In this video, we’ll explore exactly how to access and use this brand-new Photoshop tool, in version 27.5 of Photoshop Beta and test it on simple objects, product shots, faces, composites, and even complex subjects like bicycles, and see how well it preserves texture, detail, perspective, and resolution. We’ll also talk about where it looks incredibly convincing, where it starts to fall apart, how it behaves with masking and compositing, what happens when you rotate into areas the photo never captured, and of course, how many AI credits it actually uses. If you’ve been curious about Photoshop’s new Rotate Object tool and want an honest, practical deep dive before using it in your own workflow, this video will show you both the magic and the limitation

## Транскрипт

### The Miracle of Rotate Object []

This is a two-dimensional photo. But if you were to click on this button, you can now rotate this on a 3D space. What in the world is happening? However you like. That's crazy. Similarly, on this new background, there is no way the perspective of this car matches. But if you were to click on that button again, you can now move and adjust the car however you like. After you're done with your positioning, just apply it. And you can even add an additional magic. And it's even matched. Now, how is all of this happening? After Adobe showcased this feature in their sneak peek last year at the Adobe Max conference, this feature has finally made it to a version of Photoshop. In this video, we'll not only learn how to access it and use it, but also learn when it works, when it doesn't, what about faces, what about complex objects, can we use it for compositing? product shots? And most importantly, what about credits? And so much more. So, without any further ado, let's get started. Before you rush to try it, know that

### How to Access Rotate Object in Photoshop [0:53]

this feature right now is only available in the beta version of Photoshop. And keep in mind the beta version is different from the regular version of Photoshop. You can easily install Photoshop beta by opening up your Creative Cloud desktop app, go to apps, beta at the top, and from here you'll find Photoshop Beta. Just click on the install button and you're good to go. This feature is available in version 27. 5. So make sure you're in that version.

### How to Use Rotate Object [1:18]

Now, how do we apply this feature? Here's a blank canvas and I have opened Photoshop beta. You need to make sure that you're able to see the contextual taskbar. If not, right click outside the canvas and click on show contextual taskbar. Then drop in any image. To make it simpler, I'm just going to go to file, place free Adobe Stock images. That's by the way a great asset. I'm going to search for elephant and let's go with this photo. Click on add. Obviously, you can adjust it however you like, but for that button to show up, you need to have your transform active. If you were to press control or command T, or if that was already active in the contextual taskbar, you will see rotate object. That's one way of doing that. Another way is right-clicking and choosing rotate object. Another way is going to edit and then clicking on rotate object. Three ways of doing the same thing. Let's click right there. It automatically makes a cutout of the object and gives you a rotatable version. Keep in mind this is only a lowresolution preview. How good is it? Of course, you can also adjust the perspective. If you click and drag on this, it's like you captured it with a wide-angle lens. This is like a telephoto lens. You can adjust it however you like and then rotate it however you like, even top to bottom as well. And once you're happy with the position, don't worry about the resolution right now. Just click on done. Now have a look at something interesting. It gives you back the full resolution taking the exact texture from the original photo and it will generate in areas that it just cannot see. Let's say you rotated it. There are certain areas that were not in the original photo. Those areas would be generated and if you zoom in maybe you can tell. but other areas all of the details, the texture, everything will be taken from the original one. Now, after you've applied it, notice that this layer shows a new icon. That is a new type of layer called the rotate object layer. And if you have the rotate object layer selected in the contextual taskbar, you will see a button called edit rotation. If you click on that, you can edit the rotation at any point in time. By the way, another way to rotate is to click on the rotate button and use the slider right there. You also have the tilt button that rotates it in a different direction. And again, once you're happy with the position, you can click on done and it brings back the high resolution. Again, that is just the gist of this feature. If you wish to try this feature and don't have Photoshop, you can always try Photoshop for free. I'll leave a trial link in the description. Now when

