Wow. I’ve watched two of your tutorials within the past 10 minutes Anthony. It’s time I turned my iPad off and got some sleep. It’s already tomorrow. Fortunately I always save my tutorials within my library and I go over them at my choice. All saved, noted and respected. Stay safe.

These mini tutorials for Lightroom are really fabulous. In many cases they are refreshers for many things that are too easily forgotten if you don’t use them frequently. My favorite out of this bunch: I totally forgot about the overlay that shows the different aspect ratios: very useful!

[@CVCC]

wow, awesome! Thanks!

[@megd.6089]

dude, I just learned more from you in a few min than a week of poking around in the interwebs trying to figure things out.

[@josharpman]

I knew most, though not all of them. But I'm really glad with that x-key explanation. That will definitely be a keeper for me! Thanks for that!

[@Peter-io2xs]

Really like the B&W of the lighthouse, and as always, great tips.

[@trout3212001]

Thanks for the tips. I knew most of them, but I had never figured out how to flip between portrait and landscape. For me that one tip was worth its weight in gold! Thanks again.

[@michaelmcphee2930]

Lots of great tips there thanks Anthony. Very much appreciated.

[@thevideoark]

Brilliant. Thanks Anthony

[@karinaport]

Thank you, Anthony!!! Great tips!!!

[@howardrankin7119]

Excellent array of time saving tips

[@shlomoeshet8525]

As in life your videos provide a continuing learning experience. In this one I discovered the L keyboard shortcut which I wasn't aware of. Thanks.

[@JohnChubbSr]

Thanks, Anthony. Great tips!

[@cynical1952]

Excellent tips and thank you.

[@darrellcadieux3497]

Is there a way to zoom to a desired view and then crop to that view in a single button command?

[@FranHoganPanama]

The video thumbnail photo of the young woman in black shirt and yellow cap is my photo! Cool. I think you got it on Unsplash. I hoped to see it in this video, but didn't. I see you gave me credit for it.... thank you!

[@alexmaranon584]

Good stuff. Learned a lot. Thank you!

[@tjwazz]

Nice video. Am I able to reset crop for every image in a collection at the same time? Select all and reset crop doesn’t do it.

[@Suhailkhan53]

Great video

[@steveloudon7491]

Up until a few days ago when I cropped an image the dimensions would appear in the upper left corner. Now they're gone. What did I do? Thanks

[@Capture262]

Newbie here, if I shot in 3:2 on the camera and want to crop an image, do I just keep the lock on and my cropped image will still be 3:2? Thanks

[@kescor]

Anthony - I use the X X keys to quickly crop into the center of the picture. Super fast short you showed perhaps accidentally.

[@rghurst]

The crop feature I would love to see in LR is to be able to type in an exact pixel size (H & W) for the crop. Seems this would be a very useful/popular feature. I wonder if there is some "technical" reason it doesn't exist.

[@virussize6]

Thanks

[@leniehulse1621]

Great tips, as usual! 👏👏

[@larrymulmed2081]

Great stuff, but what a bunch of Crop!

[@rodrigojose23]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@UFGator1972]

I might be incorrect, but you had a similar video a few years ago. Still a good video for novices.

[@signedelacroix7213]

Shift A. 😮

[@cooljoan1309]

If only there was a keyboard shortcut to like this video instantly.
