Quickly Straighten Images in Camera Raw

 

While Camera Raw can do amazing things with the White Balance menu, Exposure sliders, and other adjustments to get the best out of your images, there’s one tool I use all the time: the Straighten tool. Just click on the Straighten tool at the top of the window (or press A, the keyboard shortcut), select a starting point, and then click-and-drag across an element in the image that’s straight. Camera Raw will rotate the image as needed. Press Return (PC: Enter) to see what the image will look like without opening it.

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
