Lightroom :: How To Create A Pre-Set Leaving Exposure Unchanged

Feb 2, 2013

LR4.3, Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
 
I have been trying to create a preset that updates the Process Version to 2012, changes contrast, highlights and shadows, but leaves the Exposure unchanged.
 
So, I change the Process Version to 2012, set the sliders for contrast, highlights and shadows where I want, and then I create the preset, leaving Exposure (and a bunch of other things) unchecked.
 
Then, I apply the preset to a photo that is currently Process Version 2010. The process version, contrast, highlights and shadows all change as expected, but the Exposure goes to zero.

Lightroom :: How To Calculate Exposure

Sep 4, 2013

Why when Lightroom loads images (in develop module), all images turns gray and dark (the preview looks fine - expected exposure and full of colour). All settings are on 0, no auto tuning or presets are applied.
 
Also, when I take pictures (Nikon D4), they looks fine in my back screen and I would guess D4 knows how to calculate exposure. But in Lightroom they all come out at least 1 full stop unexposed, so after adjusting exposure I got unnecessary noise grain (and work).
 
I even tried to upload thought Nikon View NX (soft for Nikon transfers) first, as I was hoping that after importing files to Lightrooms I will also get camera colour settings (like Landscape, Portrait, Vivid, etc.).
 
This is screenshoot - when Lightroom loads/process all images they all turn so dark as selected image. Neighboring sunflowers all were the same, and they was as I expected them to be.. Before they turn dark...

Lightroom :: 3 - Replacing Photos In Catalog Leaving Original Metadata Intact

Feb 11, 2012

I have about 50 images in a LR3 catalog. I modified all the metadata for each. They are all jpegs and were pre-processed by a specialized image editing program before import. I now find I have to replace all 50 with new versions. I really don't want to re-do all the metadata. Is there any way to have LR overwrite the originals leaving the original metadata intact? The file names are the same.

Lightroom :: Match Total Exposure

Jan 29, 2013

I am getting an Error message stating "There was an error calculating the effective exposure for the target photo.  No photos were changed. The files are jpegs.  Is this an issue?  I have been successful using this Develop feature on a few files, also jpegs, but more often than not, I am getting this error message.  The selected file has an exposure adjustment done in the Develop module.  Does MTE only work when the originals are significantly different in their original exposure?

Lightroom :: How To Increase Exposure By 1 Or 2 F-stops For HDR

Mar 21, 2013

My goal is to:
 
1) Take an existing picture.
 
2) Make two more copies of it.
 
3) Alter the exposure compensation of the copies by either exactly 1 or 2 stops up or down as needed.
 
4) Merge those shots to form a quasi-HDR composite image.
 
When I open the master/source picture in Lightroom, how do I change the exposure by exactly one or two stops leaving all of the other settings untouched?
 
Yes, I know the master exposure slider goes up to 5.00, but what exactly do those values mean if anything in direct correlation to f-stop's? Is it accurate? how changing the exposure is executed.

Lightroom :: Can LR Filter By Exposure Bias

Lightroom :: Determine ADL Exposure Variation?

Dec 26, 2011

As most of you probably know, Lightroom cannot properly deal with Nikon's Active Delighting -- it just "ignores" the information, whereas vendor specific software interprets that information. Since vendor specific information can later on redo the ADL development process which usually happens inside the camera the necessary information must somewhere be preserved.
 
Most metadata-editors know settings like ADL off, moderate, high, etc. But that cannot be all there is. I noticed that my D7000 varies the under-exposure (1/3 EV -> 1 EV) in the same ADL-setting. What I'm looking for is exactly that amount of under-exposure (or a value from which I can derive that).

Lightroom :: Add Equal Exposure Boost Across Whole Shoot

Mar 19, 2012

It seems that even with a calibrated screen and across multiple print labs and colour profiles, my prints will always come out about a third stop darker than what looked good on the screen. I attribute this to the screen emitting light vs. the page only reflecting it. My question: is there an efficient way to give an equal exposure boost across an entire shoot? I don't want to sync a specific exposure setting. I want to make virtual copies for print and then add maybe 0.3 exposure to all files, on top of their current setting.
 
