked layer in a Photoshop document, and then either choose

    Edit > Content-Aware Scale, or press Command-Option-Shif-C (Mac OS X) or Ctrl-Alt-

    Shif-C (Windows). Resize the image by dragging the corner or side controls, exactly as i

    you were doing a crop or ree transorm. I you want to dene a protection area rst, use any

    selection tool to select the vital area, then choose Select > Save Selection to save it as a new

    alpha channel. Choose a saved selection rom the Protect menu to constrain the new

    composition when you adjust the

    image with Content-Aware Scaling.

    Extended depth o feld

    Whether its the extreme close-up, the microbial world, or simply low-light conditions, there

    are times when the depth o eld you can capture with your camera is extremely shallow.

    Now, you can shoot the scene with a series o ocal points, and use the enhanced Auto-Blend

    Layers eature to automatically create a new, single image with a depth o eld encompassing

    the entire series. You can even

    color-correct the images at the same

    time, automatically. Tis eature

    provides breathtaking enhancement

    o any scene where lighting anddepth o eld are in short supply.

    Fluid canvas rotation

    Photoshop CS4 introduces a revolutionary new eature that lets you paint and draw as easily

    and naturally as sitting down at an easel. With the new Rotate View tool, you can

    nondestructively spin your canvas to any orientation you desirea boon to every illustrator

    whether you paint by mouse or tablet. No pixel distortion, no craning your head to get theperspective you want, and no matter how you spin your canvas, Photoshop CS4 adjusts your

    selections, grids, rulers, and other tools and eatures to match your chosen orientation.

    Ultra-smooth, extra-precise pan, zoom, preview, and painting tools

    Most modern computers contain a powerul graphics processor (GPU) that is almost like

    having a second computer inside the box. Photoshop CS4 leverages the power o your GPU

    with OpenGL technology to blast past the image-viewing restrictions o yesterday. Zoom all

    the way down to the level o

    individual pixels, with perect

    clarity even at the oddest

    magnication percentages.

    Tighter integration with Photoshop Lightroom 2

    Proessionals and other advanced photographers rely on the one-two punch o Adobe

    Photoshop and Photoshop Lightroom sofware as the complete digital photography toolkit.

    Photoshop CS4 makes this workow easier than ever, with improved cross-application

    support or automated unctions, such as opening multiple photographs rom Lightroom 2

    directly into a layered Photoshop document, high dynamic range (HDR) image, panorama,

    or Smart Object. Lightroom 2 and Adobe Camera Raw also share the same underlying

    technology, which means the changes

    you make with Camera Raw 5 in

    Photoshop CS4 are recognized inLightroom 2, and vice versa.

    Camera Raw 5 with localized,

    nondestructive adjustments

    Providing the rst step in the processing

    o raw data rom your digital camera,

    Camera Raw now enables you to make

    localized adjustments by simply painting

    the area to be aected, and then using

    sliders to control the change. Additional

    enhancements include Post Crop

    Vignetting, and gradient-based localizedcorrection. You can apply the same

    Camera Raw adjustments to IFF and

    JPEG photographs, and, as always, the

    corrections you make are completely

    nondestructive, with the original les

    being maintained in their pristine state.

    Breakthrough 3D editing and compositing

    With Photoshop CS4 Extended, you can now work with 3D models as easily and powerully

    as you can 2D images, without navigating dialog boxes and special layer contents. For the

    rst time, you can paint directly on 3D models, easily convert 2D images or gradient maps

    into 3D objects, and convert layers into volumes. Wrap a at design onto a 3D object bymerging the 2D layer directly onto your 3D layer. Merge two dierent 3D layers into a single

    scene. You can even use video layers as textures, to turn any 3D object into a video display

    zone. Basic presets will speed the process o turning two-dimensional designs into common

    3D shapes such as spheres and cylinders. You can also export 3D layers directly to the OBJ,

    KMZ, Collada, and U3D le ormats. It all means that every creative proessional can now

    take immediate advantage o three-dimensional assets created in todays high-end modeling

    applications, and use them

    in their 2D mock-ups and

    composites. Te 3D engine

    has been rebuilt rom the

    ground up to provide

    dramatically asterperormance; allow editing

    o properties like lights,

    materials, and cameras; and

    create more realistic

    o non-square-pixel images. Easily preview and export the audio content o a video le as

    well as its rame comments. New keyboard shortcuts are enabled or the Animation panel to

    make ast work o editing between rames and keyrames. You can now animate the 3D

    object and camera position, render settings, and cross-sections, bringing new depth to

    motion-graphics editing. When working with 3D objects, you can even place video layers

    into your textures, turning any 3D object surace into a video display screen. Especially or

    lm and television proessionals, Adobe Afer Eects CS4 can now directly read andimport 3D layers rom Photoshop CS4 les.

    Volume Rendering

    Volume Rendering is a new way to easily convert text, shape, or pixel layers into a volume.

    Artists can combine painted layers into entirely new and eye-catching 3D volumes. Motion

    graphics proessionals can quickly turn text layers into animated 3D text. Medical

    proessionals can volume render a DICOM image stack into a 3D anatomical image that can

    be viewed and explored rom all angles and depths. Whether the goal is creative or scientic
