    Adobe DNG Profile Editor

    Thank you for linking to my article about how to set proper Infrared White Balance in Lightroom. The instructions provided there should be perfectly applicable to your Lightroom version 5.7.1. It is indeed true that Adobe changed the way profiles are being used back in March 2018, but this...

    Check Open GL support: failed

    Thank you - it is nice to receive feedback like this after such a long time! :-)

    On1 RAW and Layers

    Not only that their rollout plan has been significantly delayed, but what I really dislike is how aggressively they promote their "PRO" package - I just hope they don't run out of money.

    Trip to Barcelona

    Hello Toni, welcome! Can you give us an idea what your interests are? I just came back from a 4 day vacation in Barcelona - depending on your interests you can probably spend between a few days and a few months if you really would like to see "everything" ;-)

    Lightroom Performance ....something to watch out for.

    Thank you for sharing this Gnits. This is indeed a setting which can impact the performance of your Windows PC.

    Lens Correction

    Lens correction for Micro Four Thirds lenses is always applied automatically in Lightroom, without the ability to disable this. I have asked a similar question in the past, you will find this topic covered in this post.

    Monitor Colour Profiles

    In simplified terms: think of it as a translation table, after the monitor has been calibrated. For example: To display a grey value of 128,128,128 on the screen, the translation table would tell the software to send the value of 130,132,117 instead - effectively compensating the incorrect...

    Monitor Colour Profiles

    Think of the MS color panel as a tool to fix the most obvious color issues, at least you might be able to achieve a neutral grey. This is already a good start into color management, but it does not take into account other factors like brightness and contrast, which are also important for the...

    Monitor Colour Profiles

    I would agree that both methods will not lead to a noticeable difference. A good monitor combined with a good calibration device will result in a delta E of < 1, which means virtually indistinguishable from the "true" colors. Like Tony, I am using a NEC monitor which can be hardware calibrated...

    Monitor Colour Profiles

    You will not be disappointed with the i1 DisplayPro, for sure. As Tony already mentioned, it comes with its own software, but it is also one of the most widely recognized devices, should you ever want to use third-party software. Good luck.

    NIK Software

    Thank you Colin, I did now register as well. Let's see when we will hear back from Macphun.

    NIK Software

    Thanks for sharing this Colin, I was not aware of it. Macphun Luminar is one of those applications I definitely want to try out on Windows.

    Check Open GL support: failed

    Sure Thommy, I am glad it worked!

    Check Open GL support: failed

    No, it was actually the graphics driver I was referring to, not the Lightroom installation. After downloading the driver from nVidia, you run the driver executable - in one of the first screens you should see a checkbox named "clean installation" (or "reset settings" or similar, I am not in...

    Check Open GL support: failed

    Did you try to reset the settings during the reinstallation (the installer offers this option at some early point) or just install on top of the existing installation?

    Using sub-seconds or sth. similiar in filenames

    Not sure if it is already too late or not, but since you are on Windows here is what I am using to work around the inability of Lightroom to handle milliseconds: I am using Breeze Downloader Pro to rename the pictures while copying them to a specific folder of my hard drive, and then I import...

    Monitor Colour Profiles

    Please note that the ColorMunki Smile is actually a recycled version of the EyeOne Display 2 colorimeter and as such is not able to properly calibrate wide gamut displays like yours. Source: Colormunki Smile review by Arnaud Frich If you are interested in properly calibrating your monitor...

    NIK Software

    At some point the Nik plugins will just stop working, likely due to new OS requirements or developments (applies to both Mac and Win). I would start looking for alternatives.

    Optimizing Disk Performance

    If I understood your setup correctly, you currently have all of your images, the previews and the caches on your C: drive, which is a (I assume NVMe) SSD. I don't see a mechanical drive mentioned in your post. Honestly, I don't think adding a second NVMe SSD will make a difference. My PC has...

    backup etc

    I believe this was a typo - it is actually 60 USD (or 70 EUR) per year. I am also using Amazon Cloud Drive as part of my tiered backup strategy: My desktop PC syncs to my main NAS device (with versioning) The main NAS syncs to Amazon Drive Cloud In addition, the main NAS syncs weekly to a...

    Graphics card for a 4k monitor

    Good luck finding the issue... the GTX 960 is a fine card, as you said. I don't believe you would even notice a difference if you replace it with a 1060 model. Please let us know any new findings!

    Graphics card for a 4k monitor

    It might be worth testing a different - preferably high quality - DisplayPort cable (which I assume you use to connect the monitor). I have seen so many examples of low quality DP cables, resulting in anything from no picture at all to issues when waking up from sleep mode. A 4k monitor is...

    backup etc

    Well, the backups can become quite large... I still wish Lightroom would offer options to restrict either the number of backups or delete them after a user-defined period.

    anything besides photoshop

    You are correct, and that is probably why they called it a preview release. Their roadmap for the implementation of new features in 2017 is here: Coming Soon to ON1 Photo RAW – ON1, Inc.
