Thanks Michael for this reminder, i would like more lightroom tutorials from time to time.
Great session. Thank you for sharing those tips, Michael!
Solid video! Love the run through, learned some cool new tricks! I should step back from photoshop some and give Lightroom more time!
Hey thank you. Impressed with the work
Tip number 5: Back Slash key: I had never heard or used that key and I had to look it up.
Tip number 3: Type J; Nothing happened.
I think we could use more of those Lightroom videos including on the Saturation tools using your different images to illustrate.
Keep it up!
Hey thanks so much! Perhaps if you push the J key and nothing happens your image does not have any over exposed areas or underexposed areas. Try it on an image with some blown out highlights :)
I love pressing F key. Increases the image in size to take up most of the screen.
Awesome tip!
"Point color" in the "color mixer" tab has become one of my new favorite tools; it's a great and effective alternative for HSL sliders.
As beginner knowing those will help me a lot to speed up and improve my overall experience with lightroom, Thanks man!
I definitely need help in this area. Thank you so much for sharing!!
Great roundup of useful tips, thank you. I find doing clone/heal tool last very helpful as after using it editing drastically slows for that photo.
I recently 'lost' the metadata/attribute toolbar and after much searching found the backslash key ( in library mode) also makes this appear/disappear.
From cityscapes,waves and swamps your creativity is inspiring.
I often expect to not learn anything from these as I've used Lightroom and PS for a long time, but it pays to watch as you taught me a couple new tips. THANK YOU, Michael.
Thank you, some very helpful tips there! 🤓
Fabulous, still learning new stuff... many thanks
Great video! 12 years I've been using the same software and still learning new things to this day! Amazing how a tool evolves to suit our needs!
Thank you. The extra tips are what made it for me.
Love these tips thanks
You are welcome, thanks for watching! :)
Really handy tips. Thanks Michael!
Thanks for watching!
Amazing video, great tips and quick and short video. Thanks!
Thanks Michael! I’ve used Lightroom for a long time too, yet learned a ton from this vid. Your expertise is much appreciated. And of course the shots you showed as examples were amazing too! 😊
Good tips, Michael! Thanks for them.
Thanks Jack!
This was great! Thanks for making this
Thanks for watching man!
Awesome Michael. I really appreciated your approach. Relaxed and you clearly bring out your 'learning' points with clear and helpful examples. Nicely done. Thank you I think I may finally have my mind around the Intersect function! Yay
Great info, some new some that had been forgotten.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you Mike!
I thought I had a pretty good grasp on Lightroom, thank you for the extra tips!
Thanks for the tips Michael. The one I use when cropping is to hit L while in crop overlay. Lights out when cropping i find very nice.
Really good
Thanks!
Thanks so much Len!
Good stuff Michael, thanks for sharing these tips. Helps to get more knowledge to take advantage of LR capabilities.
great video and tips as always! Still, use your radial vignette tool tip from years ago!
As a beginner, I really appreciate the Lightroom tips! I shoot auto white balance and have recently been starting that as my first edit. Do you have recommendations on the order of the steps you use?
Great series of tips for Lightroom! I find myself doing more and more of my editing in LR as they continue to improve masking and allow even more refinements to the tool.
Thanks! Agreed it’s nice to see them constantly improving Lightroom, which I can’t necessarily say for some of their other software. Now if only they could revert the Luminosity Range mask to what it was 5 years ago haha.
Great video and handy tips! I use the duplicate and invert mask a lot, for various types of photography. Can’t wait to try some of these tips
Thanks! Invert mask is key for sure, I haven’t ever tried duplicate mask, so I will need to definitely give that a go for some edits!
Michael, thanks for the video. I've worked with LR since its first beta, but actually learned a couple of things I didn't know. I saw in the comments that this video hasn't done as well for you as some of your other videos, but please know that many of us found this helpful. You do great work and are a terrific teacher.
I really appreciate you saying that Erik, thanks so much!
My top tip, using radial mask (inverted) for vignettes, draw a radial mask, use crtl + double click on the mask button will snap the edge of the mask to whatever size your image is cropped or otherwise.
