What is Luminar 4?
Luminar is a low-cost all-in-one photo browser, image enhancement, photo-editing and effects program for Mac and PC that’s pioneering the use of AI for object recognition and intelligent selective editing.
Its AI Sky Replacement and AI Augmented Sky tools can automatically detect and mask existing skies and replace them with entirely new ones, adding clouds, planets, birds and other objects to your scenes. The AI Portrait Enhancement tools use similar AI technologies to automatically identify, select and enhance facial features in portraits.
Beyond that, Luminar also offers regular photo fixing tools as well as a range of creative filters, plus a catalog of Looks created by preset filter combinations.
Luminar works both as a standalone all-in-one program and as a plug-in for Photoshop, Photoshop Elements and Lightroom, and as an extension for Apple Photos on the Mac.
