How to edit raw files in lightroom?

When you edit raw files in lightroom the additional option only I seem to get is to better control the white balance.  Am I missing something?  is it possible to open raw files in camera raw (as in photoshop elements) or can the editing options I have better for all the work of raw (nef) and jpg photos on raw than jpg?  I'm a bit confused by it...

Bob,

You get all the same commands (with the exception of the white balance) with jpeg and raw files. Indeed, the editing goes better with raw. For example, the recovery slider will retrieve parts blown gross, but not blown portions of a JPEG image. As has been pointed out by Clevermonkey, LR offers all the features of Camera Raw (who also edit JPEGs).

  • How to convert raw files from my D300 Nikion for AdobeRGB sRGB?

    How to convert raw files sRGB to my Nikon D300 AdobeRGB files for use in Lightroom and Photoshop?

    I got caught for years in sRGB because I read that it is better for sharing on the web if any alteration in Photoshop may be made.  Now I have the time to focus on learning Photoshop and Lightroom.  Should I opt for color my default AdobeRGB camera mode?  Can I easily convert existing files to sRGB to AdobeRGB in Lightroom/Photoshop?  I understand, as a beginner, is that sRGB files cannot be modified and files AdobeRGB.

    Thanks for your help.

    Save as raw rather than jpg. Then the color profile will not be embedded in the file. Then Lightroom or camera raw can assign AdobeRGB or SRGB color profile.

    BTW, if you choose - choose AdobeRGB and then convert to SRGB, not the other way around. AdobeRGB has a broader that is SRGB. It's easier to strip color to add.

  • GPS data deleted when editing RAW files

    I recently bought a GPS receiver for my Nikon D7100, what records latitude, longitude etc., who appears in the photo EXIF data.

    However, when I change the RAW file in Lightroom (around 4.4) and save the file changed in jpeg format, GPS data has been deleted and will not locate automatically when downloaded from sites like Flickr.

    Is there a way I can keep the GPS data on the processed image?

    Thank you

    Thank you... the box is unchecked.

    I think that I have found a workaround.

    If I save the RAW edited/processed as a .tiff file it seems to preserve the GPS data embedded in the EXIF data and thus can be auto-situé in Flickr

    I don't know anything about Macintosh or its files, but if it isn't
    a standard .txt file, simply read it in Word, and then do a backup with regard
    Save it as a .doc or .docx file.

    why I can not open my D7200 Nikon RAW files in lightroom 4.4, it'll work if I upgrade LR CC?

    Hi mikegcross,

    Nikon D7200 files are not supported in Lightroom 4.4

    Yes, it would work very well after that the Lightroom CC/6 upgrade or you can use Adobe DNG Converter to convert these files to DNG and then import into Lightroom.

    How to edit pdf file (in indesign) without having to re-export then and redo all the fields of the form and formatting?

    Edit PDF files in InDesign is not a good idea. If the file was originally exported ID, then change the original and then create a new PDF file.

    Open an old, and then use the command replace Pages to insert the new pages on the 'old'. The fields that you have already created will remain in place when you do this.