### Product Photography Rotation [3:57]

it comes to product photography, can it maintain the same details? Let's see. So here we have a shoe sneaker. I have removed that with the remove tool on a new layer so that we could separate the shoe. So with the background layer selected, let's press control or command J and place it at the top. Now if you were to press control or command T, rotate object will show up. And if you were to apply that, it will automatically mask out the shoe. But if you want to have your own mask, you can create one. So I'm just going to click on remove background. It automatically does select subject and creates a mask for you. And if you have a mask already, as you can see in this layer, we just have the shoe. The rotate object will use that mask as a mask. Let's select this, press control or command T, and click on rotate object. Now you have it. I'm just going to possibly rotate it a little more this way. See, all of the details are showing up. So nicely. Now we will see how it does on the other side. But for right now, let's keep it this way and click on done. Let's see if it retains the stitching, the fabric texture, and everything. If we were to zoom in, all the details are still intact. This is incredibly good. Even the mesh right there, even the fabric texture, the laces, everything is just so darn on point. There is not a single thing that I can look at it and say, "All right, that is wrong. Maybe I'll fix little areas like that. Here's the before. As you can see, the photo and here's the after. " This is just incredibly useful for product photos. Just take a look at this. Insane. One of

### Rotating Faces [5:39]

the most difficult things to edit for any technology are the faces. It usually messes it up. If you were to rotate a face, will it still look like the same person? And the best way to check is using your own photo because nobody judges yourself better than you. I've already masked in the subject and added a black background. Now, I do recommend making a copy of the subject so you have the original by pressing control or command J. And let's work on this one. You can also click on this button in the contextual taskbar to open up transform and then click on rotate object. Now you also have your original subject and something to compare to. I'm just going to turn this off and now you can rotate it however you want. Now, there's no way AI can know how you exactly look like from the side. So, it's going to make a guess. So, we are just going to rotate to see if I still look like me. Maybe a little bit like this. And click on done. Now, from what I can see, it has invented the watch because it was not there in the original photo. Fully visible, but it did something there. I'm just going to arrange them side by side so you can see what is happening and compare. So, you tell me. Does the person on the right look like me? It has maintained original details in a lot of places. If you have a look at the teeth, they are the same. Nose very similar, but there are areas that it just could not see like the side of the hair. And that's where it can mess up slightly or generate its own detail. Similarly, the way I do my beard is a bit sharper. But AI doesn't know that. It kind of merges that and there is no way for AI to see that section of the photo. Also, you would notice that there was no watch visible in the original photo. So it kind of invented that for that particular angle. So from what I can understand, if you rotate it a little bit where you can still see the original details, it works fine. But if you were to rotate it too much where you have to see additional details, that's where it can slightly mess up. Now let's switch

### Compositing and Matching [7:23]

gears to compositing. And this is where masking and other features of Photoshop become extremely important. So here we have a dancer and a brand new background. First of all, we need to make the perfect mask. The latest select subject does an incredible job. By the way, you can also click on remove background. It automatically does select subject and creates a mask for you. Obviously, the perspective is not at all matching. Neither the colors. First, you need to make sure not the mask, but the layer is selected. Then, you can go to transform by pressing control or command T or clicking right there and then click on rotate object. Now that we have a 3D version of our subject, let's first make her smaller. Now you can rotate the subject however you want. But what I really wanted to see if it maintains those details. So a little more rotation like this. And of course by using this control you can adjust the perspective. So we going to keep it this much and hit enter or return or simply click on done. Now the great thing is it still maintains the details of her jewelry her face. Let's match the colors and we can do that by clicking on harmonize in the contextual taskbar. It automatically also creates the shadow for you matching the subject with that of the background. Look at the sunlight in the background and the shadow it has created it exactly that way. Now here's the real stress

