Skylum luminar raw review12/10/2023 ![]() So is the new software worth taking a look at? If you are new to editing and want a quick and easy solution to your images, with tonnes of features to enhance your journey, then yes. ![]() The way this works may, I think, be the reason for the speed upgrade compared to previous software from Skylum. Once you apply your edit, the panel then resets the slider allowing you to build upon the edit at a later stage and allowing you to add and subtract adjustments dynamically as you see fit. If you use Snapseed for mobile editing you may find a similarity with the editing panel. The panels were intuitive and easy to use and had a lot of useful editing tools without being overwhelming. What I found was that Luminar Neo worked well with the raw file. This means that even beginners can get good results from the start and in turn experiment with different looks, effectively cutting out the need for multiple raw processing solutions like Lightroom and Photoshop. With a few clicks, I am able to make big changes quite quickly. ![]() In this video, I take a look at the results of working with Luminar Neo with a raw file, as opposed to processing it within Lightroom first or Photoshop. Even if you are not convinced about using Luminar Neo for your image processing, it could still open up some new options for you. One of the great things about Luminar Neo, however, is that it gives much more experienced users a chance to see what changes in workflow and editing techniques can be implemented. If this is your first foray into editing, then you may be quite impressed with what the software can do with your images. If you are new to photo editing and you want quick and simple edits without the kerfuffle of layers or subscription packages, this could also be the software for you. If you are a Luminar 4 or Luminar AI user, then the software will be an easy adjustment. I don't use it as a full editing package, only as a plugin, but so far it seems more than capable of producing the results as a full-blown editing package. Personally, I prefer it as it gets the results quicker for me. So is it faster? Well yes, and is it better than previous software from Skylum? Again that depends on what you are after from an end-user point of view. I have been testing it out and have been impressed by what I have seen so far. ![]() The photo editor is aimed squarely at the beginner and intermediate market. ![]()
