In Luminar 4 I can't find several of my favorite filters from Luminar 3
Answered
I like Luminar 4, and Sky Replacement is just outstanding, but I can't find many of the great filters available in Luminar 3. What happened to them?
For example,
ISSUE FIXERS: Polarizing Filter.
CREATIVE: High Key, Image Radiance.
PROFESSIONAL: Channel Mixer, HSL.
UTILITY: My favorite tool --Highlights/Shadows with the extra adjustments not found in the new Highlights/Shadows in the Essentials "Light" section.

Hi Allen,
There have indeed been some changes in Luminar 4. You can find a comparison list of filters in Luminar 3 and how they translate to Luminar 4 here: https://media.macphun.com/uploads/uploads/skylum/pdf/Onboarding_Luminar_4_Blog_Post-2.pdf
To address your specific questions:Polarizing filter is no longer available - we recommend using the AI Sky Enhancer instead
High Key can be found in Portrait > High Key
Image Radiance has been renamed to Mystical and can be found in Creative > Mystical
Channel Mixer has been removed - however, if this was a significant part of your workflow please let us know a bit more about how you used it so we can pass the recommendation to our developers to bring it back.
HSL can be found under Essentials > Color > Advanced Settings
Highlights/Shadows is found in Essentials > Light. If you'd like to add an additional instance of this tool, please add an adjustment layer and use the Light tool.

Hi,
I also was looking for channel mixer and is disappointing it is not there anymore.
When you are trying to work with Infra Red pictures one of the steps is to use channel mixer to invert the red & Blue channel. This tool was very useful, now I need to do this on alternative software or go back to version 3.
Can it be added back? I'm really considering V3 was much more powerful and easy to use than this new version :(