### Extreme Complex Objects [8:38]

test with things that are incredibly complicated. We have a bicycle. We have the spokes, the gear, the knobs, the everything. Let's see if rotate object can handle it or loses the balance. Now I do agree this is low resolution, but this is a cycle I would not get on. And no matter how much you adjust the perspective, just look at the wheels. That's crazy wheels. I tried a lot to rotate it in various different directions, but it just didn't fix the wheel. But what if we apply? Maybe the higher resolution will fix it, but it doesn't. Wheels, cogs, and everything is messed up. There are random details here. This just breaks off for whatever reason. What is that? And even the gear and the cogs and the mechanics, it's

### What Happens When You Entirely Turn [9:18]

what is this? Now, one of the things we always wonder with tools like this is what if we completely turn back the object into areas that it just couldn't see. So, here I was making this composite. I'm just going to click on edit rotation because I had already rotated it. And then we will entirely rotate it to her back. So far, this looks good and maybe this will work. But once you click on done, look at what it does to the hair. What is that hair? Is that party decoration? It just creates the most random stuff. Look at this. Now

### How Much Credits Does it Consume? [9:49]

coming to the most important part of this video and that is how much credits does it consume. Keep in mind it is an AI feature. It needs internet to run. So definitely we cannot hope for Adobe to make it free. Let's see how much credits it consumes. So I'm going to click on the home button first. Click on my account icon right there. This tells me how many credits I have at the moment. 5200. Now let's get back to Photoshop by clicking on this button and again transform rotate object. And let's make a very simple adjustment and a simple rotation like so. Now obviously it did a pretty amazing job but how much credits did it consume? Let's go to home again and click on my profile. Earlier remember it was 5200. Right now it is 5180 which means 20 credits every time you click on rotate object. But after you have rotated it, if you edit the rotation again, does it consume credits? Let's say I do it this way. Click on done. Keep in mind it's upscaling again. Still a pretty amazing result. Let's go back to home. And in the profile, the good news is it's still 5180. So at least thankfully just consumes credits once every time you click on rotate object. And for every edit in that rotation, it doesn't consume anything.

### Verdict - Pros and Cons [11:03]

Let's talk about the pros and cons. This technology does an incredible job when it comes to maintaining the original texture. As we saw in the elephant example, here is the original photo. If you have a look at the mark, it's still there in the rotated version. And even if you were to zoom in, all the texture stays mostly intact. But when you do rotate something, it reveals certain areas that were not visible in the original photo. And in those areas, it can slightly mess up. For example, these areas were brought in from the original image. But this area, you can clearly see a pattern here. that these areas were generated. And in those areas, it can mess up. We saw the exact same issue in this example where we turned the subject. The details here are just from another planet. Secondly, it struggles with geometrical and symmetrical shapes and structures. Like you saw in the cycle example, here's the original. Once we try to rotate it, what the heck did happen to the wheels. Also, the cogs and pedals just went haywire. The next thing is it does consume 20 credits, but it only does that once when you click on rotate object. for every other edit to the rotation. Thankfully, it does not consume credits again, even if it upscales several times. Another issue I saw time and again is that it always created that white halo around the edge. If you have a look at the original, there is none of that. But if you have a look at the rotated one, there is that white halo all throughout. Thankfully, there's an easy way to fix that. You hold the control or command, click on the thumbnail of this layer. It creates a selection. And now, simply click on the mask button. With the mask selected, go to filter, other minimum. Set the preserve to roundness. And this allows you to push the mask inside. Obviously, this is too much. Slowly and gradually do it. And this should do the job. But again, at the same time, it also adds lots of halos around hair or fur. If you have a look at the original, there is none. But the rotated one, you just have to work through it. The next thing is it does not work with editable text or shapes. If you press control or command T here, you would see that rotate object is grayed out. Of course, you can right click on the text layer, rasterize, type, and then it will work. Go to transform, rotate object, and now it shouldn't have an issue. By the way, this is pretty good. And of course, this is an AI feature. It would need internet all the time. I wish Adobe created an offline version of this, but if it did, it wouldn't be able to charge credits, right? And finally, I wish the previews were not low res and every time we applied it, it wouldn't have to upscale every single detail. all over again. So
