Adobe has announced that it’s working on a feature for Photoshop called Live Co-Editing, which lets multiple people view and edit the same document at once. The concept will be familiar to anyone who’s worked in a Google Doc with other people, though applied to photo or graphical editing instead of word processing.

The feature is coming next week as a private beta, so it won’t immediately be accessible to everyone. If you sign up for the beta and are accepted, you’ll be able to use it via the share button, similar to the existing collaboration feature. However, instead of only one person being able to work on the document at once, you’ll have the option to turn on Live Co-Editing.
Adobe’s press release details some examples of when the ability to work on the same Photoshop document could be useful. The first is the most obvious one, where there’s a big project with several pieces that designers can work on at once. It could also be handy if a teacher is trying to explain a specific process to a student or if you’re on a call with a client and want them to be able to see your work in as much detail as possible.
The announcement is Adobe’s latest move to present Photoshop and its other products as services rather than simply applications, along with the increasing number of built-in generative AI features. It may hope that these features will help justify the ongoing cost of a subscription, especially as some tiers of that subscription are getting more expensive. To start, Live Co-Editing will be available on the desktop and web versions of Photoshop.
Fujifilm’s X-M5 is an entry-level mirrorless APS-C camera that’s a solid, though not perfect, choice for beginners.
Sony’s Alpha 1 II adds pre-capture and improved autofocus to its high-speed, high-res pro mirrorless model.
The Lumix S9 is Panasonic’s newest full-frame mirrorless camera. It allows users to create their own custom looks for out-of-camera colors and is the first full-frame Lumix camera aimed squarely at social media content creators.
The Nikon Z50 II adds a color profile button – sound familiar? – 3D tracking, cloud connectivity, and more.

Our DPREVIEW Tribute:
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview closed on 10 April 2023. This difficult decision was part of the annual operating plan review that parent company, Amazon, shared earlier this year.
Over the course of 25 years, DP Review built up a reputation as being one of the most informative places to go for information about that new camera or lens you’re after. DP Review began as an independent reviews site based in the UK in 1998, the brainchild of Philip and Joanna Askey, but it was eventually purchased by Amazon in 2007 and relocated over to Seattle in the USA in 2010.
Cheers DPReview – thanks for the great work and content that guided photographers, videographers and techno junkies the world over!
