    Hey guys, the following problem has been haunting me for years. It is about the correct file renaming when importing images. I often take more than one photo per second. Therefore, the creation date of some files is identical as the EXIF date only goes done to the second (not to miliseconds...

    How to setup Lightroom to automatically remove Chromatic Aberration and apply the appropriate Lens Profile on import

    I kind of like backlit outdoor images and get minor CA on many of them. Lately the Remove Chromatic Aberration and Enable Lens Profiles in Lightroom, both seem to do an excellent job, so I trust them enough now to want those two steps applied during the import process by default. I read some...

    I am a new freelance editor and made a mistake! I edited the lrdata files and now they do not show in the actual catalog when opened. I am new to lightroom terminology and often get terms confused at this point. So my question: Is there any way to link, sync or rename my files so the edits...
