REFINE WITH POWERFUL PHOTOGRAPHY TOOLS
Achieve superior results in fewer steps when you remove noise, add grain, create vignettes, correct lens distortions, sharpen, and create HDR images. And enjoy better-than-ever raw file conversion thanks to improved demosaicing.

Quick image corrections

  Save time with automatic correction of lens distortions, chromatic aberration, and vignetting. Adobe® Photoshop® CS5 uses an image file's EXIF data to make precise adjustments based on the type of camera and lens you used.
• Lens Correction filter improvements ENHANCED
  Work more intuitively with the Lens Correction filter. The Grid display is now off by default; chromatic aberration correction sliders allow decimal point adjustments; a third slider has been added to correct common green/magenta aberrations; and more.
• Straighten Image tool NEW
  Quickly straighten any crooked image. Simply drag a straight line from the Ruler tool onto your image, and the image will snap to the line.
• Gradient tool preset for neutral density NEW
  Use the Neutral Density preset to emulate a neutral density filter, clicking once to have the Gradient tool darken an overexposed patch of a photo while leaving the rest unaltered.

Professional color and tone control

• HDR Pro ENHANCED
