Product Review: Adobe Photoshop Mix
Mobile image editing is undoubtedly hindered by a number of hardware shortcomings, including the lack of horsepower required for intensive processing tasks. Adobe Photoshop Mix, a new iPad-only app, addresses that problem by turning to cloud-based servers to handle a trio of power-hungry Photoshop features that a tablet simply can’t handle. While Upright, Shake Reduction and Content-Aware Fill are the stars of this app (they’ve never before been available on a mobile device), Mix also offers less process-demanding tools and features, including a Cut Out tool for compositing, enhancements, preset “looks” and cropping.

When it comes to the quantity of lights that one needs, opinions are often heavily polarized and a hotly contested debate often rages. There are those that are staunch supporters of one light while others claim that a handful of lights are needed before anything meaningful can be done. Ultimately neither group is right as there is no definable minimum or maximum number of lights that one should use.
