Lightroom Quick Tips - Episode 60: Profile Basics

This is the 60th episode of Lightroom Quick Tips where I give a single, quick Lightroom tip.

In this episode I give you some tips on the profiles that are found under the camera calibration tab.

Anthony: I find every one of your videos helpful/useful, but this one was extra useful for some editing I'm doing presently. Thanks!

Thanks Anthony, all your tips and videos are great and easy to follow. One question on this one - where in your workflow would you typically apply a different camera calibration?

Thanks again for the very educational video Anthony. They really help me to work more efficiënt and effective with Lightroom.

Thank you very much for your time and effort. I already knew all this but still...it was a good reminder.

Anthony, I'm using a Nikon D500 and usually use Camera Standard profile and have recently been going with Camera Portrait. You showed the Fuji film simulations as another example of camera profiles. Is there any way to get the Fuji profiles and create a Preset to apply to Nikon NEF images? Thanks for the informative and well produced turorials.

Great LR tips. I do have a question about getting my pics ready for print. Seems like when I crop them in LR or anywhere else for that matter, and then try to upload them to a printing site, they seem to get chopped off. Can you provide a quick tip of cropping for print when uploading to a print site?

Thanks Anthony - one question, how is the profile panel zoomed in, can that be done in normal use of LR... Useful tutorial...

Thanks Anthony, another great video. I shoot RAW, but why would I have Lightroom default to Adobe Standard when i shoot in Sony Standard? Is there a benefit?

I'm puzzled Anthony. In my Calibration tab, I don't show the Profile dropdown. I'm using Lightroom Classic CC and my camera is a Nikon D800E. What's up?

[donstefanosgr]

For Lightroom Classic CC users profile is in the basic tab. So dont be upset if you dont find it in camera calibration tab.

Pictures made with my Sony Alpha33 shows only adobe standard while pictures made with my Nikon D3100 has 5 extra profiles. So I understand it's a firmware issue.

For Fuji LR is not a good post editor, you are better of with Iridient.
