do you tweak the preset setting or do you just go with the ones you feel shows the image off best?
Thanks
I look at each photo individually and process them in PhotoLab to achieve the particular look I want, nothing is batch processed. I usually Leave certain selections as they are. Here is a list of presets that I use, you have to develop your own preferences and technique.
RAW White Balance:
As Shot
Exposure Compensation:
As needed
DXO Smart Lighting:
Always on-usually default
Selective Tone:
As needed
DXO Clearview Plus
As Needed adjusted to taste
Contrast:
Contrast as needed
Microcontrast 16-22
Noise Reduction:
Prime always
Tone Curve:
As needed
Color Accentuation:
Vibrancy as needed
Saturation as needed
Color Rendering:
Camera Body or DCP Profile
HSL:
As Needed
Chromatic Aberration:
Always on Default setting if there is a lens profile
I make Local Adjustments as needed.
