How Well Do You Know Photoshop?

Theresa Stone

A few months ago, I wrote an article called “So You Think You Know Photoshop?” that introduced you to five videos from Photoshop product manager Bryan O’Neil Hughes. Each of these videos revealed little-known abilities in Photoshop CS5.
Now Bryan has released four more “hidden gem” videos. Spend the few minutes it takes to watch them and you’ll probably learn something new.
Selective Sharpening
When you want to sharpen just one part of an image without introducing jaggy artifacts, let the new Protect Detail option work its magic.

Automated Lens Correction
All cameras introduce some amount of geometric distortion, chromatic aberration, and vignetting to your shots. See how Photoshop takes care of these problems.

Tablet Painting Connection
Photoshop can communicate with tablet devices, and visa versa. See how to take advantage of this communication to create unique effects.

Easy Image Access with Mini Bridge
Why would you want Adobe’s Bridge to run in a Photoshop panel? To save time and trouble, of course. Watch the video for details.
