The slideshow module seems to autoadjust the blacks in my lowlight images making them appear grainy despite them looking right to my eye in the Develope module. How do I prevent this?

It would be nice to not have to create a string of songs in Garage band and then hope they transition nicely with your photos. Mostly, I just want the whole show to end gracefully. Even if I fit to music, it just ends. There is no option to add additional end screens either which could br useful for the abruptness. My slide show is long so I have to listen to the whole thing every time I want to see if my adjustment worked for the end. There does not appear to be a preview to just check the end and how it is performing with the music.
The picture in picture aspect is so crisp and nice. If the music just worked as nicely.
So my questions are:
1) How to fade the music at the end
2) Is there a way to preview the result without listening to the whole thing?
3) Does the newere LR5 provide an option for selecting more songs and manipulating the fades?
4) Is it possible to add additional end screens?
5) What is different about LR5 from LR 4?
I would like to create a background that begins with one color and gradually changes to a lighter color.
This type of background is on both the side panel and main panel of the page.
I am not looking for textures or vertical or horizontal lines.
Just a simple effect.
How would I go about creating this type of background?
I've a pdf created with auto cad 2013 printed with adobe pdf. I put it into the Photoshop cs6, but it always make my image lighter, and i have to adjust exposure, levels or brightness to see the image fine. And i don't like doing this because the image is not exactly the same...
I have this friend who work with the same tools and his pdf is perfect in his Photoshop. I think is a rastering issue because the pdfs looks great until the Photoshop interpret the image.
I have seen a problem like this before, and raised a question on the forum, but realised what was wrong (the problem happened on a full colour image, and once I set the Process to 2012 it went away). However it has cropped up again, and this time the image was imported directly into LR4 so Process was 2012 by default.
I have an image which is a glass with liquid in against a black background. I have made a few tweaks in LR and am ready to send it off for printing. I just though I would take a look in Soft Proofing to see how the coloured liquid looked. When I click soft proofing and choose the correct profile supplied by my printing company (which is a 'glossy' profile), the black takes on a milky grey appearance, but according to LR is not out of Gamut.
If I choose the matt profile from my printing company, the same effect is there, but less so.
I rather think that this is quirk of softproofing black, what with black not actually being a colour and all that. Since there are no gamut warnings, and I have never had a problem with printed images on a black background, then I think I should ignore this. It does give a rather mis-leading impression though.
I've not long started shooting in RAW with my Nikon D700 and have had some pleasing results so far. However, I've just started editing in Lightroom and have noticed that my RAW images are incredibly grainy. I don't think it's the ISO because this has happened across the board ... even with a very low ISO. Obviously the jpegs seem much better as they've received treatment, but no amount of tweaking the details section of Lightrom seems to solve the problem. My work flow was: Shoot in RAW + jpeg > Manually upload the files to my PC > Add the raw files to Lightroom > Edit them via the developing module.
I've uploaded a cropped version of one of the images. Please note the white specks in the dark area of the RAW image.
I'm new to the photography world and having a bit of trouble when using Lightroom.I have a new Olympus PEN EPL-5 and Lightroom 4.3 running on Windows7.
When I import RAW (.ORF) files they are dark in general, but when export them as JPG they are brighter, similar to what native JPG from the camera looks like. Then if I "correct" the ORF file in Quick Develop or Develop it becomes too light/bright/over-exposed.
Here on the left is the RAW file import with Develop Settings = "none" and to the right is an export to JPG color space "sRGB".Now if I adjust the RAW (.ORF) file in LR I can get it close to the JPG on the right above, but then when I export it, it becomes way too bright
why the RAW Library image is so far off from the exported JPG image?Obviously this "issue" makes using Lightroom very difficult as I can't tell how changes in LR will really turn out once exported.
I am using Photoshop elements 10 with windows 7 on my Toshiba laptop.
I am trying to make a slide show of photos for my brother's funeral. The photos will be shown on a screen at the church and on a TV monitor at home. I was used to Photoshop 4, but had purchased but not really used Photoshop Elements 10. I am about 1000 miles away from home so I cannot go back to try to using Photoshop 4 which is not on this laptop. I don't think I want to change (i.e. resample) the pixels, etc.
I have put into order all of the photos. However, the photos are of varying sizes. The photos taken digitally are fine. However, I have a lot of photos take a long time ago for like 3X3 or 2X3, i.e. like in the 50's - 90's, which were scanned. Then provided to me in a variety of ways. Coming to me they are small on the page. ie like in one corner. I am not trying to shrink these photos. I am trying to resize them larger. And probably get rid of most of the white background.
I always convert my Nikon .NEF files to .DNG to work with them in Lightroom, but this week I opened some of the .NEF files in Nikon View NX2 and noticed they looked less grainy than their own .DNG counterparts. The .NEF file had some grain, which is to be expected, but the .DNG had noticeably more.
I was told that .DNG conversion was a lossless process, so I was surprised to find ANY difference between the two files. I also noticed some (relatively small, but non-zero) differences between their histograms.
Why would there be ANY differences at all in the NEF-->DNG conversion process? Is it not really lossless? Is there something wrong with my settings?

