I am embarrassed to ask this because it is basic and I am a very experienced LR user.
I am a travel photographer and edit on the road nightly on my laptop. When I return home I copy the folder (which is full of hundreds or thousands of Fuji RAF files with their Sidecar Files) of that trip from my laptop to my master drives on my studio PC in the folder organization I desire. (I don't use any of the import catalog techniques.) Then I import that folder (check all the files in it) to my master LR catalog.
I then erase everything from my laptop. Then on my studio monitor which is a big 32-inch pro 4K color calibrated photo editing monitor, I quickly go through the images and fine-tune the editing since I can see much better on the big pro studio monitor. I have a practiced workflow of many years for this, but one irritating thing often happens to me. I get back and find that I made one mistake that I would like to universally correct to 1000 or so images. Maybe 3,000 -- maybe only 500.
For example, I just returned last night from San Miguel Mexico. I shot 2,000 images and had them all edited on my laptop. Each one has slight tweaks that make the editing different to some small (or large) degree. But for some reason I forgot to check Enable Profile Corrections in the Lens Correction Panel. I want to apply that edit to about a third of the images because I shot them with the X100F and its fixed 23 mm lens. The rest I shot with the XH-1 and several XF lenses that have built-in profiles and the box does not need to be checked. My other 12 or so Fuji XF lenses have built-in profiles so I usually don't check that block.
Is the only way to do this is to use Sync and uncheck all the boxes except that one Lens Correction box? I hate that because then the next time I have to go back and check all the boxes I want on my normal Syncs when editing multiple images of the same lighting. Is there any way to apply one correction to say, 150 images, without syncing any other of the hundreds of possible settings?
I wish I could select the images I want, move one slider (or some other single edit) and have only that slider correction applied to all.
Thanks,
