other features in this

document are new in
Photoshop CS2.
Spot Healing Brush
Effortless, one-click retouching is yours with the advanced power of the new, Photoshop CS2 Spot Healing Brush.
Click or paint flaws away, remove entire objects, and heal across all layers with your choice of blending and
sample modes — even in 16-bit and CMYK images. The advanced Spot Healing Brush analyzes the area around
the tool as you use it, and automatically samples the best pixels to use for healing the clicked or painted area.
With the Spot Healing Brush, one click is all it takes to replace even entire objects in an image.
One-Click Red Eye Tool
Enjoy simple, accurate correction of the 'red eye' caused by retinal flash reflection, with advanced control for
pupil size and darkening effect when you want it.
Optical Lens Correction
Quickly and efficiently correct a
wide range of common camera
lens distortion flaws from a
single easy-to-use interface.
Eliminate barrel or pincushion
distortion, chromatic aberration,
vignetting, and perspective flaws
in all three dimensions, and do it
in one pass with simple, intuitive
controls, a live preview and an
alignment grid.
Animation
Quickly create dynamic
GIF animations directly in
Photoshop CS2 software with
the new Animation palette and
Layer palette animation options.
Smart Sharpen
Easily counteract common image blurring with fine correction
control based on the specific blur types — motion, lens and
Gaussian. Smart Sharpen is a cut above the familiar Unsharp
Mask, with effective preservation of edge details and discrete
advanced sharpening of shadows and highlights.
Shadow/Highlight
Quickly enhancing the detail in shadows and reducing
overexposed highlights, with discrete control of midtones
contrast, the popular Shadow/Highlight adjustment is now
available for CMYK images.
Enhanced 16-bit Filter Support
In Photoshop CS2, even more filters have been upgraded to 16-bit
compatibility, including Liquify and Lens Blur.
After applying Optical Lens Correction, the surface-curving distortion caused by the wide
angle lens and low shooting angle are eliminated. The adjustable grid provides constant
visual feedback, so you can easily tell when the horizontal and vertical surfaces in your shot
are lined up properly.
Before
After
Smart Sharpen intelligently enhances the detail in
your image, with discrete adjustments for shadows
and highlights in its Advanced options.
