This relighting effect has been enhanced with improved color accuracy and better performance in reflections. When you choose a new sky for your image, especially one with dramatically different colors, Luminar AI works to relight the entire scene to fit your newly selected sky. With Update 3, performance is further improved with more realistic reflections, colors and additional user control. Luminar AI added water reflections to Sky AI in Update 2. Further, sliders for Haze, Warmth, Brightness and Water Blur are now available. Reflections should be more accurate now with improved sky placement performance. This means that when you replace a sky in a scene with water, the new sky will be reflected in the water, even when that water isn't perfectly smooth. In an earlier update, water reflections were added to Sky AI. When a new sky is selected, Sky AI includes better horizon detection, refined edge detection and improved sky integration. Skylum promises improved, more photorealistic results with improved control and accuracy. Sky AI has undergone even more improvements in Update 3. With Update 3, Luminar AI is now natively supported for Apple M1 Macs. This means that users on Windows can now open and edit photos taken on iPhones and other iOS devices.

For users on all machines, Update 3 adds HEIC image support. Luminar AI Update 3 adds full, native support for Apple Silicon, allowing macOS users fortunate to have one of Apple's impressive machines to take advantage of the M1's speed when using Luminar. Joining the likes of Adobe Photoshop and Capture One, Skylum's Luminar AI now has Apple M1 support. Update 3 reflects this ethos,' said Ivan Kutanin, Skylum's new CEO.
