Can you sit up straight on your bed?

Great video thank you. The music wasn't that helpful. It didn't add anything and was quite distracting.

only thing that did any difference and wasn't already applied is pulling detail sliders to zero. So, quite a small optimization compared to other software i use. they could use half res images or sth for editing but no

Finally updated my 2015 Lightroom. Thank you for the help on spot removal. The new Lightroom was not intuitive on this functionality.

Can't you just plug your laptop into your network when you get back home, then use "Import from another catalog"?

Fantastic.Just trying out LR Cloud . I don't think I'd have found Single Panel Mode by accident - particularly as Adobe have decided to call it something different!- Search for Solo mode yields no results. Thank you

Excellent video! Thanks

Hi Michael, Just came across this video. Thankyou for championing one of lightroom’s least understood features. Couple of points. 1. I normally auto stack with a 3 second filter which unless I am doing long focus bracketing shots seems to neatly separate out high speed bursts, in camera focus stacking and as an OM user Procapture bursts. 2. The small tile with the number in at the top left corner is intelligent. If you click on the tile in the first image in the stack it expands or closes the stack as you said. If you double click on any of the other tiles in the stack it will promote that photo to the top of the stack. If you shift click the first image tile it will open the stack and select all images in the stack (useful in a focus stack so you can export all images to stacking software). If you right click the tile it will display a stacking menu. 3. I use stacking to cull photos- shift click a stack to select them all, either use N to show a grid of all the photos in the stack or F and direction arrow to flick through the images and choose the one’s I want to keep. Press backslash to remove the ones you want from the selection then backspace to delete the rest. If I don’t want any of the stack just backspace to delete them all. Adobe produces fantastic software with some amazing usability features that are sometimes documented only in some deeply buried support article. Thanks for the video

Great video Michael and something I'll have to start doing. Just a question though - 4 minutes in, when you're in Survey View, you click on a few different images and they're all highlighted. If I click on one, then move to the next one, it doesn't keep the first one. What do I do to make sure each image stays in the selection?

In the Develope Module..Lightroom all of a sudden is closing an editing panel as soon as I open another panel. How do I turn this auto-close feature off? It is slowing me down to constantly reopen panels. Thanks in advance. Phil

Thank you for this lesson!! Do you know if I can switch to the black and white overview with the mobile version also? Thanks again!

I think a lot of people would be surprised if they knew how many great waterfalls Arkansas contains. I've shot Falling water Falls at times when the area under the falls was almost dry and when it's roaring like when you were there. IF there's water it's a good Fall shoot as well!

WOW! Finally a tutorial that actually explained the usage of the curves in the real world and gave useful tips. Keep up the great work man!

Awesome! Thanks for doing this video. I've been looking to streamline my LR workflow so I can edit my real estate photography faster and without clicking around and scrolling all the time. This was a real help in making my editing process more efficient.

Amazing shots. What waterfall is this in Arkansas?

That last shot is 💯

I definitely would have cleared that deadfall by hand haha. That last image is stunning. Love the softness of the ripples in the water and how they allow those reflections to come through. Great work man.

Do you ever pack snacks for a few days and after the first day your like damn 😂 it's crazy I go through snacks like crazy sometimes

Been too long since I've been up there. Had plans this spring, but never came together. Need to correct that this fall.

I love your videos, they are such great and helpful tutorials! The pace is great and so are your examples. Thank you so much :)

A great walkthrough, Michael! Would love to leave a personal comment, as someone that been using Lightroom since it's inception and Photoshop since v4.0 - and taught classes in Lightroom specifically at Apple and for NatGeo photographers. 0. Unless you're married/paying for Adobe Cloud Sync -> always stop/disable it first before anything on import. You can always upload to Cloud later, if you choose so, but it does slow import A LOT. 1. Have the right hardware. The workflows of editing in-the-field on a laptop is vastly different from having a dedicated in-house workhorse machine. Just like 3d-modelers buy a specific combination of CPU+GPU for Maya/3dMark processing, photogs need to be wary of that as well. Certain GPU cards are more tailored, and there are ways to optimize them (plenty of tutorials online on that alone) for LR/PS use + drivers. - Older catalog/images, check your Develop-> Calibration options, as Michael pointed-out, sometimes it's more efficient, or if you want to upgrade to a newer processing backend, sometimes there is improvement, even on older hardware. - Not advised, but doable - have the highest throughput RAM you can, and if you can over'clock it, will improve processing - BUT ONLY if your PC can handle it. As noted, not advised (if you don't know what you're doing, don't do it), but can help if you're dealing with massive uploads, or trying to review/quick-edit files from say Sony α7 III or Hasselblad X2D 100C, even tethered. 2. I deal with often 180gb of photo drops daily. Have the fastest dedicated SSD for your catalog, linked with second "slower" SSD for your main import drop. 3rd HDD for storage...and I personally have a few 4th HDDs for once-a-day sync to back up both the catalog and after-culling folders for long-term storage. Twice-a-month, the entire stack of 3rd and 4th is getting backed up to a 8x HDDs RAID'ed NAS. Basically, triple redundancy. I have near zero trust in any online storage solutions, or how those images "might" be scraped in the modern age, everything is stored locally. 3. The preview-adjustment and smart preview is a great cache-saving tip, if you're a laptop user. Highly recommend, as you mentioned. For PC-users, start with 32gb of dedicated RAM at least. 4. Optimizing catalog, my team does it 2x+ times a day, basically when we get a coffee break :) Made a custom script for it, two buttons press, and you can walk away from keyboard while it's processing. Personally, I found about 12-15% speed improvement in LR doing that regularly. Kudos on that tip. 5. Camera Raw Cache - great tip as well, but based on your hardware. LR cache "sometimes" can conflict with Windows cache based on SSD your're running/priority level, and how they overwrite themselves -> you can set priority of apps. Ideally, you're only have LR open so it doesn't conflict with ANYTHING. But changing priority of app that has access to cache will improve performance by maybe 3-5%, from personal experience. It really makes a difference with big catalogs - say you shot a wedding and have 4.5K of photos to process -> every percentage counts when you're trying to cull a on the tight deadline. 6. Detail/Sharpening - Will absolutely bog LR down if you do it first, should always be the last step, before export. Hope this tips help someone! :)

