Looks like a good tool for anyone in a hurry and doesn’t want to learn Photoshop 👍

Fantastic !!!. A pleasure to see you working on the pictures !! Thanks Dave

Calculator method for the win! Thanks, again!

,,,love those .pdf notes!!

Thank you again, Dave. That was really eye-opening. I will probably use the first method with the mask calculator. The more I use it, the more I like it!

Dave, I prefer what you call 'Method #1'. God tutorial.

My masking choice: the Mask Calculator,,,love it!

Once again Dave another brilliant tutorial, I so love Fridays.

Dave, I like method one using active selection. Thank you for the in-depth tour of the object selection tool.

both are great and I will use both for me. As always, thank you for the simple way of communicating your work in Photoshop and the TK8 panel. Greetings from Poland from the city of "Fortress Przemyśl".

Great as always, Dave! I'm a little bit late, but exploring this three videos again, with my nowadays knowledge of TK8.

Another masterclass. Week after week you show us new ways to use these tools.

I appreciated the details around "object finder" and the PDF notes. Very useful! As far as my preference of the 2 methods, I like first one better. To me is more straightforward.

Another great one. Love the repetition. Method 1.

I love the TK8 panel!!!, and I love the mask calculator! Wasn't using the object selection as much as the quick selection tool. You made me a believer on that. Don't think I'll try the other method, as I am so used to using the mask calculator. I use it in a variety of ways on every image I work on! Great video. I always learn new ways to do things. It's always great to have more tools in the tool box to tackle issues.

Hi Dave: I really enjoyed this video and I appreciated the detailed explanation of how to effectively use the Selection Tool. At this point-in-time, I haven't decided which method to use. It is nice to know how to use both methods. Thanks again for creating and sharing. Cheers, Keith

I watch a lot of Photoshop KZread Videos. I can easily say you have the best. I was always debating on getting the TK panel. But I am so glad I did - I can't believe how much better and easier it has made my editing. But it is all your TK Fridays that made me feel so comfortable with it. I love how you supply the original image. How we can follow along. I never used the notes before - But I started using those as well - Makes it so much easier to get the concepts. But you have so much repetition that it really ingrains the concepts in your brain. But you are always giving us new things as well. I now edit the images on my own and compare them to how you do them. Thank you for a great channel

Thanks again Dave for another exceptional tutorial. At last, with the help of your pdf instructions, I think I am beginning to get it!!

Another amazing tutorial full of a lot of information. Thanks very much Dave,I think I would most probably use the first method ( mask calculator) ... 😊

This was a very helpful video. I love the Photoshop Object Selection tool. It selects much better than the Luminar Neo and ON1 Raw 2023 AI masking. Pairing it with TK8, as you have shown, takes it to a whole new level. This may be a type of TK8 tutorial to do more of by focusing on a select feature of TK8 and showing creative uses of it. Thanks for keeping this series going.

Thanks Dave! really enjoyed this one

Happiness is TK Friday! Wow. You took several techniques I knew from watching your previous tutorials and then added many additional tricks and tips. For me method 1 is more comfortable. So I will experiment with method 2. There is a place for each method. As usual, your great teaching style made using these methods easy to follow and use. Again you increased my post processing knowledge. Thanks Dave!

Excellent demo, Dave, on how to combine hard-edge Object Selection tool selections with naturally feathered pixel-based masks (luminosity/color/zone masks) to make some extremely precise adjustments. It's a powerful combination. And kudos for figuring out two different ways to do this using TK8. Thanks also for the in-depth look at the Object Selection tool settings. Going forward I think it will be easier to achieve the results I'm hoping for.

I think that is the best summary of the object selection tool that I have come across. So many thanks for that Dave.

Excellent! Thank you Dave, I like the calculator method but I'm going to use both

I love the way you arranged your workspace . If you make a parenthesis about this on your next videos I will greatly appreciate it. Thanks for the excellent tutorials.

Hi Dave, Once again you've done a great job of teaching us some new tricks. The first method seems a little less 'messy' than the second, although I like them both. I'll probably use both methods from now on and see if there are some circumstances that one works better than the other. Probably not, but you never know unless you try it out. Looking forward to next week, to more interesting techniques to use on our own photos. Between your tutorials and Sean Bagshaw's I'm becoming a Photoshop convert. It's nice to have ON1 and Luminar Neo but it's a far better feeling when you can achieve such great results without reverting to those. Thanks again for a great video, see you next week.

I think I will stick with the calculator method. Just going to have to work with the method to get the full understanding of it. Thanks again for the tutorial, really appreciate each and every one. The notes are a big help as well.

Thanks for the great lesson, Dave. I have used the object select tool on a limited basis. I now feel like I can get so much more out of it. I prefer the calculator method because I use it so much and I am comfortable with it. This is a excellent tutorial.

As usual, I always look forward to TK Fridays. But today, you really outdid yourself - could be one of, if not my favorite episode EVER! I was much more familiar with Method 1, but will have to try Method 2 for a while to decide my favorite. I had to replay & watch very slowly to practice & look forward now to trying it out on my images. Not only love your "how to's", but really enjoy your vision. I'm sure I'll go back to this one.

Dave, For your info when using the object selection tool there is a drop down menu select subject or using creative cloud. Some time the creative cloud will give a better selection. Thanks for all of your useful tutorials.

Thank you so much for this new vlog, Dave. I was just wondering, do you have any Patreon channel as well? Best wishes from distant Uruguay ! :) A Question for you : I am starting to learn to use the TK pannel ( I used to have version 5 lol) so, where on your vlogs should I start to get it well understood? Till now, even though I speak spanish, you are the ONLY teacher that I can really understand how you use the TK pannels! You are a wonderful teacher! Happy Weekend!

Yet another great video from Dave which not only gives an in-depth explanation of the Object Selection Tool but how to integrate it into the TX8 Panel. My first instinct was to prefer Method 1 but there is merit in Method 2. Nice to have a choice and a great image with which to experiment. The TX8 Panel is now so integrated into my workflow that I am not sure how I would work with it. I wish there were more 'Dave's' out there. Have been experimenting with DXO PhotoLab 6, a great RAW processor which can be nicely integrated into Photoshop - thanks to a great video by Dave. Unfortunately, DXO do not provide any deep dive training and nearly all the third-party videos are not in the same ballpark as Dave's, which is annoying. Great program but without proper training it is useless!

I do have Sample All Layers and Hard Edge check boxes checked. I have reset the tools, turned the Macbook on/off and it's always the same. I'm going to check with Adobe on this, if you have any ideas let me know. I might need to reinstall PS??? Will see.
