import into Lightroom 5 is automatic, color/contrast change?

Was hoping you could shed some light on something for me.  After you import Lightroom 5 by clicking on an image for 1-2 seconds it looks as it did when I shot (nice contrast, nice colors etc.). After 1 or 2 seconds to bland seams of color and contrast to change so I do use lightroom to bring what she looked like, why is this?

It is normal for some GROSS photos imported into Lightroom. Initially, Lightroom displays the preview JPG embedded in the RAW file. then after he has a chance to make the photo, it shows you the RAW format, essentially non-edited. There is no way to disable this option. You can configure a develop preset that is applied to the import which will automatically the photo look more to your taste.

  • An import to Lightroom means an automatic download to the creative cloud?

    Hi, I am puzzled because I didn't consciously choose to download one of my photographs to cloud creative (Adobe Lightroom has sent me an email informing me that the photos are waiting for me on my mobile device). I've been working and learning with Lightroom however and through this process, I imported my photos into Lightroom. Thus, an import to Lightroom means an automatic download to the creative cloud? I'm not ready ready yet to use the CC storage for any of my files yet. If they have been uploaded - how can I access remove? Gosh, it makes me nervous as I want to be in charge... your help is much appreciated...

    No, the files are not automatically sent to the creative cloud when you import them into Lightroom. In order to have images in the cloud of Adobe creative, it must create a collection in Lightroom, choose the images you want to share via Lightroom online or via Lightroom Mobile. You will have to consciously choose to share this collection before sending them to the cloud. If you have inadvertently shared a collection, it's simple stop sharing by clicking on the small icon to the left of this collection. You are in complete control of what you share and do not share in the cloud. You could take the time to watch this video. It will give you a good introduction to the functioning of Lightroom Mobile:

    Lightroom CC - go Office Mobile - An Introduction to Lightroom for mobile - YouTube

    If you want to see what so-called pictures are waiting for you, you can go to Lightroom.adobe.com and sign in with your Adobe ID and password. You will be able to see what, if any, the pictures you shared. I think that this message you have received is just a friendly reminder invites you to start using the feature. But I could be wrong.

    Recovery of DNG issue: I have photos stored on an external hard drive which have previously been imported into Lightroom and converted to DNG.  The laptop on which I was running Lightroom died and I had to replace the hard drive and rebuild the computer.  In the process of my Lightroom program and catalog related to these images have been lost.  When I re-associate these photos with my new installation of Lightroom and a new catalogue is there a way to retrieve the keywords or other changes or metadata catalogue Mountaga?  Is any of this information embedded with the imge DNG file or was it only in the cataloght lost on my failing hard drive? I re-import just as if it were new images with no prior treatment of Lightroom?

    By default, LR saves all changes in the catalog, and that applies to any type of file.

    Optionally, you can save changes to the file as well, for raw files owners, this will create a xmp file - for DNG that changes are going to be cooked in the file, without additional xmp file.

    But it does not default. Go to the catalog and parameters under the control of metadata automatically save changes to XMP.

    Unless you do this, the changes are saved only in the catalog.

    Hope this makes things clearer.

  • Import into Lightroom

    My photos will not appear on the left of the screen.  This is why I can't import into lightroom.  I have a new mac so just get used to it.  When I click on the photos to my albums are but the only option under 'Photos' in the table of Lightroom's 'Lightroom' but I have no pictures there that I'm just getting started!  Help!

    Hi ann-mariek,.

    You have all your images to the title of the Photos App on your mac, you must export your images out of the Photos app and save it to a specific location (internal or external hard drive), now when you browse this site under Lightroom since the import window and then you would be able to import images into Lightroom.

    Kind regards

    It looks like you can be pretty new to Lightroom.  If this is the case, you will find Victoria Bampton useful books:

  • I had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos of cecently.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

    I recently had to rebuild the computer and reinstalled the photos.  I have photos imported into Lightroom, but the parameters associated with the photos, that is to say. When they were developed, are not there.  How to import these?

    Default LR stores all changes in the catalog file, not in the pictures. So if you have a backup of your original catalog you will need to copy on the newly rebuilt system and open it in LR. You will then need to recreate a link to the images in the catalog depending on where are your images and where the original LR catalogue think they are.

  • camera Sony 7r mk can if display impossible to generate the preview when you import into Lightroom 2 - get

    Hello

    Does anyone know how to get the Sony raw (ARW), taken with the new camera Sony 42megapixel, working with Adobe Lightroom.

    When trying to import maps on my pro Sandisk extreme sd in Lightroom app said: Impossible to generate the preview for files that have been taken with this camera... I can't import these files.

    Lightroom says cannot import files-non recognized by the raw support in Lightroom.

