Sharpening in Lightroom Part One — Overview and Capture Sharpening | Laura Shoe's Lightroom and Photoshop Training, Tutorials and Tips

Martin's bookmarks - Tue, 07/05/2013 - 09:21
Sharpening is intended to make edges in your photo look crisp.  It can’t bring out-of-focus images into focus, but if your subject is in fact in focus, it can make it look significantly sharper.    It does this by adding  contrast to edges — that is, it brightens the bright side of an edge, and darkens the dark side.  In essence it adds a very narrow shadow along an edge — and to our eye, shadows make things look more three dimensional.

Adobe Lightroom - Customising Camera Defaults

Martin's bookmarks - Tue, 07/05/2013 - 09:19
Even though Lightroom has had the ability to customise the default camera settings since version 1.1 it seems that many users still persist in creating and applying develop Presets during import or later. Don't get me wrong, develop presets have their uses, but having to filter photos according to Model, Serial Number or ISO speed rating in order that the appropriate develop preset can be applied is both time consuming and in many instances unnecessary. My guess is that users either don't realise that Lightroom is already capable of automating much of this work or don't understand how/when to use this feature.
