LR seems to make adjustments to photos when importing

There are a few versions of Lr, I started to notice that when a photo would charge Lr would be a fit for my photos. Mainly, it seems to be adding a lot of contrast. I was just pulling down the contrast slider when I started to actually edit the photos, but I'm tired to do so.

I shoot with a Canon 5 d Mk III with these settings: 5DIII-Settings.jpg (sharpness: 1, contrast:-3, Saturation:-3).

I like my photos in Lr is fairly flat, so I can add what I want.

I think that my import into Lr settings are not set to make changes. Here is a screenshot: Lr-CC-Settings-Screen-Shot.jpg If I'm wrong or need to look elsewhere. Please let me know.

Finally, here is a video of what I see. First of all, you will see the photo that resembles adjustments of the camera (low contrast and saturation). Then, once the photo is made "loading", the picture will change to have much more contrast and saturation that I think it should.

Help, please!

Thank you.

LR CC

Mac OS 10.10.3

Think of the default values as a starting point for the other settings to develop.

But once you get your own 'look' simply click on the 'more' tab left in pre-defined parameters and check against all applicable settings. Then save under 'My block to import' or what you prefer. You can then select that in the import dialog box and probably a less individual to edition.

  • Why Lightroom 4.4 do not read the photos when importing?

    I insert a SDHC card in a card reader, LR begins, bed pictures and generates a preview of what I can select the photos to import. I click Import and LR displays a progress bar that comes out too fast. When the progress bar ends LR informs me:

    'The following files were not imported because they could not be read. (50)"

    50 is the number of files that 'could not be read.

    1 LR read files to generate the previews.

    2. I can read files with Explorer and copy them into folders.

    3. I can tell LR to add the folders that I copied the files and LR can very well read.

    This behavior is consistent on several SD cards of different cameras with different formats of files (jpeg, nef, mov).

    I am running Windows 7.1 64 bit with a quad core i7 and 12 GB of memory.

    OK, thanks to all who have offered their thoughts and comments.

    The issue was that somehow directory for obtained import defined users - it was more my images. If everyone who rejected the LR error ("could not read files") was on the right track. It can read files fine, but he could not write.  And of course, LR does not and should not have write permissions in the Users directory.

    If Adobe has published a correct error - cannot write a file to the 'users' directory, then none of us would not have wasted our time here. I apologize to everyone for not check to verify that the destination directory has been what I had changed it put. In addition, if a full path was provided with the error message then it would have been obvious what the problem was, even if the message were wrong.

    ssprengel me on the right track. I wasn't going to run LR as an administrator (which would have made the writing of users work, but would be bad), but I went to change the destination directory and found that it was more long my images.

  • ITunes ignores some of my photos when importing

    I do the work of professional photography for some clients, and each day I import dozens of photos in the library of the ipad using wifi sync. Sometimes (rare), some of the pictures simply do not do in the ipad for some reason any.

    Today, I noticed that a specific folder has 7 photos inside, but when I sync, only 3 of these pictures go to the ipad. The four others he'll never no matter what I try. The photos are all a good size (not too big), came from the same camera, same treatment, even resize, but for some reason, these 4 photos will not enter the ipad.

    I also noticed during the synchronization, the progress on the upper bar goes «copy photo 1 of 7...» 2 of 7... 3 of 7... "and then all of a sudden it ends, without even trying to copy the last 4 pictures. This happens in wifi and wired sync.

    I always get the photos by uploading to dropbox and then by downloading on the ipad, but it's a slow process.

    This could be the cause? It feels really frustrating because now I have to double check each photo to make sure it happened.

    Apparently, I found myself a solution:

    ITunes does not seem to work well with my 750 Intel pci-e SSD. I recently changed my OS to a conventional Sata SSD and now itunes seems to be able to get all the photos on the ipad, have not seen a single failure so far.

    I suggest that Apple looks at such things, Pci-e SSDS are more popular and I think that there is an incompatibility with itunes and files when you use this type of drive.

  • Not to remember the last place photo when importing in Lightroom

    I am running Adobe Lightroom CC 2015.6 and when I import pictures I store them on a different HD to the OS which is my D drive.

    Normally, what happens is that Lightroom selects the last location of folder used to store the photos automatically, but since I have updated it keeps defaulting to the root of D.

    Does anyone know how I can fix this apart from changing the situation whenever I have import the photos?

    Thank you!

    Hi MikeyB,

  • Lightroom 3 setting of the photos when importing

    Hi all

    I use LR for a while, and I thought I was pretty familiar with it, but one thing I've never been able to fix is import settings. Minor changes are made to the import (import DNG from a CR2 file). The only I can say have changed are the White Balance [hue:-7], light + [50] and the contrast + [25].

