Hey John, I still use a G5 computer. Am I going to be out of the loop as of this version of PSCS5 and the next version of Lightroom as well? [Sorry, TM--I'm afraid so. --J.]

Definitely glad to see the focus on lens distortion correction. Unfortunately, it looks like this feature wasn’t in the ACR dialog. I guess in the context of going back and working on old photos, which may already be multi-layer files, having this feature in camera raw would not be ideal, but in almost every other usage scenario I can think of, being able to have this distortion handled in the RAW processing recipe seems more efficient and powerful. I’m hoping I’m wrong, but it’s looking like it might not be until CS6 that this arrives.
[Oh, one never knows... --J.]

I’d imagine knowing how to use the clone stamp tool will still be necessary. As we saw in this demo, as well as the one with the tree, content aware fill does sometimes leave noticeable artifacts behind. Sometimes its a repeating pattern from elsewhere in the image, other times its a smudged look around borders or distorted shapes. Whether such artifacts are acceptable will of course vary by person, but they’d bug me in my own work.

Like a chump I’ve been using the clone tool for 15 years and the healing brush for 5 (?) years. I demand to know why content-aware wasn’t released in CS1! Think of the hours/days/weeks I could have saved.

@William Hepner: To the best of my understanding (based on using Photoshop for almost 20 years now), Photoshop *is* a tool for the image professional — and not for the average Joe.

These new tools are great for the image professional. I fail to see how all these improvements aid the average Joe.

Cool new tools. But as far as I could tell, that little girl she got rid of made the photograph.

Wow, is that still only the patch matching stuff from the paper you linked to some time ago? I realized you'd get good results with it, but I didn't expect it to work that well …

John, it's false advertising, i've waited till the end, but your main title is wrong :) [I know; I'm kind of a bastard that way. ;-) --J.]

Add “start=xxx” without the quotation marks and substituting the number of seconds for xxx at the end of the video embed string, after the “&” that’s already at the end of the string–and do it in both places that the video embed string appears in the code.

I love the last sentence: “there is features that demo well and there is feature that let your work done”… good!
