Did Clifford's in-depth tutorial answer your questions? If not, comment yours below!
E gads. Really good!
The very best and complete tutorial ever. Why I love BH.
I liked the presentation, great information and heaps of awesome tips for post processing.
Love this editing style so many cool tips . It would be very nice to see this instructional video updated to reflect the new sliders in Lightroom Classic.
Thank you for this lesson, But if you make the right and left menu panel a little bigger, that would make this perfect. The letters are too small and hard to follow. Photo itself does not need to be big. When you make next time like this, keep this in mind.
I like that some of the un-edited pictures are actually better than the edited ones.
Same
😂😂😂😂
Agree. He actually IS a good photographer when he's not using LR as a crutch.
This is THE BEST image editing videos I’ve ever seen! Cliff’s presentation teaches not only post-processing, but creativity and composition as well.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Which version of lightroom is he using?
I've watched dozens of lightroom videos over the years and this is by far the best. Thanks Clifford and B&H!
I've watched this video a dozen times. It's my favourite Lightroom tutorial on TH-cam.
The best Lightroom tutorial I saw on the web!
Just getting more serious into Lightroom and this tutorial is waaay beyond i could ever imagine. Fantastic in every way. So happy came across this video. Thank you so much.
Clifford you can do magic within LR! Thank you so much for sharing your magic!
This by far the best video about this topic! Thanks Clifford!! Cheers Rene
I love this lesson. I absolutely love that he explains his own feelings on the image. why he's doing it and not just, I'm doing this. I'm doing that. he's actually giving me the insight into what he sees in the image even before the editing. it really helps to keep me inspired to learn more about photography
Well, I am an old man learning photography and Lr and I'm watching this course over and over again and taking notes. This is great.
Thak you so much.
I have resisted making use of Lightroom and similar tools for all but the most basic adjustments reasoning that if I couldn't get it pretty close to "right" in camera, then I didn't deserve the shot. To do otherwise was cheating myself (I could be lazy) and reality (artificially create the moment rather than capture it). Clifford's workshop didn't just shift my perception of post-processing editing, it opened my eyes about how to get where I wanted to go artistically without sacrificing the underlying integrity of my photography. It made me realize how foolish I have been in not using available tools to reasonable advantage. The most important aspect of this workshop is that he links edits to an underlying vision - this isn't about making an image technically correct, it's about using tools to express yourself. Well done and much appreciated.
I've watched hundreds of videos on Lightroom. Even though I am only about one third of the way through watching this one I'd have to say this is the best one I've ever seen on how to best utilize Lightroom's various capacities! Who is this guy and why am I just now finding out about him? Thank you B&H for turning me on to this wonderful resource!
Thanks for doing such a top notch job of repeating the question asked. Appreciated.
Not just learned new tricks and how it's done in LR but also the reasoning behind why it's done that way. Very informative and valuable information that is absorbed easily. Thank you so much.
I just know this is without doubt the best instructional video, on just about anything, I’ve ever watched on YT. The, “cut to the chase”, the making others think of the answers, questioning me on how to do…,the reasonings’ in your opinion, you provide, is simply teaching at its very best.
Clifford taught like a pro. I knew LR could do all of this but the simple tricks using alt and crtl were more valuable than anything else. It will definitely help my edits look more real and speed things up as well.
Really great presentation. Highlights the value in pre-visualization of the image desired!
What an amazing tutorial. Thank you so much. 👏 👏 👏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very informative and easy to follow to video. Great job! Clifford, how would you administer the 39 sunset saturation rule on the updated version of Photoshop. The new color grading replacement seems a bit complicated for a rookie like me.
Some very useful information here and I'll come back to it again. I think some of the images are oversaturated but every one to his own. Quality video, thanks !
Excellent tutorial! Thank you so much
I’m a half hour into this and I love it. I have been using Lightroom for two years and I’m learning A LOT! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much for this. Great course and can't believe this is free. thank you again.
Lightroom Mastery Class? - Yesss I want lol
Cliff’s presentation teaches not only post-processing
Best spent 2 hours in my photography journey. Great share. Thank you.
I'm only 18 minutes in and this is the best lightroom tutorial I've ever seen lol. Thank you!
I have to say I kind of discovered this video while browsing the youtube for hackintosh, for monitors for photo editing etc and here I am.
I watched the whole video and I loved it! So catchy and you taught me a lot of new things. Thank you, sire.
Very good information, thanks B&H.
Beautiful, impactful and extremely interesting tutorial. learnt and absorb a lot from this tutorial
Thank you so much for posting these awesome videos!!!
We're glad you like them!
This was a great video. I think that I learned so much about being able to look at an image and have a road map of tools to use and what order to get the image that is possible. so many times I would look at what the camera captured and thought that it was just okay, now I can see what is possible. Thank you again.
