When to go from Lightroom to Photoshop

Hello

I searched the forum and not quite found the exact answer, but I confess, I'm new here so sorry if this is old news.

So, I'm working on my photos in lightroom (do the majority of the edition) and occasionally in Photoshop (fluidity and more nuanced and powerful healing and fading of shit).

My question is: when if the best time to go from Lightroom to Photoshop?  First option: before making changes to lightroom, go into photoshop and make the changes, then apply changes to lightroom to the new tiff file?  Option two: when any changes in Lightroom are fully completed, then send to Photoshop and edit (realizing that once I go to Photoshop, I'm no longer by changing the RAW file, but now to edit the Photoshop tiff file) Option three: anytime?

Are there other options I think not?

Thank you

Jerm

I think you do as much editing in Lightroom as possible, and only then you go to Photoshop for editing you need which is not possible in Lightroom.

Of course, you could go to Photoshop when you want to, but there is little benefit unless you have done as much as you can in Lightroom and still have editing capability that has only Photoshop.

  • Save psd files exported from Lightroom to Photoshop

    Hello world.

    I really hope someone can help me, because I'm about to go nuts here. :-)

    When I export from Lightroom to Photoshop psd file, then I can not save the psd file in Photoshop before you close Lightroom. As soon as Lightroom is closed, there is no problem to save the Photoshop file.

    The error I get is:

    Cannot save 'Filename.psd' because

  • Keep the dng or CR2 files when switching from Lightroom and Photoshop.

    From Lightroom and Photoshop, how can I keep the dng or CR2 files. Now it changes the psd and when I return to Lightroom it removes options in the section of Calibration of the camera, so that while I have a choice (Adobe Standard/camera faithful), after returning from Photoshop file I have "Embedded." How can I keep the dng or CR2 files

    Adding to the good advice of Alfred - a raw file cannot be registered as the other files.

    Its only use is the basis for the creation of new files, which must be regular files, such as tiff, psd or jpg.

    When you edit a raw file in Lightroom, it does not change the file, the changes are written to the catalog.

    Optionally, save the changes in the form of metadata (xmp) sidecar files, or in the case of DNG in the file itself.

  • Why my settings do not stay when I export from lightroom?

    I shot a video with expose too low so I imported into lightroom4 and set up the exhibit, it looks a lot like lightroom, but when I export the video and open it with another program that's just like the original. Why my settings do not stay when I export from lightroom?

    You will need make a new version with the settings being applied during export. Lightroom is non-destructive, while you can see the changes made in Lightroom if you export under the original... it's what you will get, the original unmodified file.

  • Photoshop CS5 64-bit crashes at launch, save as and when opening photos from Lightroom.

    I had this problem intermittently for years with different versions and different computers, but this time, he won't go away.  I need to use the 64 bit version for large files, but it keeps crashing in many different ways.

    1. I open the program from the desktop.  It shows the spash screen indicates the workspace for a few seconds and then hangs with the message:

    Problem event name:APPCRASH
    Name of the application:Photoshop.exe
    Version of the application:12.1.0.0

    Additional information 3:354 b
    Additional information 4:354bf194360e47150cf5d5ca4e71d674

    I use the latest version.

    My video card drivers are completely up to date.

    I use a decent computer with 16 GB of ram.

    I open the program as an administrator.

    I have reset the prefrences too many times to count by removing the prefrences and holding the key ctrl + alt + shift at startup.

    2 - If by some wild stretch of the imagination, I get the prefrences program totally erased first and as an administrator and then the program will plant about 75% of the time when the using the "Save as".

    If I try to do something special like create a new folder to put the file in, then the chances of accident are greatly increased.

    3 - if I try to open a file from Lightroom, even if the files are open in all directions, Photoshop will crash very often.

    What happens here?  I made no change on my computer, have not installed new programs and, as I said earlier, have everything updated.  I even stopped using plugins a long time ago because I didn't want to take the risk that he would cause this fragile program crashing, so all plugins are uninstalled.  Why this keep happening?  When this has happened before everything will work fine for months and then all of a sudden, I can't get the program to open.  When it opens again, for seemingly unknown reason as when he stopped, it works anywhere from a few minutes for even a few months.

    This seems to be a problem having a ton of people, but I was not able to find one another response that 'delete settings' or "Run as Administrator" or "update *.»

    What can I do to prevent that from happening and fix it when it arrives?

    Update - problem solved.

