These are the types of tutorials I love. Straight to the point, no fluff. If it's too fast, it's easy to pause. Thank you. I wish you had something like this for Astrophotography processing in Photoshop!
Congratulations Ed, you are THE first Vlogger I've come across to actually understand the value of making YOUR cursor more visible for the viewer, making it exponentially easier for us to follow along!! I've been making that suggestion to others for ages! Also congrats for a really great run through and not passing out from hyperventilating! Breathe indeed Lol! Seriously though, I enjoy your vids and learn tons from them so thanks and keep them coming.
I am pretty sure I learned more in these fifteen minutes than I did the first half of the semester of my Lightroom course at the community college. Thank you so much. I can't wait to view more!
This is an awesome introduction! Spending just a few minutes going over everything that's available is way more helpful to me than lengthy tutorials on every single section. I feel like I know enough to play around now and I can find more advanced tutorials for the sections I want later.
I had a little introductory lesson on Lightroom basics today and then watched this video straight afterwards. Going at speed was fantastic because everything I wanted to reinforce meshed together beautifully - and then I went back and looked more closely at what you clicked on. I've subscribed, thank you.
I have had Lightroom for awhile and have been blindly stumbling around in it, watching other training videos too. You have taught me a few things even the others never mentioned. Handy, now I just have to practice some more. Thank you.
Wow that guy is a legend not actually just teaching you a lot in 15 min but also did u notice how confident you were during the whole time like brooo i was just enjoying this guys Love you sir
And Breathe! Thank you for this amazing tutorial! I will take a tutorial like this 100% of the time over presenters who are long winded and take forever to get to the point!
On my channel I have a video for absolutely every section of Lightroom. So just stick around on my h channel and you’ll learn it all. Happy you found me.
Thank you. Amazing coverage in 15 minutes! I will view your complete LR course. A question first, if I can. Why do you import a photo to be edited from one source (column #1) and export it to another (column #3)? Can you just edit a photo in it's source location?
Great tips, but i think it is important to select the color profile (lowest setting in develop module): choose camera standard or other camera profile versus lightroom profile before all edits.
I've noticed that when viewing a photo for the first time in Lightroom it looks "plain" (the RAW image) until it has finished loading, and then Lightroom applies some minor tweaks. usually they're pleasing, but I'm curious as to whether this can be turned off so that I am only seeing the plain RAW image.
Actually it’s the other way. It shows you an embedded preview which is a jpeg (even if your not shooting jpeg). When it fully loads this is the actual RAW file and Lightroom has added nothing to it. I hope this helps.
I'm hooked, I would not look any were else to learn, was not real sure about it ,now can't wait to use it Great job Ed the more you dish out the better
Got to be honest although that is possibly the best Ive seen to date for a beginner with a big fat B,i'm still a bit lost, however I will get there by asking totally biff questions, the first being...... are these images RAW images and can you only work with RAW images, with jpegs are you pretty much stuck with what comes out of the camera? Sorry for the biff Q,and tnx in advance for any answer.
Many thanks Ed for this great tutorial! It really is a lot of time, effort and valuable skill you and other awesome people put into these tutorials. It's wonderful to have such great people in the world willing to share their knowledge with others :)
This is perfect thank you! I usually speed up videos when I watch them because they go all round the houses a very slow speed, whereas this was straight to the point and quickly!
+Amique Khan Thad a great idea. You should try this one I made. It is similar and tells you all the things most people want to know. Quickly. ua-cam.com/video/2307e8iGDo0/v-deo.html
What beautiful photos! The blonde blue-eyed was exquisite. What fun tutorial, I need a slower one, I was n with support for 5 hours yesterday. 6 weeks with not being able to do anything, 3 remotes from them and countless tutorials. I'm starting over today and hope I can use it!
I really wanted to give this video a Like but I couldn’t because you said it would be 15 minutes but it was actually 15 minutes and one second! Haha! Just kidding, great info! Thank you!
Very Helpful! Loved the straight forward point. Will be checking out your expanded tutorial. I have always been a photoshop user but need to make the change.
Superb Training Ed - Thanks! I just happen to be using my wife's computer and obviously my name isn't Betty (it's Rod) - but if she was into photography like I am - she will say the 15 minute overview was outstanding and superb as well!!! Thanks so much.
Really brilliant. Have been using Photoshop for over 20 years but decided that LR was now more suited to my needs but couldn’t face a new learning curve. Your great video is a great help and andI’ll now be able to get to the finer points in your other vids. Many thanks. Subscribed.
Maybe you are using the new Lightroom cc. Which is not this software. This is now called Lightroom cc classic. I have a video on how adobe completely messed up their branding naming and just about everything in this release.
Thank you for the reply, yes I think you are correct, I have only just subscribed and get the classic, the CC plus PS. I must admit I am struggling to use it but I will get there and Thanks for all the videos. :)
Hello My friend I just started to make some professional Lightroom, Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effect if you are interested it will be great to check them out and give me your opinion about it :)
...you are a fabulous instructor -- straight to business and to the point. I love hearing that without much of blabbering I have seen elsewhere. Keep up the good work, mate. You also have a perfect setting for the tutorial. Clearly a brilliant overall setup, clear sound and to the point -- what ones need to know. Perfect!
Edward, bro thank you for this!! I'm just about to get Lightroom and this will help me so much! It's always overwhelming to learn a new program, but this tutorial is amazing! Have a great day bro!
Does anyone else feel the composition of the video is a bit too distracting with all the studio lights in the background? Feels like it's detracting from the subject of the video. I mean, do I need to see all those lights, your computer with all it's reflections and details when what's really important in the video is the speaker and what he has to say. Perhaps you can start the video with your current wide shot to set the stage and then cut in close for the meat of the video.
No Ray. Rather than be very close to a polite troll and criticizing the inconsequentials that are meaningless, did you call out any key points or tips that may have been helpful? LIKE ALL OF IT?? No, you didn't. It was extremely well done. Go play kiddie director at the kids table and stop being a tosser. If you're distracted , you have bad ADD. There are plenty of videos about ADD and OCD and clearly you're spending too much time in the wrong category. I keep forgetting that your version of freedom of speech must be a license for freedom of stupidity. Think Ritalin. Then come back and watch the video. And your dog is stupid too. Put that pooch on a diet.
I don't think so. Ed is very eloquent and professional. I have seen many other videos that even when they are rich in content are poor in delivery. He does a great job and I will begin to Follow his channel just because he gives me all I need in a short amount of time. In this video, for example, he gave me tons of information about Lightroom in only 15 minutes! That's what I want to see. Effective and efficient information delivery for those of us who don't have time for more.
I have a 100% free Lightroom 3 day course to kick start and get you inspired. You can sign up for it here members.photosincolor.com/courses/lightroom-like-a-pro-member
Thank you for taking the time and sharing your knowledge. I am a complete beginner and never though I would take photography, let alone sit and edit photos, but here I am and this is very helpful. Keep going! Cheers R
Great video, LOTS of useful information in a very short time. Great video to bookmark and keep coming back to. Never had a chance for my ADD to kick in. : ) Nice job.
Well done ! I love the condensed version, there are plenty of individual detailed vids but your version just neatly put them together. Now, its time to pick detailed parts knowing how they fit into the BIG picture. Again, many thanks and well done. Best regards Neil
I'm a beginner. This is exactly what I needed. It's fun, engaging and informative! Add that to the fact that I didn't fatigue myself out listening to someone drone on for 2 hours and I'm sold! Defo subbed ya, mate!
You are amazing helpful mate. I just started learning Lightroom with this video now. I will watch the other videos as well. Good luck with your works. Cheers.
MOST informative, very knowledgeable, and... the best bit (lol!) the closing "goofs!" LOL. You give me courage to present my edited clips (aka goofs!) Thanks.