If I mix a rich black using the CMYK colour picker, set it as the default foreground colour, will that black be used for printing? I am just not sure that for printing PS does not just use a 100% K.

a colleague has been working on a website and the below images show the files and colours they should be, but he has opened the files up again yesterday and the files show as per the second image (the colours have changed from blues to all black but with edges defined). The document was originally created in CMYK and brought from a PDF (I know, but it wasnt us!) so there may be some legacy there, but the only thing we could think of was a colour gamut or web colour warning, but changing those didn't seem to make a difference.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI edit a photograph from a Camera Raw file to high contrast, grainy black and white, then when I try to flatten it or save it, it washes all the contrast out completely. When I try to merge layers, flatten image or cmd+opt+e/cmd+opt+shift+e to a new file it does the same thing. Here's what I've tried to correct the issue:
-I've tried saving it as a PSD file, a TIFF, a JPEG and a BMP file
-I've tried calibrating my monitor (X-Rite i1 Pro)
-I've tried soft proofing on and off (left off for now)
-I've tried resetting my colour settings to import files into the working space as ProPhoto & Adobe RGB 1998
-I've tried setting the import as the calibrated settings for the screen rather than ProPhoto or Adobe RGB 1998
-I've checked that all files (apart from a Dodge/Burn Layer which has to be on Soft Light never affected any files before) were set to normal
-I've tried converting profiles from ProPhoto to Adobe 1998, Adobe 1998 to sRGB
-I've tried going to preferences in User>Me>Library>Preferences>Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings and manually resetting all relevant references
-I've tried flushing and resetting all preferences
-I've tried to uninstall and install Photoshop SC6 from scratch
-I've tried restarting the image from the raw file with the new install of CS6, done all the edits again manually...
And it still does the same thing. Whenever I have adjustment layers on my file and have some contrast added that I want to save, it flattens the whole image out..The last attachment is what it looks like in photoshop and another with my colour settings for the (calibrated) screen

I'm on Illustrator CS5 and I am exporting to PDF. My blacks are coming out grey although my settings for Appearance of Black are all set for rich black on both On Screen and Printing/Exporting. I have tinkered with both settings Display All Blacks As Rich Black and Display All Blacks Accurately, I've also tried messing with the color swatches with different blacks and I get nada!
Blacks still look grey on export and print grey.
My document is set to CMYK and on the Save Adobe PDF dialog, I go to Output and set my Destination to Document CMYK—U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2. I've turned this off and on and exported multiple ways—nada!

I'm very unfamiliar with any but the most basic stuff in Library and Develop. I've attempted to create a slide show, decided I wanted to change it and start over but it seems the unsaved slideshow is still hanging about.
I don't see how to get rid of it, I continue to see an 'Unsaved slide show' written near the top left/center of slideshow screen.I want to just ditch that attempt and start over.
I have a 66 image slideshow sorted from a collection.
LR will only export 11 images.
I have tried from the original images (not in a collection), have saved a slideshow, have previewed and played, everything works fine on screen but I can't export the slideshow as jpegs.
I am trying to select music for my slideshow in LR 3. When I click on "select music" in the Slideshow Module I am able to select a song but because of the number of photos in the show I need more than one song or else find a much longer song. I need to add three songs to get adequate length. This is on a PC laptop. I have tried holding down various buttons while clicking on an additional song to add. including the shift button, Alt button, Ctrl, Window button, and Fn. It still keeps unchecking the selected song and then checking the next song I click on.
How do I get more than one song into the Slideshow?
