    Slides and dates

    I find it useful to adjust the scan file's creation and/or capture date before importing into Lightroom. This enables the files to sort in Lightroom via capture date just like digital captures. The two apps I use for this are Graphic Converter and A Better Finder Attributes. Lightroom does have...

    Managing derived files -- best practices?

    For what it is worth, here is my approach: 1. raw + edited TIFF/PSDs: stacked together with original 2. edited TIFFs + jpegs for posting: delete jpeg after posting. 3. edited TIFFs + reduced TIFFs for faster previewing (or previewing in different color spaces): delete after using. 4. raw...

    Understanding the use of the Adobe Cloud storage by CC

    I have a single LR library for my personal and professional work. I do not use LR CC on the desktop. I do not want all photos imported or added to my LR library to use up space in the Adobe cloud; I want to choose which photos will be in the cloud. Is there any way to accomplish this? I create...

    Leaps in technology leaving me lost and overwhelmed in organizing photos!

    Personally, I find using the cloud to import and sync photos from my phone adds a layer of unnecessary complexity. I recommend thinking of your phone as a camera which needs to be connected to your computer with a cable to transfer photos to a local drive. Lightroom then imports from that drive.

    Can Anyone Help ID These Negatives

    Could the grain be a result of low scanner resolution? What dpi are you scanning at? Also, too much sharpening can exaggerate grain. Is the scanning software adding sharpening? Could you tell us the model scanner and type of software and the settings of the software?

    Does auto-stacking work with dng & jpegs?

    There are two versions of the same photo in my LR library; one is a dng converted on import from the raw camera file and the other version is a jpeg made by a third party application*. The two files were imported in separate import sessions. I had hoped that auto-stacking would stack them...

    Filter for empty location field?

    Thank you. That is helpful. I also just realized there is a choice in the filter bar for "Unknown Location" which does what I need.

    Filter for empty location field?

    Is there a way to setup a Smart Collection to show photos without words in the location field? This is easily done in the keywords field but I can't figure out how to do it with location. thank you
