Here’s a quick rundown of the features most helpful to you.

Lightroom

• Easy Dehaze – remove atmospheric haze to recover color and contrast, or add haze for artistic effects.
• Local Whites & Blacks adjustments – the Whites and Blacks sliders are now available on the Local Adjustment Brush, the Radial Filter and the Graduated Filter.

Do MCP’s Presets work in Lightroom CC 2015?

Absolutely! They work in Lightroom 6 as well, which is the standalone version of Lightroom.

Lightroom Mobile

• Advanced Editing for iPhone & iPad – add vignettes, adjust color with the Color/B&W tool and adjust tone with the tone curve.

Photoshop

• Make blurs look more realistic with additive noise
• Heal & patch images faster than ever – up to 120x faster than in CS6.
• Better panoramas with Content-Aware Fill – check one box to fill in the edges of your stitched panorama.
• Camera Raw improvements – just like Lightroom, you can now add or remove atmospheric haze and access Blacks & Whites adjustments on the local tools.

Do MCP Actions work in Photoshop?

You bet. We haven’t found any actions that aren’t compatible with the new update. There is a known bug that some people are having issues getting any actions to play.  If you encounter this, please contact Adobe as they are working on the issue – as it only impacts a small % of users.  They work fine on our updated version.  If you encounter any problems with MCP products, aside from this general actions issue, we’ll help you at the support desk.

Photoshop Mix

• Now available for Android – access this photo editor on both iOS and Android phones now.
• New editing capabilities – including opacity control and the ability to flip photos.
• Shake Reduction – Reduce blurring caused by camera motion (iPhone only)
