thank you!

why is it so fucking complicated.

#5:07 In Photoshop, I bundle my filter layers into a group and just copy them to other photos. As far as I know, you can't save these as a preset, but you can save the layers as a blank TIFF file to access them in future.

Sounds like Bridge does that management job on behalf of Photoshop. When I shoot hundreds of photos at a live show, I assess and rate them in Bridge, then edit them in Photoshop. Never seen the point in learning how to navigate Lightroom when I've had about 25 years experience with its big brother.

Lightroom takes a raw file and creates a flat image with the greatest tonal and color dynamic range that is set at the midway point of these values. You are working in raw files because it is your ability as an editor to effectively produce the very best rendering of your captured image. This application used properly can always create an image substantially better than lossy files using its canned standardized editing. Practice, practice, practice …and you will find your images will become substantially better than relying on lossy files.

The way to explain the details that I like the most is here. Thank you sir👍

Excellent explanation Marcel, except the Camera Calibration panel doesn't 'need' to be at the end of your workflow. If you deem that it should be near the beginning, you can rearrange the panels to suit you. You don't always need to accept where the panels are as is. Take for instance the Lens Correction panel. You wouldn't use that panel at the end of your workflow because you would end up throwing all your colours off, so it makes sense to move that one too to the beginning. To rearrange the panels: In the Develop Module, right click any of the panels and then choose 'Customize Develop Panel' > A dialogue box will then appear with three lines next to each of the Develop Module options, all you need to then do is left click hold and drag around any of the options to where you think they 'should' go, and then click Save. It will require a restart of Lightroom Classic, but as soon as you do that, your panels will be in their customized position.

great video, exaplianed everything well and stayed on the topic. keep up the good work

I’ve never ran into this issue as bad as I am now, as of like 3-4 weeks ago I’ve never really noticed a drastic amount of change when looking through camera>importing in LR, Now My photos look about 4-5 stops darker in LR now compared to on camera, I’ve tried everything and still having this problem i haven’t changed anything settings wise and all of a sudden it’s doing this, since, I’ve tried reinstalling LR, tried different preview options, resetting to default, nothing is working, I’ve never had to apply any presets when importing to either my exposures have always been fine now i have to Boost to like + 2.0 on exposure to help. Need help asap🥲

Thanks for all bro. but i have 1 question. how to fix lightroom not change it auto.all the ways it change for fx3 RAW s

my god thank you for this video, all this time i was doing the hard way i had to convert my raw files to TIFF files which are freakin large then import to lightroom just to see that i got the same results from my camera

I truly appreciate the quick answer. I'm commenting, liking, and definitely subscribing for that,

Nice work Marcel, l plan on revisiting your tutorial while editing my photos, thank you.

Great tutorial! Thank you!

I have an issue where when I open the photo on the photos windows app it shows the actual dark color and on lightroom it goes so much bright that it´s terrible. For me is the opposite and not sure what´s going on cause previously everything was fine and running smoothly

ok, great, but how can I get the import to look even slightly close to the image I am getting on the back of my LCD screen as that would limit how much editing I need to actually do

Kiran from india.....I had this question ..so you explained very very good...thank you Boss..by the way am your subscriber

My main question is how to I KEEP the embedded preview in develop module (or exporting to PS)

This was the clearest explanation I have ever heard on preview generation, and I’ve been watching LR videos forever.

Thank you. Finally, I actually understand exactly what is going on with previews. Such a concise and knowledgeable tutorial. Thanks for doing that, it has really helped me (and no doubt many others).

Very Well explanation. Thanks u!

Hast du echt mega gemacht!

Excellent, thank you!

Thanks for the video! There's still something that is a bit unclear to me(maybe i missed something): The import doesn't lose any data of the RAW files, right? Since it's only an interpretation and the actual data is still accessible, it shouldn't matter if the preview is high contrast or low contrast, you can always get all the data out of the file right? I'm asking, because I had a discussion with a friend recently, about why an imported RAW file looks different in Lightroom than in Capture one. And some photographers apparently argue that Capture One offers more details / dynamic range and so on. But this doesn't make sense to me, since they both work off of the RAW file, there can't be any loss off data until you hit export. So you should in theory be able to get the same results with both, if you know how to use the tools, right? (aside from them offering different workflows or getting to the same result easier. I mean just from the technical side...) Not asking for you to tell me that one is better than the other😉 just really curious about the theory of the RAW workflow...

epic thumbnail and great vid. thanks man

Great one 👌

it sounds so funny when Germans speak English 😂 ( in a good way ) 😂

Really great and down to earth advice. I think one thing I would add is customer service since many of my regulars have complained about long wait times after shoots and this is something I've always been super on top with my own work, to deliver asap. Unfortunately as much as we do enjoy our art the service speed is such a key factor in every industry these days, even if you work with private customers or influencers.

Very good advice. I appreciate your down to earth pragmatic approach. Just one thing: please stop hitting your desk while speaking, or uncouple your mic from it 😅

The most important part about photography is showing up

thanks a lot🗿👍🏾

I can completely relate. You just go out far too rarely and just do somerhing instead of thinking too much about it. 🔥

Very nice, where did you learn from the highlight countering the blue hue on waves ? I wanna educate myself

Nice content

It’s yet a reason i am using Capture One as an RAW converter, and exporting the pictures as a Tiff file to LR ore PS

Finally someone explains this in understandable words! 🔥

Bro nice video, very useful and very clear. It's really hard learn how to work on color calibration and you make it look easy ahahah congrats keep work like this ❤️

Love it!!!!!!

Man kann es einfach nicht verstecken, dass man Deutsch ist 😪😄

I appreciate the tutorial! I know the point of the video is not really relevant to this, but I personally like the dark, moody original as it makes the ocean seem hostile and vast, comparatively. It would be nice to see a tutorial where the editing is more subtle, as it’s seems lots of people these days create images that look creatively similar to one another. Thanks again, I learned a lot. Subbed.

Nice, thanks!

Thank you so much for your tutorial, it is very clear !

What a great video! I have been trying my hand at photography in autumn with more or less success but haven't gone out with a camera for a while. The video made me want to keep trying and take some good photos. Thanks! Dein Englisch ist übrigens sehr gut, sodass es mir kaum aufgefallen ist, dass du deutsch bist

I am not really a photographer but i follow a few online because I really love the craft. this was a great video and i am happy youtube recommended it

I really enjoyed this video and your advice is good. Thank you Marcel

For me, photography is an engine that needs to be run on a regular basis or it seizes up. This is particularly the case for street photography where I can really feel a loss of ‘form’ if I don’t get out for a while. Great video, thanks. I’ll look up the meaning of procrastination some other time 😅.

I have seen one photographer demonstrate this feature. Photoshop Cafe. I have subscribed to your channel because I saw one of your other videos.
