Learn how to use the Remove tool in Adobe Camera Raw.
The Remove tool in Camera Raw lets you repair a selected area of an image by either using generative AI or sampling from a different area of the same image.
Using the Remove tool on a raw image means directly processing the raw image data. Working with raw image data directly can provide cleaner matches for retouching (Remove, Heal, or Clone) actions. Also, since any edits and modifications to camera raw images are stored in sidecar files, this process is non-destructive.
The Spot Removal tool in Adobe Camera Raw has been renamed to Remove. You can also use Adobe-Firefly powered Generative AI feature to remove unwanted objects even on complex backgrounds.
Use the Remove tool
- Open a camera raw file, OR
- With an image open in Photoshop, select Filter > Camera Raw Filter.
-
-
Select one of the following features available in the Remove tool:
- Remove - Removes unwanted objects like tourists, bags, poles, etc. You can use Generative AI or Object Aware to remove identified objects.
- Heal - Matches the sampled area's texture, lighting, and shading to the selected location.
- Clone - Applies the sampled area of the image to the selected location.
-
Use the Size and Opacity slider to adjust the brush size and mask opacity before brushing over the object you want to remove. The Feather slider is available only in the Heal and Clone tools.

Clean up a photo with the Visualize Spots feature
While working on a computer screen, you may be able to identify and remove the most visible spots or imperfections. However, when you print a photo at its full resolution, the printed output may contain many imperfections that are not visible on a computer screen. These imperfections could be of many types: dust on a camera sensor, blemishes on a model's skin in a portrait, tiny wisps of clouds on blue skies. At full resolution, these imperfections are visually distracting.