HOW THE F ARE WE SUPPOSED TO KNOW THIS. sorry, i am upset. WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE OLD CROP where we just dragged it accordingly. WHY DO WE HAVE TO PRESS A KEY NOW. it's really frustrating, what sort of genius said, "Oh lets change the way crop works, just for the fun of it!". and some other genius replied, "Hey that's not a bad idea, lets do this!!"

Very cool tip!

Michael this was excellent. Thank you! I'm subscribed.

Great video - THANKS! BUT I have a big problem maybe you can help with, PLEASE. For background, I do architectural photography and occassionally create a virtual copy to zoom into a detail. That is, I want both the zoomed and unzoomed versions. The problem is they STICK TOGETHER even if I "unstack" them! I like to move the zoomed (unstacked) version to another location in my export by simply renaming it (I always sort by filename) in the Library page. This used to work perfectly, but now the images STICK together no matter what I do. Unstacking seems to have no effect - they should rename it "glue." What am I missing - or is this a bug you may have heard about? I'm using a Mac if that provides a clue. Thanks again for a great channel.

hmmm, I wonder why L for me creates a new mask instead of going into Lights out mode

How about leading a workshop at Eagle Mountain Lake? Or just a walk along!

Very clear! Thanks so much!

An excellent and informative video. I like your clear and easily understood explanation.

This is a great video! Thank you! Finally I can use High speed shots without having to think about what a hassle it will be in Lightroom.

Another great video. Thanks Michael! Definitely need to plan another trip to Utah, SOON! :)

Very nice Michael. I've been wanting to visit Cottonwood Canyon since I first started researching Utah. Closest I made it was the Old Paria Movie Set which isn't really a set anymore. lol And the Toadstools. One day. Great video. Thanks!

You deserve more but im retired. Lol

Thanks!

What a beautiful area. We were all glad you could make it to Lone Pine.

Omg! So unfortunate!! 😂

Thank you. This will be very helpful

Wonderful adventure! My condolences on your mother’s passing. I am sure she was hiking with you. I see you use Pro Media Gear. I have their brackets for my Nikon D850 and Z9., rock solid.

Good stuff. thx for your time on this.

This was really helpful and informative. Thank you for spending the time and explaining things so clearly.

Thanks for really simplifying this!

awesome video

Thank you.Excellent

I use Survey mode all the time. The only issue is it's taken a performance hit over the last year or so from the updates. I used it a lot to steer sets to being cohesive, have a second screen in Survey mode whilst the other one in Develop fine tuning the edit. But when doing this the Develop mode becomes sluggish. Quitting Survey on the second screen and putting it back to Library (Grid etc) fixes that issue. Shame because it was definitely my preferred second screen display option.

How does your bed frame “float” above the pull out tray? Sure would like to see how you built your bed frame.

Good info! Thanks

Do you have to pay for Lightroom twice? Once for the laptop and once for the home computer?

Haahaa, you do!!

How do you show the navigator window?

Hello Michael. I own a small studio with a nas server. We store all our files there. In order to edit we need to move the catalog on a local hdd or on the Mac desktop. That is slow and inconvenient. We need to click each directly from the nas server instead. Lightroom says it cannot open a catalog on an online nas server (Synology ds923). We have bypassed it for our windows pc with a line of code but we cannot do it on our 4 other macs. Is there a solution? I could defined pay for a solution of that kind. Or if there is someone on this comment sections. Thanks!
