Adobe just released a new update to Photoshop with 5 new features—and in this video I'll show you each of them and how to incorporate them into your workflow. I'll also give you my honest opinion of their utility; which ones I'll use and which ones I'll quickly remove from my toolbar.

The features covered:  

  1. Generate Image: Adobe Firefly is now incorporated into Photoshop. 
  2. Selection Brush: Essentially the "quickmask" brush—this brush allows you to paint your selection. 
  3. Adjustment Brush: Add an adjustment layer and mask all with a single tool. 
  4. Bullets and numbers: If you're doing text in Photoshop, you now have bullets and numbers. 
  5. User Interface updates: Adjustments are now at the top of the Adjustment Presets panel and the Contextual Task bar has been updated with more options.  

Note: With this update, Adobe has also fixed some bugs with the adjustment presets and these are now working again. To get my full set of Cinematic Adjustment presets, go here.
