| Site Supporter | Lightroom Presets! Would you all who use Lightroom post your favorite Lightroom presets link? Please let us know if it's for JPEG or RAW as sometimes they differ. Maybe this can help each other to find what they need. I'll start. Here is the preset (for RAW) that I really like: A Scenic World Blog Archive Preset Madness! |

Posts: 1,143 | Thi sis by far and away the most bewildering software i have ever used. it is exactly what i need but I JUST CANNOT FIGURE IT OUT. No matter what i do it keeps applying sharpening to images as a default, FFS why can i not turn it off?????????? I don't want to turn off the entire DETAIL tab as i want NR on import but STOP FARKING SHARPENING YOU PUTTS! |

| Site Supporter | I use the (FREE) Wow! Presets for Lightroom found here: onOne Software - PhotoPresets for Lightroom The free downloads for Lightroom and ACR are at the bottom of this page: onOne Software - Downloads You have to sign up by filling in your e-mail info (spam free) and they will send you a download link. I use the presets for all of my B&W conversions and about half of my images. There are 140 presets in all. |

| Pentaxian | Alfisti - go through the video tutorials here: Adobe - Lightroom 2.0 tutorial : Lightroom 2.0 video tutorials I was a bit overwhelmed getting started with LR2 myself and these vids cleared up a lot of things. Herman and Alan: thanks for the links. Checking them out. |

| Loyal Site Supporter | The only Presets I use most often is Landscape sharpening, but only as a starting point. I also often use Auto Tone, but only as a starting point again. I also use the White Balance picker a good deal if there's something white in my shot. After that, every image is custom processed. If there's a series of photos in the same conditions, I'll copy the settings and paste it to the shots and re-balance exposure. Probably why it takes me forever and I have thousands of RAWs to go thru...  |

.But then maybe you should use presets more like me to avoid more confusion. Originally Posted by maxwell1295 Maxwell (or Alan? sorry I don't know which one) I saw that one too but couldn't decide to download it (spam fear). I was a little bit worried for having to give email.
Now that you've used it. I might give it a try. Thanks. Originally Posted by Venturi You're welcome, Venturi. Hopefully there will be more people sharing their preset links.

 . Now I use more of presets since it's really shorten my workflow. |

You should use a photo that you just imported and haven't done any manual adjustments. You do have the option of resetting to the Adobe default if you don't like what you did. Good luck! |

In ACR it just retained your last value which was so freakin simple to use.