The only way I can think do to it now is to export 16-bit tiffs which will reset the exposure to 0.00 for those files, and then sync them all at +0.3 exposure. This is really inefficient for time and hard drive space. Even a preset will only set a specific overall exposure setting. I want a preset that adds exposure to the existing number.

Lightroom :: How To Find Images With A Certain Exposure Bias

Sep 1, 2013

I have a group of about 500 images I took yesterday.  I want to find all images out of that group that have a certain exposure compensation (exposure bias).  I am trying to create a smart collection of these but am seeming to have problems doing so.  I have set up the following criteria: Date = 2013-31-13; and Searchable EXIF = 1/3.  I've tried other variations.  The best I can do is get 17 images put into the smart collection, but only some of them have an Exposure Bias of 1/3; others have a bias of 0.  I know I have quite a few more with exposure bias of 1/3.
 
How can I do this....again, I want to find all images with a certain exposure bias, either 0, 1/3, or 2/3.
 
I have LR 4.4.

Photoshop :: CS4 Opens Unchanged File With Changes...

Apr 15, 2009

I opened a raw file from a CD in photoshop cs4, lets call it photo1.nef. 2) I saved the file with a different name on my HARD DRIVE after making changes, photo1b.tif. I did not in any shape or form save the file on the CD (can't anyways). 3) Now, whenever I open the original file, photo1.nef on the CD it opens with all the changes I made previously to the file saved as photo1b.tif (remember this is the original unchanged file not the file I changed). But, when looking at thumbnails it appears to be the unchanged version of the file. I have closed photoshop and deleted all my temp files and still it opens the file with the changes, even though other programs open the file in it's original state without any of my changes.

Lightroom :: Brush Tool Exposure Adjustment Inadequate

Oct 28, 2013

I'm still using Lightroom 3.
 
I'm trying to fix the exposure on the TV screen using the brush tool, and it's not doing the job at all. Even with multiple overlays of adjustments it's not changing the exposure nearly enough, and you really can't see the game at all. The white areas of the image on the screen are remaining that way and the rest is just slightly darker and becoming less saturated as well.
 
I thought maybe LR was just not up to such a radical adjustment and that I need to use Photoshop (which I don't own), but then I tried changing the exposure on the whole photo, and taking it down to zero made an enormous difference on the TV screen, which turned out at the correct exposure, well saturated, with only a little loss of data. This tells me that the data is there in the image--so why can't I get it locally with the brush tool?
 
After that I tried leaving the whole image underexposed and then using the brush tool to increase the exposure everywhere but the TV screen, but it stayed pretty dark.

Lightroom :: Use Adjustment Brush To Adjust Exposure On Photos

Lightroom :: Specify Begin And End Exposure Adjustment On Gradient Tool?

Nov 10, 2011

Is there a way to specify the begin and end exposure adjustment on the gradient tool?
 
What I really want to do is apply an even exposure adjustment to the bottom section of an image. There's a hard line where I want the adjustment to begin, so I don't really need a gradient. I know I can do this with the adjustment, but that requires passing the brush over a large section of the image and, of course, being very careful in lining the edge of the brush up with the edge of what I want to lighten. I'd like to be able to put a line across the image and say "lighten everything below this line" by x amount.

Lightroom :: Loading Photos - Colour And Exposure Looks Different Than In A Camera?

Jan 22, 2013

when importing photos (raw files) to Lightroom they look very different than in the camera. At the very beginning photo looks more or less the same and then, a message „Loading…” is displayed and in a result the photo looks differently. It looks like with imposed dimmer yellow/red filter, higher contrast, much lower sharpness and what is most important, they are all overexposed sort of.  The screen settings are as sRGB, ICC profile: sRGB IEC61966-2.1. I am using DSLR Sony A700 that save photos in ARW format, Lightorrom just updated to version 4.3 .
