Chapter 5: Filters

Filters are how you can adjust the exposure, color, contrast, and style of your image in Luminar Flex.  The proper use of filters can significantly improve your image. Each filter is designed to solve specific problems or enhance an image in a particular way. The Filters section of the side panel shows any filters you have applied or that are included in a workspace.   

Filters can be stacked in any order to change their order of operations.  You can also add masks to filters to control their results. Filters can also have other properties like their blending mode and visibility adjusted.


You’ll learn more about each filter in the chapter “Using Filters.”