Tried your hack
💀 kono powa
7.25 minutes

6 years after the video was posted and you're still teaching people how to use lightroom with this video.
Thank you very much this helped me a lot!!

+William that really is Lightroom and light-speed huh. Pretty fun to learn so much so fast though. Thanks for watching.
William iam big fan
Holy moly. Dude, that was seriously concise! The value of a few seconds of this video surpasses entire minutes of other channels’
He said 30 secs of break coz he was out of breath but he didn't stop at all lol
Lol
I noticed a cut, well done. Looks like he never stopped.
hahah thats exactly what i was about to comment on
because he wanted to promote stuff
LOL he cannot rally do the break on line HAHAHAH
Why can't other teachers online be this succinct.. this is all i need. Brilliant, :) thanks so much.

where did you find that introduction? I can't find Library mode so can't even start this video lession😆
Oh boy. This one is so packed with information, it bears watching multiple times. Thanks, Ed!
This is literally the perfect tutorial. No bullshit, no tedious filler explanations. Great video!

i needed a lightoom refresher as i havent used it again for years. this is an awesome straighforward tutorial.
Thanks - just what I needed. I'm a wiz in Photoshop but need to step up my Lightroom game. This was the perfect crash course!!!
Why? Cant you do it all in PS?
You should be able to do the same edits i Photoshop, it also has the option to alter lighting, sharpness etc just as easy too
I liked the quick review of all the options available. Thanks for the quick tutorial !
This video was amazing and exactly what I was looking for, a crash course.. Thanks you SOOOOO MUCH!
A pretty crazy fast crash course. I had to lie down after making it.
@@clearlyed Brilliant
This is a 4 year old video but i keep on repeating every single detail. 😍
Thanks man.
is there a tutorial that tell us what tools like highlights, luminance, tone curve, etc, do to a photo? im trying to look for one.
On my channel I have a video for absolutely every section of Lightroom. So just stick around on my h channel and you’ll learn it all. Happy you found me.
That was one of the best tutorials I have seen! Skipped all the unnecessary talking and got stuck into it. Bravo!

You definitely can yes. You just select add in column 2. But you must already have it on your computer or HD. Don’t ever do this from an sad card.
THIS IS GREAT I love the quick walk through where the controls are and what they do. Is a HUGE TIMESAVER
many thanks !!!
Holy SHIT that was good. Literally just installed lightroom and I am feeling far more confident now. Thankyou
The BEST channel I´ve ever learnt from. SO thankful!!!!! Regards from Uruguay!!
Great tips, but i think it is important to select the color profile (lowest setting in develop module): choose camera standard or other camera profile versus lightroom profile before all edits.

awesome. and thank you for subscribing. ill be having a new Lightroom tutorial this week.
Wow. Amazing. Best brief introduction. Really great sample, illustrative images as well.
Is this version the package with Photoshop or the package with 1TB? Confused about the rebranding - great video
this looks to be the photography plan and he's using Lightroom Classic CC
