Comment on Changes to the Basics Tab in Lightroom 4 Beta by Scot

Hi Vic,

I love the vibrance slider, I find it often gives me more realistic colours compared to the saturation slider. In answer to your question, I did not mention the Vibrance slider simply because I cannot see any change in its operation since LR3. Also the image above didn’t require any Vibrance or Saturation adjustment.

I’m not sure why your images are importing as PV2010 instead of PV2012, esp as you say they have not been editing in previous versions of Lightroom. The default for new images is to use PV2012. I would suggest contacting Adobe on their Adobe Labs forum and explaining it to them and maybe they can advise you.

Thanks

Scot

I can’t thank you enough. You have really made my night and made this so nice and easy. Isn’t photoshop incredible? I would have never, ever known how to make a stone looking surface this way (the filter, render, etc.).

Thanks.

Hi Scot, we must be neighbours I’m in Lyme. My question is why have you not mentioned Vibrance. I tend to use it on most of my images instead of Saturation.

Sorry one more, when importing straight from the memory card, why does LR4b treat them as PV2010 and shows the LR3 Basic Module set up even thought they are not copies from LR3? I use the PV2012 on the metadata on import.

Thanks and regards

Vic

How does this differ from increasing the contrast in Lightroom?

Comment on 5 Creative borders for Lightroom by Ellicott City Wedding Photographer

Gavin, This was so useful – Thanks so much for the templates and the great video! This tutorial covered *exactly* what I needed to know to add a watermark and border to an image in LR.

My only question is – is there any way to add borders to many photos at once? e.g. a batch border print once it’s setup?

You covered a lot in this brief tutorial! Many tutorials I have seen only cover Hue and Saturation or Opacity. Some go into Blending Modes. Rarely, though, have I seen one on color like this. Once you learn which sliders to use, you have so much more control! Thanks for going into this!