This is the best tutorial with significant detailed explanation that I have ever found on TH-cam. Big THUMPS UP for Clifford!
Glad it was helpful!
I learned a lot form this video, thank you Clifford
Oh my god so good explained thank you!!!!
Phenomenal presentation!
Excellent video tutorial on Lightroom! I'm really pleased to see Clifford doing some of the same things I've been doing on my own prior to seeing this video. I've grown accustomed to using the "Dehaze" slider for adjusting skies. Most other Lightroom instructors hardly ever use the dehaze slider. I'm not sure why. But this is a great video because I learned a number of new things I didn't know before! Thanks Clifford! I am also one that likes saturated colors. Maybe because when I was young all we had was black and white tv.... LOL!
I love dehaze, I use it both ways, in" reverse " for foggy type scenes 🤝
Great video, learnt a lot, thanks!
Oh man, what amazing tutorial! Best I have ever seen, so far. I am not begginer in Lr (using many of this tools) and watched so many tutorials but none of them gives us a great information about practical using some tools, especailly dehaze. Its a powerfull tool but underestimeted in all other tutorials and courses. I am delighted that I found this tutorial! Great, great tutorial. I wonder is there any other with Clifford Picket and Editing Tips?
I will surely mail you mine before and after photos. This video really helps me out. Love from INDIA.
I have to agree with some of the comments on here. This is by far the BEST Lightroom tutorial on youtube. Thank you for giving us a free lesson. Much appreciated.
We're so glad to hear this!
Tjose are awesome shots man!
Wow I have learnt so much about LR. Thank you. Never knew the 100 ISO trick!I
Excellent and very informative
well detailed tutorial
This video is so good, wow
This video is awesome, clifford did a great job in showing the potential of lightroom. I was sceptical of listening to this video, as I was already using lightroom quite a lot and thought I wouldn't get much out of it, specially that it was 2 hrs, but Igot so much out of it :)! Thank you!!!
Glad it was helpful!
This is a great channel,thanks for share.
Thankyou ♥️🙌It helped
This is great!
Superb presentation! some of these option look different in LR 2022. But this is a new approach to masking
I find what was mssing at last, the greatest explnation for wha we missing 👌🏻🎭🤟🏼
Im so excited from just the beginning of this video. This is gonna be a good tutorial 😀
Wow!.. just Wow!!
Thank you very much learned alot
Glad to hear it!
Damn this is the best Lightroom editing tutorial on Internet or TH-cam. 😮
Great tutorial, probably the best I have found on Lightroom, but I can't agree with the over-saturation that creates unrealistic images.
THIS VIDOE TAUGHTS A LOT MAN
glad it did!
Great video. I used PS a long time ago and switched to Corel. I finally made the jump back and your video was very informative. But I missed the keystroke you used when you were adjusting the sharpness. It darkened the image and showed how the sharpness slider was effecting the image. You called it the option button. Could you please let me know what keystroke that was. Thank you.
you can do what you want!
Last Time during using lightroom i was a little bit confused but after your video it's completely simple to me. thank you
Glad it helped!
I would love to see a basic course too.
Cliff: Great tips on how to edit to make pictures pop. Thank you.
Awesome
I like to refer to the initial picture you take as the bones of the image and the editing of that image as the soul.
Great session. Where can I find the Speed Up Lightroom session you did?
Wonderful and informative without question the best how too i have seen from anyone! Will be going to look at all of your other videos as well.
I like this kind of work. The man is a master of his craft. Nice workmanship. Only why is it not in photoshop?
Could you please post the link to speeding up Lightroom Classic 2920?
I prefer Lr vs LrC on my laptop. Am I missing out on important settings by opting to stick with Lr? I'm a Windows 11 user btw.
Didnt even start talking and theres a 5 minute question - let the man speak lol
Anything similar for capture one?
I can’t get the same panel under the histogram mine are just crop, red eye and mask how do I get the other choices?
Anybody have a link for the "how to speed up lightroom" video he mentions in the beginning? TYIA!
This lecture is amazing! Thanks for posting it in full... Would anyone here know whether it's possible to delete photo files from disk at the same time as deleting from LR? Thanks :)
Yes, it is possible to delete an image from your disk and Lightroom at the same time. Once you select delete, Lightroom would prompt you where the image should be deleted.
So it's a master class on lightroom editing and a person asks have these edits been done in lightroom????
Wow!!!
Loved this session, learnt a lot in editing Images in lightroom, makes me want to go back through some images that I thought were a disaster and re-edit, but how did he take raw images on his iPhone
To my knowledge, the stock Camera app that comes with the Apple iPhone does not capture RAW images. However, you can obtain apps from the App Store that do have RAW capabilities and will store RAW images taken with your iPhone. While there are various options, four (4) options that I would recommend at varying price points would be either *VSCO* _(free),_ *Halide Camera* _($5.99),_ *ProCam 7* _($5.99),_ and *FiLMiC Firstlight* _($7.99)._

B&H Photo Video Thank You B&H for a great response, great advice, cheers
Sure makes sense.. ;-)
I am curious if it is worth using Lightroom instead of After Effects if I am not batch editing photos. I can't tell if Lightroom has as many features as AE. As far as I can tell After Effects has the ability to achieve a greater degree of control but it lacks the ease of navigation and automatic settings.
