Last week, I posted some of my Lightroom presets for the camera profiles that you find in the Camera Calibration panel in Lightroom. After I started reading through the questions and comments I realized that a lot of people didn’t know one of the huge benefits of using presets for the camera profiles. See, the presets I gave out, were simply just shortcuts to the settings in the Calibration panel, rather than my own recipe of settings put together (which is what the presets I usually give away are). So I figured I’d do a quick video to show you a couple of ways that having presets for these profiles helps out. I hope this helps. Enjoy!


I love teaching and photography... In that order. I feel that enjoying photography, and photo editing can get WAY too complicated. So my personal mission (and favorite thing to do), is to create education that simplifies the process of taking great photos, and how to edit them to get the results youโve always wanted.
Thanks Matt. Great tips on how to use the camera profile presets. I always thought you’d figured out the adjustments required in the develop module to get the various Nikon presets. I use them nearly all the time on the import dialog.
Really helpful. Thank you.