    The problem turned out to be with Avast.  I found other people who have had the same problem with Outlook, and they did to this problem.  Protection of live scripts seems to have caused the crash at startup.  Why it was intermittent to the worst first and got, I don't know, but since temporarily turn off Avast during startup I have not had the problem again.  Now I'll just have to start shopping for more user friendly antivirus software Photoshop.

    Thanks for the tips Mylenium, unfortunately (or fortunately actually for me) I had no conflict of 64-bit.

    The other action I took was to remove all the programs that have been installed since the problem began.  This has not fixed the problem, but it certainly cannot hurt to keep everything that I do not use the computer even when off.

  • PC will not open .jpg to MAC when you export from Lightroom

    When I export a photo from lightroom on my Mac on my external hardrive, they are very good. I can then open it with mac, etc. When I plug in my external hardrive to my PC and open the pictures, some of them only are visible. It looks like 2 different collections of photos. One is. _IMG_xxxx.jpg and the other is_IMG_xxxx.jpg. the. _IMG_xxxx.jpg will open on pc. When I check the properties of the photos that some are newer once I exported from lightroom and some of them are those of an earlier date, and yet I exported just as the exact photo on MAC, Hung my outside up to PC and checked. Did I miss something in my export options? I can export or "save for web" in photoshop (as a jpg file) and have no problems with opening the photos on a PC. Why is lightroom sends me in trouble? Thank you!

    FAT32 should work OK for this purpose I was just curious to know if it was something different.

    I think that what happens is that Lightroom is not correctly check if the image already exists in the folder. Remove the images from your PC or your Mac after you transfer? You might want to try to do only for the Mac (which will remove the dot files too). You can also reset warnings dialogs in Lightroom, which is done in the preferences-> general section.

    I'm under LR5, photoshop CS6, Camera Raw 8.3 on windows 7 64 bit

    Help, please

    It is probably due to the difference of the scaling algorithms in Lightroom and Photoshop when you zoom out. To display an image on your screen to zoom back zoom levels, the program has reduced your image. The algorithm can strongly change the appearance of detail. Photoshop does different things depending on the zoom level. If it's a zoom factor of 2, or a multiple of that (25%, 50%, etc.) it uses a different algorithm that able to zooms (33%, 66%). In Lightroom, at least in the library, he uses a dependent algorithm of the system but he always uses (except at the 1:1 and more zooms). Develop, it is something different altogether. Bottom line is that in any program, you may find real sharpness/detail if you are not 1:1 (100% in the PS) or higher zoom. The algorithm used to reduce adjustment views, has a strong influence on the appearance of sharpness.

  • When switching from Lightroom to Photoshop it default to the workspace 'Start' instead of 'My own work space' which she did before PS updated 2 December 2015

    I guess the title says it all.

    But to summarize.

    I right click on a photo in Lightroom and Edit in PS.

    Before this PS Update December 2, 2015 she would incorporate the photo in the PS as my default work workspace

    Now it is default to 'Start' workspace not what I envisioned.

    When you choose to photograph in the new (open) start any screen works OK

    Figured out how Adobe should have done...

    Go in Photoshop C:\Users\user-name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe CC 2015\Adobe CC Photoshop 2015 Settings\WorkSpaces (modified) and copy your main workspace by default

    e.g. copy My_Workspace.psw and paste it

    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2015\Required\Workspaces CC. In this directory, remove Start.psw and rename My_Worksapce.psw to Start.psw

    Remove Start.psw in the workspaces (modified) [see above] directory as well. PS will create a new one here.

    Make sure that the two new features are selected in the General preferences in PS.

    Now in Lightroom will change to PS, it starts in My_workspace as it used to.  When I opened just PS it now starts in the workspace of beginning.

  • Mobile from Lightroom to Photoshop Fix return question

    As a test I used the access to the camera (button down right in LRM) to take a photo directly from my iPad Pro in LRM. The number of pixels in the long edge of the image is 3264px. I then use the "Open in..." option to send the picture to Photoshop Fix - do some changes and then use the option 'Save in Lightroom' to make a round trip on the image to return to LRM.

    The resulting image has a number of long edge of 2048 pixels.  I know that this subsampling occurs when exporting to LRM to film, but why in this case the return from one mobile application to another.

    Is this something will be fixed in future updates?

    Thank you

    Hi all

    With the release of difficulty 1.3.

    Fix can open images at full resolution instead of the downsizing of the image to 2048px opening compared to the Creative clouds > Lightroom.

    Please update your applications and let me know if this helps!
