![]() After posing the question on a help forum, I discovered that you need to save the crop as a preset. ![]() I was looking for this in the crop dropdown menu, which makes sense to me. CroppingĪnother thing that is a bit harder to do in On1 is saving a custom crop. I do, however, find it awkward having some controls placed over on the left-hand side, such as the crop tool, retouching, transform, and especially a duplicate of the local tool. Plus, there are the effects, sky, portrait, and local tabs. ![]() All in all, though, it's pretty familiar for a Lightroom user. I often like to hide the presets, as I find the thumbnails take up a lot of room. The presets are there on the left side, and the tone and color controls are on the right in the develop tab. The layout of the editing controls is well organized and straightforward. Lightroom smoothed out the ghosting with ease, whereas On1 just couldn’t handle it, even on the highest setting for deghosting. But, when it came to a ghosting problem in the clouds, Lightroom's deghosting feature worked far better than On1’s on this particular image where, the clouds were obviously moving by at a decent clip. The HDR tool in On1 is robust and has a nice set of features for controlling what the look of the final image will be before developing, something which is lacking in Lightroom, which seems to rely much more on the software automatically making choices, which you can then alter after the fact. I like having both of those functions combined into one.Ī much more automated experience in Lightroom and the sky was ghost-free. As far as I can tell in On1, you need to create your HDR images first, then go back and stitch them together in a panorama. However, there’s no setting for creating HDR panoramas, which is something I often use in Lightroom. PanoramasĬreating panoramas is likewise very easy, just as it is in Lightroom. That final result is usually good, but it just takes a bit more time and effort to get there. ![]() I've always wondered why Lightroom does not include this feature, instead making me export images into Photoshop and use several steps to get to the final result. But this time, it worked smoothly and easily and gave me a great final image. I had tried it before in previous versions and did not have very satisfactory results. While not new, I also really like the focus stacking feature in On1 2022. I can only see this feature getting better over time as new controls and features are added. Even for a time-lapse newbie like me, it was super easy to select a series of images I had shot for that purpose and put together a quick time-lapse. One feature I enjoyed exploring and that will help On1 become part of my post-processing toolkit is the time-lapse creation feature. Generally it works very fast and smoothly, although there is a little wait (longer than LuminarAI) when using the Sky Swap AI feature.A nice and simple interface with decent features for newbies. The biggest difference I found was the performance of the the software. ![]() This was previously available as a plug-in, so it’s nice to see it available here ON1 NoNoise AI is a welcome addition to the package, and brings fantastic tech-leading noise removal software to an already great lineup of features. Although I’ve not had chance to try out this feature, I am sure it’ll be useful to many people. Time-lapse creation is also a great feature added to add to ON1. You also have the ability to fine tune the sky, add foreground lighting to match the sky and add water reflections, mimicking the sky above. I have had time to play with this, and it works very well. The key features of the latest version, as listed by ON1 are as follows:įor many people, the biggest addition that they have wanted for a long time is the sky replacement “Sky Swap AI” feature. If it was compared to Adobe’s Lightroom and Photoshop, you could think of it as a Lightroom replacement, with many extra features that you would normally do in Photoshop also very accessible.Īnyone familiar with modern editing software should be very at home with its interface as it’s very intuitive and follows a similar layout to many other top packages. It is an all in one professional quality photo editing package. It has extra features compared to the last update, plus substantial performance improvements. ON1 Photo Raw 2022 is an update to the already proficient ON1 Photo Raw 2021. As always this is an independent review, and I do have an affiliate link in which you can order the software. It’s that time of year when new software packages get released for their yearly update. ![]()
