Photoshop adds Light Adjustment Layers and Firefly-powered Instruct Edit with Masks
rufusd · x · 2026-09-02
Adobe shipped a set of Photoshop updates focused on precision and control:
- Light Adjustment Layer: pro-grade Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Whites and Blacks controls as a non-destructive adjustment layer, bringing Camera Raw-level lighting into the layers workflow.
- Instruct Edit with Masks, powered by Firefly Image 5, understands full image context so you can describe precise edits (opening closed eyes, adding a hat to a specific person) via prompts while unmasked areas like faces, logos and brand assets stay untouched.
- Markup lets you communicate edits visually by drawing directly on the image.
