3 Ways to Use Color Droppers in ON1 Photo RAW 2026

That older Plus tip on color droppers is back, and it’s been reworked for ON1 Photo RAW 2026. In this lesson, you’ll fix white balance in seconds, target individual colors for adjustment, and paint in clouds that actually match your sky, all with the same tool. None of it requires masking or guesswork, just a click!

What You’ll Learn

• Fix color temperature by sampling any spot that should read as gray, no sliders needed
• Adjust a single color’s brightness, saturation, or hue using the Black and White and Color Enhancer filters
• Sample sky or cloud color so anything you paint in blends with the light already in your scene
• Paint in cloud shapes with zero feathering so the edges stay crisp instead of soft