    Is this normal? I need to create a preset that has solved nothing and use it when I import?

    Here is a screenshot of two photos; the one on the left has already been 'adjusted' by Lightroom, the right one does not (where three little points in the upper right corner). I prefer much the appearance not adjusted to the higher contrast, saturated look.

    I'm shooting with a Canon Mark II, and I tried all combinations of settings in the import preferences box.

    Thank you very much

    You bet.

    This should be enough to get you started. If you like certain aspects, but not others, you can change using the DNG Profile Editor (it's not just for DNG).

  • How to select the photos I want to import in the import Windows 7 Wizard, and how to change their name to a group of the name custom when importing?

    Has features missing from Windows XP in Windows 7?

    I'm doing a simple import of photos using the option 'Import pictures and videos using Windows' native Autoplay.

    In Windows XP, I could choose what images to import and give them all the basic name custom during the import process, with each photo added later with a "001", "002" etc using the scanner and Camera Wizard.  It is very convenient because it could have been hundreds of photos on some of my cards from a long period of shots, I could run the tool more than once for different groups of photos that I would choose Import, and the pictures would be get named sequentially and stored in their files you want immediately.  I imported thousands of photos in this way.

    This new tool for Windows 7 allows me to add tags to all of the photos on the cards and devices and name photos after their date, or on the label, or other combinations of that... but why doesn't this new tool in Windows 7 suppose I want to import every single photo on the card device / I just connect and more that I want them all to have the same tag assigned to them?  It's stupid and useless - there, makes only has pictures of a theme on their card at any time that they connect to import their photos and always wants to import everything each time?

    To illustrate this point, let's look at my current situation.  I'm just on vacation in Europe and took pictures to more than one place, I visited, of course and now I would like to mark photos with the location of the names individually... or even more, I would like to actually name photos when importing with the name of the place in the picture.  Scanner and digital camera Assistant & would do that, no problem - you just had to run the tool once for each different group name, then select the appropriate images to import with the same group name.  It has been easy.  This type of naming is far superior to the addition of tags to images named simple-list or date-wise because you can tell what the image file in your library that you want to open just by going to (or get) the group name.  Want to see pictures of St. Peter's Basilica?  If you named the photos with that (added with 001, 002 etc), then simply browse to that name in your folder of photos «The Italy, holiday 2010»  Without trying to find photos Tags into the sea by the name of "IMG20100324005" - soup and no program Photo Gallery Windows Live Photos or necessary Picasa.

    This new program in Windows 7 for the import of images does not appear to be able to handle the very handy feature of its predecessor Windows XP.  It's very frustrating to have opted for the version of Windows newer and supposed to be 'better' but find several programs that have been very useful for XP have valuable features removed or are no longer present at all (like how Windows 7 is no longer a Clipboard Viewer - that has great idea that is?).

    So is it possible to recover the image import feature I apparently lost by 'redevelopment' of Windows Windows 7?  I could of course go and buy an image import and edition program (Smart Photo Import very nice for the price, a quick search I just do), but as this feature was native in Windows XP it is still stupid to have to buy a 3rd party simply program now because Microsoft does not understand the idea of keeping popular features in their software and seems rather "he dumb down.

    Any help to select the pictures I want to import and naming them when importing with a custom group name using the import wizard would be greatly appreciated... + 10 GB of photos and videos of this trip is sitting & waiting for a solution!

  • I use Photos to make a schedule, and when I add national holidays and have a personal calendar already selected for the import, national holidays replace a personal date when the two entries in conflict.  Any suggestions?

    I use Photos to make a schedule, and when I import two calendars of Mac, I can't play well together.  By example, if I add the national holiday calendar to a personal calendar already selected for the import, national holidays replacement a date personal when the two entries in conflict.  Users are allowed to several elements to show on a given date (I can add an article manually; and if I have two elements in a personal calendar, they both matter very well).  Does not seem serious if I import successively or simultaneously, the holidays always seem to prevail on personal items.  I am proud of my country, but want to avoid adding those who back in manually (and avoid having to check everything so closely).

    Any suggestions?  Thank you

    John

    (running Yosemite on a mini 2015)

    There is no way to have both separate schedules added and share a date.  Tell Apple what missing features you want restored or new features added in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

    You could create a new calendar with personal anniversaries and holidays.  I think that would be the case with the exception of those holidays that might change the date to when if fell, which is Memorial Day for one.

  • Synchronized adjustments of photo is NOT visible in the display of the grid, except if the photos are visible on the monitor?

    I find this behavior strange and annoying. Maybe that I've failed to set a correct preference or something, I'm looking for help. Let me explain in detail.

