Whenever I import photos now (LR4), they auto preset to black and white on 'Treatment' on the develop tab rather than 'Color'. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program hoping to get rid of preferences but it continues to do so.

Why does Lightroom convert black and white to color when importing? How can I get it back in orginal form without the automatic conversion?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe instructions say <<< In the Background panel, select the Background Color option and click the color swatch to choose the color. >>> But I can't seem to find any way of changing the background colour from the default, white. ! (I want black.)

View 1 Replies View RelatedHave an issue when importing pdf files into both X5 and X6. Fonts have been converted to outline and without Ghost script installed overlapping vectors fill in with white! With Ghost script installed center of fonts like e,b,p etc fill in with font color. Convert to eps prior to importing still has the issue? Also had some objects reposition on import but fixed if converted to eps? Processing a lot of client files for output to image so this is a real problem.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Smart Collection with one of the parameters being "Treatment - is - black and white". It works fine but not when I have "Lightroom B&W presets - B&W Look 5" applied.When I apply this preset the image does not "get pulled" into the Smart Collection. It works fine with the other B&W presets. And when an image is in the Smart Collection - by applying one of the other B&W presets - and then apply B&W Look 5 the image disappears from the Collection. Win 7 64-bit - Lr5 (not 5.2).

I save the RAW data from my camera chip to an external drive. then I import the ones that I want from that external into lightroom. At first I thought it was my camers. but what else could it be? Card reader? External drive? hard drive on computer?
Somehow I hit the "V" and it is converting all my pictures to black and white. How to I cancel that action?

View 6 Replies View RelatedAfter updating to LR 3.6 all of my files are now black & white 'highkey' and ugly as hell. Any new files I add are initially correct in the 'color' I shot them but once I select a single file they are all converted to the same crappy black/white. I uninstalled LR and reinstalled but the values are retained time and time again.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been working in Lightroom 4 on a photo that I took and I have everything the way I want it (these adjustments include increasing the saturation on some colors under the HSL tab). Now I am trying to make the top half of the picture just black and white, but when I chose the Adjustment Brush and sturn the Saturation down on it to -100 and start going over the top half of the picutre, some of the colors (the ones I turned the Saturation up on under the HSL tab) dull a little but do not go completely Black & White.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIssue I have of 'As Shot' WB value being lost when I import images into LR 5.2
Set-up: Leica M9-P (firmware v1.194); Summicron f2 50mm; LR 5.2;
Image capture WB value set to 5000k; ISO 160; DNG file capture
Everytime I import the DNG files it sets the WB value to the last value I had the slider set to and not the value I have set on my camera.
I have tried reloading the firmware on the camera just in case it wasn't saving the value in the file but this has not worked.
I use LR on two separate MacBook Pro laptops using a common catalogue and image library stored on a single external hard drive. The problem occurs on both computers.
It's hugely frustrating. I want to be able to adjust the value on the camera depending on the local light situation at the time of taking the shot and have this setting transfer into LR5.2 at time of imort. At the moment I am having to keep a manual note of the image number and setting so that I can recreate it in LR once imported.
I wanted to make a decal to place on the acrylic window of my PC. I found the perfect picture, which is in black and white. For it to look right though, I need to switch the black to white, and vice versa. Is there a way with Photoshop to automatically switch these, instead of having to manually switch them.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI shoot on a Canon 600D in colour JPG mode. The camera is tethered to a laptop that runs some photo booth software. The software takes the images and makes a black and white image from them. After I have finished, I copy the individual (black and white) photos from one computer to another to work on them
My question is this:
When I open up the folder of JPG images or load them into Lightroom (library multi view) on the second computer. The thumbnails appear in colour and then after about 1 second, flick to black and white. When I open up the file in full/single view/windows viewer, the large image is in black and white.
Now given that the colour information is clearly embedded in the file somewhere - is there any way to get the full version in colour?
It's similar to if I shot RAW and it was showing me the embedded JPG preview - but as I say, at no point are the photos shot in RAW.
The colour profile is sRGB.
Using an old enlarger I managed to take pictures of old 6x6 cm black and white film negatives. And promised someone to do so with a lot of them (her father's heritage).
I have come up with the following temporary starting points:
My RAW files are imported as Black & White images. Did I click on something by mistake?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI use Lightroom 2.2 to import and convert RAW photos from my Panasonic Lumix LX3 to DNG files. Works great except for one thing:
If I shot a photo using the LX3's 'Black and White Dynamic' preset, Lightroom imports it and a few seconds later, the photo becomes colored (really yellow) instead of remaining black and white.
That's weird since I don't use any Lightroom preset when importing these photos. It seems like Lightroom is applying some type of auto-correction to these photos.
I try to use the adjustment brush to put color back into a black and white photo, but all it does now it color it red. How do I fix that?

If the pic's are shot in black and white with the Leica preset, LR3 is changing them into colour images immediately after the import.The pic's are shot in RAW
I applied a preset to an image, and overall I like it except that it has a pinkish tone to it. The develop panel shows it as a black and white (not just desaturated) image, and there is no tone applied through the split tone panel (both saturation levels set to 0%). I can't figure out where the color is coming from -- I'd like to reduce it or change the color without having to drag it into Photoshop.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a pretty standard workflow for my pictures, where i import as dng, adjust exposure and a few general parameters, and then convert them to black and white in Silver FX. But, there's one specific image that, when exported, looks warmer in the browser than in lightroom. I have investigated a bit on this, and here's what i've tested so far, without luck:
- Set color profile to v2 in colormunki.
- Recalibrate monitor and refresh color profile (colormunki).
- Set firefox gfx.colormanagement.mode to 1.
- Set color mode to black and white in LR. Re processed the image from scratch. Re exported.
This is the exported image:

there's a distinct warmish cast to the first image that i don't see on LR, and that i can't quite get rid of.
How do I turn off this feature and reverse the images back to the way I shot them?
