In DxO Photolab Elite Complete, one can adjust exposure for specific image exposure ranges without masking , such as highlights, midtones, shadows, and blacks. As a number of my subjects, particularly birds in flight, are backlit, this allows me to recover detail without masking each image separately. I have looked for this capability in Photo AI 3 (currently 3.0.3) but do not seem to find it, nor can I find a detailed user manual – Photo AI seems to be mostly automatic with only a change of AI model allowed for the different stages. Does Photo AI 3 have the ability to separately adjust exposure by exposure range in a raw or processed image?
Currently, this is not an option in Topaz Photo AI; however, we do offer the Adjust Lighting feature. I will link some information below for you to review:
More information:
I put a RAW file into Photo AI, and output it to DNG. Then open the DNG in Luminar Neo. The DNG’s highlight range was gone. I could not adjust highlight back. But if I open the RWA file in Luminar Neo. I can adjust highlight to recover many details and smooth dynamic range.
Therefore, I have to suggest Topaz strongly, take a look at highlight adjust function.
