Every tool and all the important functions explained using practical examples - your trainer Michael Baierl welcomes you to a two-hour intensive course:

Tutorial Part 1: Basics and the tools at a glance

You call up Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop if you want to develop raw files or edit JPG images. With version 12.3, the program interface of the plug-in has been completely revised. This is exactly where the video tutorial comes in. All explanations take place on the new interface so that you can follow what is shown directly in the current version.

In the first part of the video training, you will learn the basics as well as the tools and their functions. For example, white balance and cropping, the linear and radial graduated filters as well as the color pickup, correction brushes and the tool for removing red eyes are used.

You will see how the various tools affect your images in individual photo examples. Open the working files to accompany the training so that you can practically reproduce what has been shown in Camera Raw .

Tutorial part 2: Concrete practice - work steps and complete photo edits

You will rarely open Adobe Camera Raw to perform just one editing step. Instead, you will combine the options to retouch your photos, adjust the brightness and color, make lens corrections and create certain image looks, for example.

Whether you want to sharpen your photo, convert it to black and white, remove sensor spots or straighten the horizon line - your trainer will provide you with suitable solutions for typical photo editing challenges . In a final chapter, many of the previously introduced techniques are combined in complete editing processes. Look over your trainer's shoulder as he fully optimizes and creatively enhances landscape, portrait, architecture, sports and business photos in Adobe Camera Raw.
