The file to use in the develop module

Should what file I use on the module of development?
jpg?

DNG?
RAW?

something else?

Thank you!!

There is no point in trying to convert a JPEG to DNG. DNG is Adobe alternative raw file format. There's nothing wrong with convert to DNG. Many users convert systematically, many others choose not to do so.

I shoot only raw images, and I decide not to convert to DNG. I keep raw images in Lightroom and export JPEG copies when I need to send them to a third party or a laboratory. You will have to decide how you want to manage your own library. It is very difficult to know where to start, then I recommend that you watch a series of short videos to get started using Lightroom.

  • LR download RAW folder backup against opening a file in the develop module? Can I use the same folder?

    IM thoroughly; is confused.

    Starting from a camera card, I import RAW images or "copy as DNG" in LR.

    I create an original backup for security reasons.

    Then, what's next?

    I go back and 'Add' of these original files in LR, see them in the develop module?

    How to create a file of edited images?

    Thanks for your help!

    DNG files and the record, in that they must be visible in the library module and module development. If they are the last images you imported you want to see in the section "previous import." You would work on DNG files. The backup of the original raw files is for archival purposes in case you lose your DNG files at some point in the future and need to replace.

  • I have 6 Lightroom now but if I update to creative cloud and after a period of time you want to return to Lightroom 6 I'll be able to use the develop module in my Lightroom 6?

    Is the develop module of Lightroom 6 still available to me if I return from CC to the product I own?

    Yes but it can be a little tricky.

    LR 6 so the CC 2015 version are exactly the same. The difference is how you connect.

    Sign In with an Adobe ID a is or has been associated with the subscription and it becomes the CC 2015 version.

    Sign In with an Adobe ID that has never been associated with the subscription type and it becomes version 6. So since you have already used an e-mail address to activate the stand alone version 6 you must use a different email address, another ID Adobe buying the CC version. So if you ever want to revert to the version 6 You Sign Out with the Adobe ID email address, which IS associated with the subscription and back panel with the e-mail her IS NOT associated with the subscription.

    Hi Paul,.

    This article was created when users have faced problem with old drivers for AMD graphics card.

    Yes, you can upgrade to the last 16.1 pilots and who should work well however, you should have 1 GB VRAM or more to take advantage of the GPU processors.

    When you use the brush in the development module and I have a lot less brushes to create an image, the program hangs up to what I sometimes have to use windows to complete the task.  I have ICC Intel i7 3.4 and 16 GB of RAM to operate Windows 7.  Why hang up LR

    Doing a lot of brushing up on an image using Lightroom is known to have this problem. The first thing to try is to turn off the graphics acceleration (go to Preferences/Performance tab and then uncheck the box here). IF this does not help, then you can consider doing your brush in Photoshop Elements or Photoshop, instead of brushing in Lightroom.

  • My photos look terrible in the library module after editing in the develop module.  They resemble nothing also.  How can I solve this problem?  Use Lightroom 5.

    Anyone have any ideas?  The only way I can get around this is to export the photo in iPhoto and try to edit about the mess.

    I found the answer to my problem here Lightroom Help | Color management

    This library module uses Adobe RGB, while the develop module uses ProPhoto RGB.

  • Photo disappear in the develop module

    When I open an image in the develop module, it disappears as soon as I press the first controller.

    On the display appears: there is no image selected.

    It is since the last update. I don't know where is the flaw.

    I hope someone here can help me.

    Ute

    First of all, thanks a lot for your answers.

    When I tried to implement your ideas, I noticed that the problem apparently does occur when I select the image of a smart collection.

    When I select the image from a file, everything works as usual. I use lightroom that shortly. Without doubt, I make a mistake with the smart collection.

    I love the develop module, but I'm doing something wrong in the library

    In the library, under 'Catalogue, all the photographs', all my photos appear showing the stars, cropping, and development. The problem is that these changes are not for the photos on my hard drive. When I re-import them in Lr, the changes are not there. My workflow is to do nothing after development or export them to the original with a new file name destination. Anyway, it is that they get a new file name without change of development when they are imported into Lr.  Please help (PC user)

    And others have explained, Lightroom does not apply the changes to the file. All changes are stored in the catalog, and then applied to the image when it is displayed in Lightroom. If you want a copy of the image with any changes so that you can share with others or send it to a laboratory to print, then you must export a copy of this image by using the export dialog box in Lightroom.

    Features of Lightroom as well by its design. The images that you import are always left in their original condition, unmodified.

  • Lightroom CC freezes on loading the second image in the develop module

    I use Lightroom CC on Windows 10 (recently updated to Win7). When I start LR, I can only load an image in the develop module. When the attempt to load the second image, LR is just froze. I left on for an hour now.

    Here are the steps I've taken so far:

    • Restarted LR.
    • Restarted Windows
    • Uninstalled and reinstalled LR.
    • Run LR as administrator.

    None of these steps has made a difference.

    Manually disable the graphics processor in Lr

    1. Go to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Preferences\Lightroom 6/CC Preferences.agprefs (Appdata is hidden folder)
    2. Right-click on the Preferences.agprefs from Lightroom 6 > open with Notepad

  • Image not appearing is not in the develop Module

    I've seen a number of discussions on this, but unfortunately the proposed solutions do not work.

    When I access the image in the develop module it will show initially, but a setting I'll do the image not displayed (they do in the browser preview in the upper left corner), generally the image then disappears. After that, when I select the image it leaves a white screen where the image should display.

    When the question first, I checked and the GPU acceleration could not be turned on due to an error. I went and updated my driver, but unfortunately I have an AMD Radeon 7670 graphics card and I discovered the hard way Lightroom CC is not compatible with this graphics card and the latest driver so when I accessed to develop module lightroom instantly if is crushed, regardless of whether or not the graphics acceleration was lit.

    I was able to go back to the older version of the driver, 13.152.0.0, Lightroom will run without crashing, but still have the original problem, I can't use the develop module.

    Any suggestions? At this point, I'm tempted to restore the previous version of Lightroom, but I'm hoping to avoid that, as I have ingested, the tag and assessed to nearly 2500 pictures and would really prefer to keep this work.

  • I'm editing in the bright room of Adobe and when I change in the develop module, I get the image I want, but when I see in the library module in its final State, it changed and degraded. Why is this happening?

    I'm editing in the bright room of Adobe and when I change in the develop module, I get the image I want, but when I see in the library module in its final State, it changed and degraded. Why is this happening?

    The difference between the raw edition photo and editing a PSD is that the PSD has black points and white pinned to the visible pixel values, the raw photo has still "headroom" with values of pixel darker than black visible and brighter than white, so when you export the raw file , there may be details that have improved (or obscured if it was another type of image) of the perception and mapping of the Compensation of the black spot on the final color profile.

    This means not PS is better or LR is lower, it is enough for you to go to a different type of image.  If you don't have PS to do final Assembly, you can probably do the same thing by exporting the raw in a 16 bit ProPhotoRGB TIF file, re-import this TIF and then set it LR, possibly using the tone curve to make the pitch black dark areas.
