- In this video, I review the big Luminar Neo update with features like twilight enhancer and water enhancer. Do we even need lightroom or photoshop anymore I wonder? This image editing software is packed with new features like GenErase, Batch HDR merge, luminosity masks and object selection.

One of the best videos of Neo's updates with clear explanations of the new features, thanks! Please do some more videos on Luminar Neo.
Wasn't sure when the video was all about landscapes, but when you transitioned to luminosity masks and gen erase, I'm sold! Brilliant stuff
Thanks for the content. off topic I want to ask. Which graphics tablet do you use?
Tethering, perspective control, complete DNG workflow, mobile and cloud version, just a couple of things I believe it's still lacking. But a great update in the right direction. Great work.
Hey Mark, nice informative video besides questioning us if we need LR or PS. What are your thoughts about ON1. Have you ever used it? If so which one have you liked?
Thank you my friend!!!📸📸
Luminar only edits, Lightroom's strength is as a DAM. Add in that you can't name layers or add keywords in Luminar. Use LR with Luminar as a plugin seems a marriage made in heaven
is it possible to trial this software?
I installed it and tried to edit a family photo I recently took. It did a horrible job handling faces. Working off M1 Pro. These videos always convince me to try it again. Will stick with Lightroom/photoshop for the foreseeable future
Its Skylum so therefore no thanks. Have been bitten before by their awful business practices - releasing software at huge discount then sunsetting it straight afterwards with no upgrade path, promising features that never get added then releasing a new product with said features. Just no.
You're right. They did this in the past a LOT. I have three or four older programs they simply dropped. I almost didn't get Neo, but so far, they've done what they said and seem to be sticking with this program. I like it quite a lot (I also use PS, ON1, and various Topaz modules). It's now part of my workflow. Even if they stopped improving it tomorrow, at it's current level of development, I'd consider it worth my time and money investment.
You forgot to mention that this is a paid advertisement I don't want to see you accidentally getting in trouble.
@MarkMcGeephotos are you switching 100% to Luminar Neo? Is so do you plan on redoing some of your editing videos using Luminar? Great video as always! Keep up the great work.
There's no way any pro would exclusively use this
Great video Mark. I've been using Bridge & Photoshop from many years and often think about switching to Luminar Neo. I'm a bit confused around the extras that they sell along side the main program. What would I need to purchase to have something similar to Photoshop ? Thanks Mark.
Stay with Adobe. Luminar is a great tool for beginners, but if you need specific and precise features it lacks and, sometimes, the results you have with it are terrible
Great, informative video. Thanks Phil AKA Keepclickingphotography
Love you mark you are so helpful Loved all of your videos.
Tried it once and it has some interesting features, but I dont live overedited stuff and it is VERY easy to overdo it with luminar. Also I think everyone should probably have a basic workflow which can be replicated with several apps, not relying on fancy stuff too heavily. But its a nice little toy, which will never replace something like lightroom for me though.
Maybe I don't understand it, but the masking tool is crap. If you switch to the editing tool, you can't go back and edit the mask. Am I missing something? Can someone explain to me how to edit the masks afterwards? Thx. Great video nonetheless.
Yes we do, anyone having trouble updating the Lightroom plug in?
I don't rent software, I will only buy it.
everyone says it sucks because of the constant upsells and ads...has this been changed to be less annoying?
Hate the fact it blurs the photo when you're moving any sliders around, so you cannot see what it's actually done until you stop. Plus never adding what they said they would, just bought out a new version every time. Waste of money, bad practice business wise.
no space color available like adobe RGB ...... unusable for professional photography and prints......
Thank you for this video; but I do not like the way Luminar tries to take money away from our pockets; I'm tired of their "money practice" , always trying to sell us more and more and more things / with Photoshop+Lightroom I pay a fixed amount/month since many many many years, and that's all
With Gen Expand, you took 9 seconds to show it, but didn't go into depth about the resolution quality etc so kinda pointless especially when you are trying to say you don't need PS anymore.... where is the actual derailed comparison?
Seems very much like a sponsored video
Excellent video! I kept lightroom and photoshop around for a while, then found myself never using them, always went to Luminar Neo first. So I ended up cancelling my subscription and never looked back. Luminar Neo is easier, more accurate, offers more and fun to use.
If you’re just a photo editor then yes. Otherwise no, don’t get rid of photoshop/lightroom.
Plus this video is an incentivised review from Luminar, it’s highly biased.
@@WanderFeetChronicles Regardless of the video, I was also using Premier Pro, then I tried DaVinci Resolve (Free Version) and found it to be superior to all others. I bought the Pro Version of Resolve, it's basically Hollywood. Don't get me wrong, Lightroom, Photoshop, Premier etc are great, however, but there are other software products that are better depending on what you want and do.
Used to love your channel for the techniques and editing you showed us ..... however been totally put off lately by your Luminar Neo advertorials ...
Unfortunately the pricing structure is awful so no thanks. I thnk the answer is yes we need Photoshop. Still love your channel but prefer the ones not product based.
It's not pink, it's mauve.
It's 100% fine to have sponsored videos as long as the video is not about the sponsored product.
From skeptic to believer in 13:32 minutes! Great, on point video.
Heck pretty soon you won’t need to leave your couch. No thanks. I’m not a purist by any means but this seems to be over the top.