I would appreciate any input since I can't find much comparing the two.
Lightroom Classic is the desktop-focused version of this well-rounded image editing and management application
After Effects lets you apply cinematic visual effects to your productions.
As with most other video-compositing software, After Effects is resolution independent, meaning animators and visual effects artists can define the resolution of their workspace down to a single pixel. Even more, After Effects offers sub-pixel accuracy resolution, which is more precise than even that single pixel. This level of precision is important when compositing convincing visual effects into live-action video, or moving text smoothly across the screen.
You use AE to fix, improve or change a shot you cannot fix, improve or change in an NLE. You do not cut or edit in AE except for the occasional short sequence. Any compositing or visual effects you have seen in any movie or commercial can be accomplished inside AE with the use of AE's standard set of effects and the appropriate 3rd party effects or scripts packages. >Mark
yes you can opening an image in PS does nothing to the LR NEF
Can we get some Santa muerte images just to feel at home
I have a different version of Lightroom so this isn't a lot of help, which is sad. I guess I have Lightroom Classic?
What software is used to take the RAW photos on the iPhone?
If you download the Adobe Lightroom Photo Editor app, you can use it to take pictures and you can save them in DNG format.
To my knowledge, the stock Camera app that comes with the Apple iPhone does not capture RAW images. However, you can obtain apps from the App Store that do have RAW capabilities and will store RAW images taken with your iPhone. While there are various options, four (4) options that I would recommend at varying price points would be either *VSCO* _(free),_ *Halide Camera* _($5.99),_ *ProCam 7* _($5.99),_ and *FiLMiC Firstlight* _($7.99).

On 1:21:50 he talks about an over overlay.... How does he show the overlay of the radial filter when he clicks on the adjustment brush? I can see my overlay of the radial filter, but as soon as I click on the adjustment brush, the overlay disappears.... Thanks!
If you press the keyboard letter shortcut "O" (that is the letter "O", not the number zero), it should display the overlay showing the area affected by the filter. If you press SHIFT+O, the color of the overlay will change.
@@BandH I will try again, but I think when the adjustment brush is active and you press O, it shows the edits made with the brush... On the screen it seems all overlays are showing (the one of the radial filter WHILE the adjustment brush is active).... If I just click on O, I only see the adjustment brush overlays, not the ones of the radial filter anymore
The theory is good, but the unedited versions are generally better. This just shows how hard it is to actually beat apple/insta/lightroom and so on filters and presets. Engineers know what people want to arrive at and when editing from scratch it's easy to mess up.
Allowing interruptions is a mistake. It breaks the flow and changes the topic from general to a specific may not be of general interest. Save interruptions for a specific planned time.
Those are definitely some Sony levels of sensor dust
Which version of lightroom is he using?
The most current version as of April 2020 (Version 9.2.1 ). >Mark
@@BandH is it lightroom classic?
perfect speed 1.25
Just watching this now and I have to say that the DOF edit you made was horrible, this would be much better if you used a mask in PS and made a more realistic front to back gradient for lens blur that more realistically kept the field of focus. Parts of the image withing the field of view that should have remained sharp were unrealistically blurred by the adjustments you made with the tools you used. I do appreciate the value of the tools available in Light Room and what you are sharing is still quite valuable. Especially for adjustments of highlights and shadows and your advise on capturing as much information in the initial file as possible.
money as Pro logic looks to run smoother on MAC! FFS!!!
You move a bit fast with your mouse, I couldn't catch duplicate, then duplicate again...
vibrance is not a smart "saturation"! Vibrance works in the "midtones! geez!
Please look at the camera when you speak
very ordinary images !!
At a certain point, this is more special effects than photography.
The questions are a bit annoying.
He lost credibility when he said Michael Jordan had 32. Lol. Nice tutorial!
So I've been doing this for years. Watching b&h videos and others learning from the best photographers around the world developing my skills independently and then I join this photography company and they tell me that this is not photography. That I have no skills and developing digital photos in digital dark rooms is not photography and I am narrow minded and should learn from other photographers after I just beat all of them in a blind photography competition. I can't even believe this is happening. Spit on for being creative. Saying I embarrassed myself for pretending I know anything and disagreeing with the manager who says photography can only be one thing from one person's opinion. I'm absolutely shocked that people like this exist.
I'm 20 minutes in and already hate him. LOL that just means I have about 4 days of experience with Lightroom and I'm sitting here going "I would have never thought of that"
