Hi Tom, thanks for watching and for the kind words. More to come in a week or two.

I have been using Lightroom and watching Lightroom Classic tutorials from various photographers for quite some time,so I really didn't expect to learn anything new in a "beginner" tutorial. I was amazed at how many little tips and tricks I learned (like duplicate and invert, rather than manually starting from scratch) and using the auto select to control the erase function. I know that I will have to watch this again, to remind myself of some of the little tweaks you showed.

@tv510

11 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching Hurly. No I seldom use the auto features. I just feel like I get more control when I do it myself.

Just the right level for me! A couple of questions: 1. When you move from one image where you used mask to another image, and then move back to the first image again: I assume that the mask corrections are still there. How can you see that there are masks defined? 2. When in masks -- are there limitations as to what adjustment tools you can use? Only the Basic tools? Others? 3. How did you switch back from mask tuning to using the global settings?

@tv510

Жыл бұрын

Hi Bernt, Yes, they are still there. 1. If you hover your mouse over the mask in the mask dialogue box, that mask should turn red (or whatever your mask color is). 2.Quite a few of the tools are available, sharpness, clarity curves. However the new noise reduction AI isn't there, that would be nice to control noise in a mask. I go to Photoshop for that. 3. To switch back, just click on the basic panel icon top left of that set of five icons. (basic, crop, healing, red eye reductions, masks)
