    Lumenzia 11.9.4 for Photoshop (Win/macOS) | 102 Mb

    [​IMG]


    Lumenzia v11 is fully compatible with my Dodging & Burning Master Course and Exposure Blending Master Course. None of workflows demonstrated in the courses have changed, and there is more information in section 1 to help answer any questions.

    Fun fact: If you've been using Lumenzia since v1, you've now received 2,393 (free) new features, updates, and bug fixes in total.
    Note: Lumenzia v11 requires Photoshop v24.2 or later, and runs natively on any machine which can run the required version of Photoshop (this includes native support for Apple Silicon).

    If you are using Photoshop CS6 or an older version of CC, please install Lumenzia v9 (distributed in the same ZIP download).
    Note: The ZIP download no longer has a standalone copy of the user manual (this duplication creates a risk it may not be in sync with the version in the panel). Just go to the flyout menu at top-right of Lumenzia v11 to find the user manuals.

    @mr.c - you'll want to update your title

    New version: Lumenzia 11.9.5 for Photoshop (Win/macOS) | 103 Mb

    as per the release notes: https://gregbenzphotography.com/lumenzia-releasenotes

    Lumenzia v11.9.5 (April 26, 2026)

    Lumenzia v11 is fully compatible with my Dodging & Burning Master Course and Exposure Blending Master Course. None of workflows demonstrated in the courses have changed (see section 1 in the course for more info on any updates).

    Fun fact: If you've been using Lumenzia since v1, you've now received 2,403 (free) new features, updates, and bug fixes in total.

    This version requires Photoshop v25.5 or later. Be sure to click "Tutorials" and see the "Quick Start" video to learn about key resources (user manual, "?" button, etc).

    Lumenzia updates include:

    • New: "PreBlend" supports alignment of smart objects for exposure blending! This is ideal for keeping your RAW while exposure blending. You can also use this to prepare for focus stacking to support RAW workflows.
    • New: PreBlend has a dedicated "Focus Stack" tab, including support for smart objects. Open your images as layers in Photoshop and click "stack" to align your smart objects, create automatic masks to blend the layers, and create correction layers. When you have the Photoshop "move" tool active, you may right click anywhere on the image and then click on the layer name to make the correct layer's mask active and switch to the brush so you can immediately paint your correction. [ Note: focus stacking demands proper image capture for successful results. See Focus Stacking: from Start to Finish for an in-depth tutorial on focus stacking capture and workflows - section 4.6 includes details on this new feature, video coming soon. ]
    • Updated: Flyout / tooltips & info / document & PS info now lists HDR headroom for the active monitor (i.e. the one with the active document if using multiple monitors). For performance reasons, this value is not updated immediately after you change display brightness, but it will update fairly quickly as you continue to work.
    • Updated: Added ASUS P16 and Lenovo Yoga Aura G-Bench test results.


    Lumenzia Basics updates include:

    • Updated: The "RAW" button now lets you work on locked layers (it will restore the lock after you're doing editing). This is helpful when focus stacking, as the locking prevents accidental movement of the layer and you may use this button to edit the RAW processing without having to unlock and re-lock.
    Note: this is a massive update to support the requirements behind aligning smart objects, I may call this Lumenzia v12 once I have tutorials ready. I've been working on this feature for years to facilitate focus stacking the way I'd like to do it.

    Yes sir ;-) thanks for the heads-up. Somehow not receiving those updates. Good to know a new version is out.

    Nope, a common problem for Mac users. You can't use the built in program. You have to use something like 7-zip or Keka.
