km.au Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Hi, I saw the wonderful new feature announced about the divide layer and how it can be used to correct whitebalance/color casts. Great! I thought. However it is next to useless (for particular cases on removal of color casts) because on every case, the color of the divide fill layer will effect the brightness/value. For instance when using it to correct tungsten on walls, there will be patches that go pure white, 255, 255, 255. Is there a way to get Divide layer it to correct Hue/Saturation only? In photoshop, the curves tool can be used, with the middle color picker) to correct color casts and it is mighty effective. Is there a solution to this in AF?

carl123 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 This Photoshop video shows the divide layer in action and he shows how to recover details in the highlights after using it. Not sure it will help you but worth a try, maybe Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

NotMyFault Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Just my 2 cents: you could try to change the blend mode to hue, but this may disrupt the filter effect. Or reduce opacity to limit side effects or make a copy of the original layer, but it on top, and use a blend mode wich restores the lost luminosity (brightness).
