Absolutely fantastic, what I wanted when I hit Google: This information. What I got when I hit Google: This information. Brilliant. Finishing by the explanation of the (seemingly now archiac?) Lightroom 3 is in fact the addition of all the steps performed previously was the convincing point to get to know your software. Turnkey. Really good work.

First great writeup! Its a really interesting subject.

One thing that will help me is knowing when I have pushed things to far.

Also, any discussions on the Sharpening adjustment you can do with the Brush? I find it really limiting and wish we could dial in similar controls and paint in the sharpness. This is a technique I use in Photoshop when masking doesn’t quite work.

Hi there

Thanks for this article. I’m a bit concerned that when I sharpen my photos in Lightroom they look great and after exporting them and then viewing them on my normal screen you cannot see that any sharpening has been done. What could be the problem?
