Thanks so much for creating this video. Not only was it the help I needed to improve my B&W processing but it also gave me some new insight on how to look for potential B&W photo subjects.
I really appreciate your videos. There's no babble, straight to the point with the perfect amount of explanations, served with a soothing voice, first stop for video editing tips!
great info - been using LR for years and while many of your steps are something I already do ... the points about profile and calibrations ... I was unaware of. I never come away from your videos w/o learning something NEW . Thank you.
Thanks, now I would love to see a video showing photos that are much much better in B&W. Yeah, B&W is nice sometimes, but most of the time I don't even think B&W.
Off to Yosemite now Anthony. Would love to see a Zone preset in there. Really lovely. Thanks Anthony. I've just digitised some B&W negatives I took interest 70s that I'll play around with soon. Your tips will certainly come in handy. Thank you once again.
Outstanding video. As always, you did not promote yourself. I purchased your presets a while ago. You prepared 25 black and white presets that out shine to one’s that come with Lightroom. For your viewers, check out his presets.
Merry Christmas Anthony Been a long time subscriber and always learn something new from your videos. I’m very interested Ed ted in learning low key black and white processing and hoping you can do a tutorial on that please. I have some images sourced from other photographers that I can share if you’d like All the best in 23. Andy
Anthony, could you please make a video on the Calibration tab, explaining a little more in detail, what exactly is going on when you move those sliders? Many videos say just move the sliders and see what happens, but I like to understand a little better, what is exactly impacted and why. This option seems not to be in the Lightroom, just in the Classic version. Why? Many thanks.
Why tone the colour image? To me I would apply B&W profile first so your adjusting B&W image. 1.profile 2.calibration 3.Tone 4. B & W - Colour Luminosity Sliders Then the rest…,
@@AnthonyMorganti Anthony you take the stress out of Adobe products. Excellent content and a soothing presentation. Easy to understand graphics and examples. I used to dread using Lightroom and PS and could not keep up with the changes. Thanks.

Awesome view of B&W post. Couldn’t imagine 10 steps but as always, you were spot on!
Incredible video, thanks! Clear and succinct. I've never seen anyone cover the basics like this. Much appreciated, cheers!
Thank you!! This was so helpful!
great info - been using LR for years and while many of your steps are something I already do ... the points about profile and calibrations ... I was unaware of. I never come away from your videos w/o learning something NEW . Thank you.
Thanks Anthony foe sharing. A very easy and informative video. One worth keeping. Cheers Dave.

Thank you Rob!
Thank you so much for all your videos ! I'm learning so much ! Could it be possible to see more videos on portrait ?
Kévin from denmark :)
Anthony...when using Gigapixel AI, would these steps be taken before sending the image to Gig Ai....or after?

Is it important to do these edits in the specific order you have specified? If it is can you please explain why. Another great tutorial btw.
What do you think of LR's auto white/black point? Is it accurate?
Thanks. Is there a way to print your list of steps? Thanks again.
Why tone the colour image?
To me I would apply B&W profile first so your adjusting B&W image.
1.profile
2.calibration
3.Tone
4. B & W - Colour Luminosity Sliders
Then the rest…,
I appreciate your teaching, but is there a chance you could use a different image for a change?
Hello, Do you have any presets for sale would like to try some have never used them before Thanks!!!
