Luminar neo beta12/7/2023 ![]() ![]() Skylum has never stolen my money and has always delivered every pre-order product - for better or worse.Īlso, it is inconsistent to say they "lose interest in the current version of the product" and at the same time argue they are selling an "enhanced, extended version of the current and previous versions." I am old enough to remember something called Kickstater which used a similar model. Tries to raise money by pre-selling a discounted, unfinished, incomplete next version of the software, which appears to be just an enhanced, extended version of the current and previous versions.I would say they are attempting to implement, sometimes successfully, advanced AI technology. Appears to lose interest in the current version of the product, instead promoting a future release which may not be compatible with it.Yes.This has been the business model since MacPhun days of Creative Kit. Drops a fairly recent version of their main software that was last updated less than a year previously, giving it away free.I can't think of any other company which: I'm curious about the Skylum business model. Obviously, we need to "invest" time with useful apps, not "waste" time with slow and buggy apps. If so, I would not touch it even if Skylum gives Neo for free. Of course, it is even easier if you would tell me if Luminar Neo is just as slow as AI. ![]() After all, a "quick and easy fix" app as Luminar AI is NOT quick at all (so slow on my i7-10700 with 16GB RAM that I have to stop the app with Task Manager). I guess you imply Luminar 4 is even slower and buggier than AI because of its complexity. ![]() ![]() As I said earlier, Luminar 4 is not my "go to" but I can do good work with it and so can many pros who have made Youtube videos. I suspect some of the criticism comes from those who did not invest the time to really learn a program that has a very different interface and was therefore deemed unworthy. Luminar 4 has a learning curve much like PS and Photolab. Luminar AI is mostly for dilettantes who want to do a quick and easy fix. Luminar 4 is much more capable - a full blown editor. Luminar 4 and Luminar AI are as different as night and day. Its goal is high-quality, fast, easy, and enjoyable results for anyone who wants to edit their images and channel their creativity in new ways.I have NOT used Luminar 4 or prior, but based on my experience with Luminar AI (yes I bought it with Luminar X membership), it is a pretty useless app. This is a giant leap forward to more innovative, AI-based editing that targets the pains of photographers. The new engine has many minor background optimizations of memory use, which increases the speed of all processes inside the application, from uploading to applying editing effects, using layers, and exporting. It has a more flexible editing process, which means less memory is required to edit photos. It analyzes each image to recognize the depth of a scene and its subject allowing for unique control over exposure and tone. Get a clear sky with no cluttered phone or power lines. It automatically removes distracting elements in your cityscapes, urban landscapes, or travel photos. It calculates a photo’s depth and creates a 3D map, making it possible to spread light naturally in 3D space across a 2D image. This is an innovative image editor powered by AI technologies of the future that simplifies complex editing routines and enables creators to bring their boldest ideas to life. This opens up an opportunity for creative relighting in order to bring your artistic vision to life.Īutomatically remove distracting elements in your cityscapes, urban landscapes or travel photos. You can also relight the background and foreground separately - meaning you can darken parts of the image as well. Luminar Neo calculates the depth of a photo and creates a 3D map, making it possible to spread light naturally in 3D space across a 2D image. Relight backlit photos or darkened images in a click with the Relight AI feature. ![]()
