Jump Into the Best New Features of Photoshop CC 2020

A simple click and boom, the background is gone from behind the subject of your image. It can't be this easy, right? It can be. It is, all thanks to the latest Adobe Photoshop CC 2020 update. And the fun doesn't stop there. 

In this tutorial, Unmesh Dinda of PiXimperfect takes us through the highlights of Adobe's latest update to its flagship app, including the mind-blowingly easy new way to remove the background of an image. Dinda says that while the update isn't loaded up with new features, Adobe has made many of Photoshop's existing features faster and easier to use. 

He has compiled a list of the 20 best improvements to the software and takes us step by step through each one to show off Photoshop's powerful new abilities. Conveniently, he includes a time-stamped list of when each feature will be discussed during the tutorial, allowing viewers to skip ahead to the content most relevant to them (skip to the 50-second mark of the video to see the list). Among the features he explores are the ability to import directly from an iPhone or iPad, animated GIF support, improved subject selection, and much more.

Too late, I left the greedy Adobe train this year. C1 and other apps fill the gap at a much better price.

Yup and simple click and then all the time cleaning up the areas it ignores. They will never get this right but I see they are working on a way to remove retouching from images. They sure are stupid.

The Selections may be better (in Adobe's opinion) but they are still not good enough. They require as much additional work to perfect as they always did.

This is definitely the best video tutorial on the subject.