Thanks, Michael for this great video. I wish you had made this much earlier. I have wasted so much time on editing but this video will be saved for my next work in LR. Cheers:)
Thank you, Michael! You're the best! Your tutorials save me so much time when editing my images ❤
Hey thanks so much! Really glad you enjoyed it, also I am going to shoot you an email back here soon, sorry for the lag!
It's ok @MichaelShainblum! I know you're very busy and I know you wouldn't forget me! ❤🤗
I liked the matching total exposure tip.
thanks!
One word Michael. Thankyou!
P.S More Lightning chase vids!!!
A fantastic set of tips and tools! The auto masking I never saw before and I don't know how I ever missed it. My computer is turning on right now so I can go play with it! 😂
Cheers
the match total exposures trick how did I not already know about the existence of that! thanks michael!
Thanks! Glad you got a tip out of it! :)
Well from the last updated tools I find myself using the color picker tool often (HSL panel), and it is great that they have put it also in the masking option. Great videos Michael, for your next trip I suggest Montenegro, Europe and I can show you great places for landscape photography. Al the best and continue with the great work!!!
Hi Michael. Nice video, thanks ... One thing I recently discovered is that if you hit command and fwd slash (this is on a Mac) you get a list of keyboard shortcuts ...these are contextual for whichever mode (Library, Develop etc) you are in ....
I love that, thanks for sharing!
1:39 Clean your sensor!😄
Ummm Michael when you were using the masking tool. I thought I saw a bunch of lens spots. Hmmmm. Lol great vlog. Always enjoy good sir, great information. Learned a few new things. Thank you
You are not wrong, that shot had an absurd about of dust! Whoops, new video “how to keep your senior clean” incoming hahaha
Excellent vídeo my friend 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you!
I have been ignoring the calibration field. Thanks for showing what it can do.
Thanks Michael. It's fascinating to see the plethora of processing options and difficult to keep track of the options (known and unknown). Shortcuts are really helpful too. Maybe a new one for you is to hold the Option key on a Mac to intersect masks rather than using the pull-down menu.
I had no idea, thanks for sharing that!
Great video thanks Michael. Question - do you mainly just use LR for everything and don’t use photoshop at all?
great tips, please do one for photoshop
I definitely have some photoshop ideas for the future! Thanks!
Thanks for some great tips. I’m new to Lightroom although have used ACR for years. One question: do you have any tips for matching white balance of a series of images post edit? I find sometimes they look great individually but as a series there is too much variation.
This one was a great one Michael! Definitely learned a couple new tips I can incorporate in my edits! Thank you!
awesome tips Michael, Do you see any noticeable variations in image quality between Lightroom and Photoshop?
Thanks, nah both will do the same thing as long as you are working at the RAW level.
L - Key creates a linear gradient for me lol .. different versions of LR I presume
which LR version are you useing
That match exposure tip makes me angry for the time I’ve wasted
1:33 you have the platforms reversed.
Indeed I did, that’s what I get for using a PC keyboard on a MBP
@@MichaelShainblumha, no worries.
Shift this one.... using Darktable and no need of expensive Adobe shit 🙂 Love the photo vlogs you make, but realy ... al this Ligthroom shit is doing everyone to make vids? ahhhhrrrggg... please do some beautifull swamp stuff...
I appreciate that you enjoy the vlogs! I try my best to release mainly in field vlogs as they are what I truly enjoy making. but you need to understand they are sooo time consuming to make, sometimes it takes me two weeks just to get them to look right. I also get asked weekly to make some post processing courses so I thought it would be nice to share a new one.
But if people are not into the post processing stuff anymore I am happy to stop doing them. I have been making them on the channel since 2013 before ever starting the vlogs or the Timelapse’s.
@@MichaelShainblum Even when you make a vlog once a month! You're vlogs in the field are awesome Michael!! That storm-vlog and the swamp event last month is soooo amazing. In my situation I learned to deal with Darktable and is awesome freeware, but I think I'm sick of Lightroom vids... I know the costs in money and time for field-vogs is high, but that's (my opinion) the special part of your channel ... Really enjoying your 'field' videos because they are special to you and made by your feeling & knowledge
@@huubdegroot in all fairness this video is tanking super hard, so you are probably right. Either way I appreciate your viewership and I will continue the in field stuff. Just trying to find a bit of a balance commercial work and CZcams wise.
Not everyone uses Lightroom. I'll wait until the next non-software based video.
