Inverting photos in Lightroom

February 28th, 2010

I started to convert some of my old 35mm negatives into digital images. Just as a test I stuck a negative on the window and made a picture of it using my 5D. Then the trouble started, Lightroom does not have a “invert colours” option. Lucky for me I found a website with a handy preset which does the trick. Keep in mind that all your sliders invert as well. This means that if you want to make your picture brighter you should lower the aperture slider.

Optimizing Adobe Lightroom

August 3rd, 2009

Macperformanceguide.com posted a really interesting article about how to optimize your Adobe Lightroom performance. It turns out for example that when exporting 100 images, you can better export 50 images twice since Adobe Lightroom starts to process them in parallel. More tips can be found in the original article.
