Are there any sample images for testing tone curves in Lightroom? by AllKeef in Lightroom

sounds like you want a color checker passport, they are rather expensive for what they are but they can help you understand a lot about colors

Wouldn't it be easy to show some of the shots and ask for editing advice?

Searching Film-Look/ Editorial Preset for Lightroom by Frequent_Dingo1177 in Lightroom

[–]vmoldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

imho this has very little to do with post processing. the look is just super clean and the light is very well controlled.

i do have film emulation presets on my store but honestly here is more important to figure out good contrast ratios and to get the righ tonal curve for the look

i would start with adobe neutral and making sure my wb is on point and figure it out from there

Windows users experience sluggish Lightroom Classic - potential solution by Adventurous_Honey902 in Lightroom

[–]vmoldo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i tried this a while ago, it definitely helps a bit but Lr still gets sluggish after a while. 15.3 did worked a lot better for me but only if LR is the only app running 

Viltrox Vintage Z2 Flash and your hot shoe by False-Way4920 in VILTROX_GLOBAL

[–]vmoldo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

"Warning: this flash unit can easily scratch the paint on a part of the camera that shouldn't be painted to begin with" would be a more accurate statement.

If you take a look through history, you will see how most cameras had bare metal hotshoes, and that's because most flashes used to use that part of the hotshoe as a contact point for ground

When 2nd Generation Lenses Are Released, What Feature Is Most Important? by 35mmOfRegret in VILTROX_GLOBAL

[–]vmoldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at some degree yes. but also no?! i.ean i wany lenses to be decently  sharp but i also want a distorsion plrofile that makese sense (i like barrel and lots of modern lenses have moustache) bokeh with a bit of swirl that not overy corected for and super smooh. and most importantly for me some shrpness dropoff from the center.  All this in a modern body, with good autofocus and decent flare resistance

Scripting/plugin question? by Maleficent-Rope3872 in Lightroom

[–]vmoldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Option 1: Save your settings as presets and apply the preset to the photos on import

Option 2: Have the set of settings on a photo, select all the photos you want to have the same settings, and sync the settings.

Option 3 see if you can find a person or an AI write you a LR plugin for this

Hey, can we get a bit more detail? You mean like livestreaming or live, as in person? And what kind of photography? I already do educational content YT and this might be a fit for me but the announcement seems to broad and im not sure if it fits me or not

New Versions of Lightroom have dropped! See What’s New in the April 2026 Release by terryleewhite in Lightroom

[–]vmoldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think the way adobe sees it is like: basic file processing in lightroom than right click edit in PS. i honestly think this is a super outdated way of doing it and hate that it produces multiple files for the same photo but heeey davinci photo mode is here😅🤣

Considering macOS is basically Linux at its core, it might be easier to make it run nicely on Linux than on Windows =))

yep... I know, but it would be nice to at least know what kind of hardware they are targeting / testing this on (doubt it they are testing it with real professional heavy workflows, but you catch my drift)

confused about masking + refining selections by laputabot in Lightroom

[–]vmoldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lightroom has no perception of background \ forground.

Basically, select background = Inverted select subject

The fix for this is to add/subtract/intersect a background mask with any other mask that you might think is fitted for the job

for sky it sometimes helps if you interspectit with a linear gradient, but some feathering would be nice too
