[QUOTE="Revet, post: 330420, member: 17612"] Thanks, Well put!! Thus far, If a had a shoot with let say 100 photos, I import them into Lightroom in DNG format. I do add keywords to simplify that process but have done very little on the presets because I usually have varied pictures (indoor, outdoor, portraits, landscape). I then do a quick survey of all the photos and took the better ones and worked on them in Develop mode. I think now I will create a preset that I like using the tone curve and apply them to all the photos and then take them to the Develop module from there. Sounds like it will be fun playing around with this (I use my second copy of Lightroom for just this purpose so I never worry about clicking away. Although Lightroom is non-destructive, I have done things that screwed things up that took some time to fix.) I have just ordered a comprehensive tutorial on Lightroom and I do see they spend a lot of time on pre-sets, the tone curve, and sharpening. I have watched most of Julieanne Kost's Adobe videos awhile back but at that time I wasn't ready for the split toning, sharpening, etc.. Now I am. Wish me luck!! [/QUOTE]
