Whenever Adobe updates their software it seems as though one or two new headline features grab all the attention, while other second-tier tools and capabilities don't get the credit they deserve. Today's eye-opening tutorial with one of the world's foremost post-processing experts reveals six of these lesser-known upgrades you don't want to overlook because they can make your workflow faster, easier, and more creative.
