How to use Smart Presets and Quick Edit
DISCOVER THE INTELLIGENT TOOLS IN RADIANT PHOTO
Import your image
When the image opens, the software will select the relevant preset. You can choose from Radiant Photo Subtle, for edited images, or Pro for unedited images. Automatic adjustments will be applied, and you can choose to use this as a result or apply your own manual adjustments afterwards.
Make adjustments
This image was reset to the recommended settings; then Light Diffusion was increased to soften the light in the image, while Depth was increased to boost clarity intelligently in Contrast mode. Strength and Color were left at the default levels; Strength will control the overall strength of the adjustments and Color controls vibrancy and tint correction.
Save your images
Images can be saved in JPEG, TIFF or PNG formats, with a file extension to avoid overwriting the original image. When you edit images from Photoshop using the Radiant Photo filter, you’re taken back to Photoshop afterwards; with Lightroom, you can save the Radiant Photo edited images back into your Lightroom Catalog.
Try a preset
There are 40 useful presets below the smart presets that can be applied to your shots. Simply click on the desired preset and the settings will be automatically applied to the Smart Editing controls. To reset the image to the original recommended settings, click the Reset icon above the Smart Editing controls.
Boost vibrancy
Not all images require a saturation boost, but if you would like more saturated colours in your landscapes, for instance, the Vibrancy slider allows you to do just that. For this image, Vibrancy was increased to 10. This is a slider where lower values produce the most realistic results, while other sliders can be increased a lot more.