    OK, so I downloaded 900 RAW photos in LR that I am about to use for a period of time. I import them with the "auto tone" setting is applied.  Then, I take the first photo, make adjustments to it, select all the other photos and 'click' sync. I'm in the library grid view Module.  These photos which are visible on my monitor begin to appear the changes that have been applied to the first picture. However, after all the photos that are visible in the grid view show the changes I've made scroll down to see some of the other photos that were NOT visible.  Then, I find that these previously unseen photos have not been changed, but they immediately begin to change as soon as I scroll and they become visible.

    Why LR care I look?  He must know I have synced all and I want that they changed as soon as possible. I don't want to have to keep scrolling to get altered.

    I use a PC with the latest LRCC, Windows 10. But I "ve seen the same behavior on the old Mac too.

    I'm sure this is a normal behavior. If you make changes to a large number of image files (i.e. synchronization is possible with 900 images) previews are not automatically updated. This allows you to continue working on the other images without taking a performance while LR is based previews. The best advice I can give you is to select all the images that have just been published and in the library module, use the menu library > previews > build previews Standard (or 1:1 previews). It will take a while to update 900 previews and inside LR will be slowed until the completion. This gives you the ability to choose when it's convenient rebuild previews.

  • What is happening in the original file of the photo when I import it in Photos and I have the "Delete after import" box checked?

    What is happening in the original file of the photo when I import it in Photos and I have the "Delete after import" box checked?

    When organizing photos for Photos for Mac app, I find that the Photos makes "copies" of files within the library of Photos and must reference a file if your settings are such that you do not copy the original files in the Photos app.

    Trying to manage the disk space for the Macbook Pro.

    The delete after import is available only when you import a device - a camera, card, an iPhone, but not when you import files from a folder on the system drive.

    You can delete the local image files of your system drive yourself, once you have imported the Photos and they were copied in the photo library.

    I would never use the option "delete after Import. The files will be deleted until you can check if the files have been imported correctly. If you find out later, that some of the imported files are corupted and illegible, it will be repeated o toolate import, because the files have been deleted from the device. Or worse, if pictures should plant a reason any during the import, all the pictures will be lost, if you have enabled "delete after import.

  • Improve when importing photos

    In the opening that you used to be able to apply-auto-enhance photos like they were imported.  This has saved be a job having to do it later.  I am also pleased with the results of her auto-améliorer in 99% of situations.  I have now taken pictures but I don't see a similar option on import - no one knows if it is available?  Also and if not possible when importing - y at - it a suite of choice a lot of pictures and then applying the setting to improve in bulk?

    Thanks in advance.

    There is no automatic to apply when importing adjustment.

    And you can't batch apply adjustment either. It is limited compared to the opening.

    What you can do, however, is to adjust a photo you like.  Then copy ⇧⌘C and paste this setting for a different picture with ⇧⌘V

    You must be in edit mode to be able to copy and paste adjustments.  But you can use the arrow keys to advance to the next photo, without leaving edit mode.

    The answer is all one could expect from a "Microsoft Support Engineer". "." It is not an answer, it is a lazy response that obscures the issue. Who the * wants to sit here by clicking on the reference links? Try to take the time to answer the question correctly and clearly. The fact is that Windows Movie Maker, despite its flaws, is logical and easy to learn. Windows Live Movie Maker is the product of developers geeks trying to justify their work by producing a piece of absurd confusion that would be considered to be an 'upgrade' because it seems different from its predecessor. The fact is that Windows Movie Maker is MORE like film professional software publisher of Live Movie Maker, which is just no unwanted standard which is more like a project of diploma a graduate programmer. Movie Maker design allowed me to make the easy transition to the most advanced professional software, but this can never be achieved with the Windows Live Movie Maker, which is ridiculously long as stupid as his name.

  • Lose the photos when you import new

    Hello community,

    I'm probably a dumb user to LightRoom, but I have problems in my workflow. The tutorials that I have reviewed so far are not sufficient for understanding or my question.

    Please find below operations step by step, I had to make the experience of boredom:

    Product of LightRoom, installed with an official number of series, fresh install from scratch

    Opening the software. Create a catalog called Cat1

    Importers 253 RAW format of my series of camera images. The 253 are available in the roll of the bottom of the GUI of LR.

    Make my selection. The treatment of all selected images. Export to .jpg format.

    Importation of 6 new RAW images from the hard drive of the computer.

    Then the 253 photos have disappeared. Only 6 imported new photos when I wanted to add the 6 253 other.

    Is is possible to recover the 253 photos?

    If not, how to add photos to an existing catalog?

    Thanks for your answers,

    Bernard

    Hi Bernard,.

    Please make sure you have the recent Cat1 open catalog in Lightroom.

    Click file > open recent item and check your catalog.

    Also please check in Lightroom in the catalog Panel, if the previous 'Import' option is selected, if so, please select "all photos".