    However, the raw files generated by the camera of Sony a7rs, imports and plays well with Lightroom...

    I'm now using lightroom 6 edition of lifetime license not CC (just updated to 5.7).

    I thought that this upgrade would have solved this problem... but it doesn't seem to be the case.

    Is someone having a similar problem... and if so how is it resolved.

    Hi robertlue,

    Sony 7RM2 files are supported in the latest version of Lightroom is 6.1.1 (Camera Raw 9.1.1)

    Make sure your Lightroom is so far through this link: keeping up-to-date for Lightroom

    Then, try to import into Lightroom.

    Kind regards

    You must be

    OR

    The free Adobe DNG Converter version 9.0 or later, use this to convert RAW to DNG, and then import the DNG in your Lightroom

  • RAW NEF images are completely different (darker) when they are imported into Lightroom?

    Recently I faced a problem for my RAW of NIKON D750 images after imported into Lightroom.

    For example, the brightness of the RAW images I shot in the camera is completely different after imported into Lightroom.

    Yes, the RAW files include more data that can be adjusted backwards in brighter in Lightroom, but it occurs the most noise to the image that I don't really like.

    I just curious is my setting in camera (maybe the screen is too bright perhaps?) or it is common that viewing through the camera LCD screen is brighter than the visualization in Lightroom?

    Behind closed doors (the brightness I want):

    20150606_122350.jpg

    Through Lightroom:

    Untitled.png

    If you want to be in non-Nikon raws software processing, turn off the ADL and leave it off.   The same applies to other settings where the camera is something special for lighting or the brightness of the camera jpg.

    ADL will deliberately underexpose the image, then artificially pushed the dark areas while leaving only brighter area.  This more dynamic compress in the camera-jpg, but will make no-Nikon software see the true underexposed image.

  • Why records are imported into Lightroom remaining gray?

    Remaining files imported into Lightroom 5 gray, why? I am a fairly experienced user of LR5 and have been using it to organize my photos for a few years now, and I've never had this problem before. It happens when I import directly from my card using a card reader and also if I download on the computer and import from there. Same result, so be it: once I have imported the photos folder arrow remains gray. I updated the folder locations and synchronized folders, and there is no change - folder stay grey arrows. What happens and how can I solve this problem?

    Thank you.

    Are the grey icons or the grey triangles? If the triangles are gray dark, it means simply that there is no subfolder in this folder. If they are light gray, it measnyou can check the triangle and see the subfolders in this folder.

  • If I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements, I can't re - import into Lightroom. If I open the file on my Mac, the image is present, but Lightroom is not 'see' at all.

    For some reason, does not recognize my Lightroom (Mac) 5 images in folders on my Mac I have edited in Photoshop Elements or perfect 8 effects. If I have previously imported images in a specific folder, Lightroom will show these images grayed (as usual), but will not display other images I've saved later in this file. Similarly, if I, say, select three images in Lightroom to use the option of Photomerge in elements, later saved image will not be recognized by Lightroom.

    I tried to move locations, record under I don't know how many different formats etc., but the problem persists. No problem importing existing images to SD card or old files on the computer.

    It's very frustrating!

    The file with the name "panorama.pds Lakes" cannot be imported into Lightroom, maybe you mean that it must have the .psd extension?

    But I really want you give me an example: Specifies the name and the extension of a picture that cannot be imported into Lightroom.

    Also, when you say that you drag the image from your desktop and LR opens, but the image does not appear, what appears? You have enabled filters (if so, please disable filters with Ctrl-L once or twice and see if the photo appears.

    Uninstalling and reinstalling are a last resort and probably a waste of time at this stage.

  • Pano merged do not import into Lightroom

    I tried to understand this one for a while with limited success.  It has been a problem for a few months now.  A 5Dmkiii, trying to merge a relatively large number of panoramic photos of several rows of shooting.  Running a MacPro with 32 GB of RAM, hard disk of 500 GB SSD with about 80 GB of free space.

    After updated most recent (a few days), fuse worked fine for 3 or for mergers, but now it does not work yet.

    The question:

    Afree choosing pictures of as fusion, I see the preview and click on merge.  Before the end of the progress bar I get an error message saying "unable to import photos merged into lightroom" and whem I look for fusion image sound nowhere to be found. of how ice found in the forums and elsewhere, it sounds like a memory problem. But with 32 GB of ram? Where and how do I free up space to see if it is the real problem? And if it is not the question, what would it be?

    Thanks to all those who have the time to give this a minute!

    Kiel

    There is a limitation on the size in pixels for the result of panorama.  Could this be it?  What is the size of panorama expected based on the original pixel dimensions and amount of overlap.

    If you export to JPG format and perform the merger on jpg files work?
