If you go to the Camera Calibration panel in Lightroom and look at the <strong>Profile<\/strong> menu you will find a list of your camera&#8217;s available color profiles. The options you see depend on the camera used to take the photo. Black and white profiles are only available for newer cameras.<\/p>\n<p>As many you asked, how do I <strong>change<\/strong> my profile in Lightroom? To <strong>change<\/strong> the profile, make sure that you&#8217;re working in the Develop module. On the right side of Lightroom under the Basic panel, you&#8217;ll see the Profile dropdown. You can choose from a number of profiles built into <strong>Lightroom<\/strong> to change the rendering of your raw image.<strong>Lightroom<\/strong> Classic primarily uses the Adobe RGB <strong>color<\/strong> space to display colors. The Adobe RGB gamut includes most of the colors that digital cameras can capture as well as some printable colors (cyans and blues, in particular) that can&#8217;t be defined using the smaller, web-friendly sRGB color space.<\/p>\n<h2>How do I change my color profile to sRGB?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open your design in Photoshop.<\/li>\n<li>Go to Edit and click Convert to Profile\u2026<\/li>\n<li>Click on the destination space drop down box.<\/li>\n<li>Select the sRGB option.<\/li>\n<li>Click OK.<\/li>\n<li>Save your design.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I switch to developer mode in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Select a photo to edit. Select a photo in the Library module and press D to switch to the Develop module.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I reset Lightroom to default settings?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When starting Lightroom, hold down ALT+SHIFT on Windows or OPT+SHIFT on Mac. Lightroom will start completely reset to default after you confirm that you want to reset preferences.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I turn off quick develop in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Note: Click the triangle button on the right side of any section in the Quick Develop panel to show or hide that section.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What color profile should I use in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>For exporting, the default choice should always be sRGB. This is the most widely used and safest choice, especially if the photos are going to be only used digitally (web pages, social media etc.).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where are lightroom classic profiles?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Lightroom displays your favorite profiles at the top of the Profile Browser. They also appear in the Profile menu in the Basic panel. This is a shortcut that means you don&#8217;t have to open the Profile Browser to access your favorite profiles. Tip: The Adobe profiles are marked as favorites by default.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where are camera profiles stored in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>They are in C:Users[name]AppDataRoamingAdobeCameraRawCameraProfiles.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is the difference between presets and profiles in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Presets are adjustments to the editing tools available in Lightroom, while Profiles contain adjustments to features that you could not otherwise adjust in Lightroom, as they are beyond Lightroom&#8217;s capabilities. This can include textures or very specific color grading that you&#8217;d normally see in films.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I add profiles to Lightroom Classic?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>From the menu bar, choose File > Import Profiles &#038; Presets.<\/li>\n<li>In the Import dialog that appears, browse to the required path and select profiles or presets that you want to import.<\/li>\n<li>Click Import.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is treatment and profile in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r3aKrscoUx0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Which profile should I use in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>So, remember, when you start processing a file in Lightroom, to go to the Camera Calibration panel and set the Profile first. This affects contrast as well as color, so selecting the color profile should take place before you start work in the Basic panel.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Should I shoot sRGB or Adobe RGB?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Adobe RGB is irrelevant for real photography. sRGB gives better (more consistent) results and the same, or brighter, colors. Using Adobe RGB is one of the leading causes of colors not matching between monitor and print. sRGB is the world&#8217;s default color space.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why do my pictures look different in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Likely your monitor is being automatically calibrated to the aRGB color space. Non properly color aware programs are ignoring the actual color space of your monitor and trying to display sRGB colors in the aRGB color space, resulting in some over saturated colors.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I change my color profile?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open Start.<\/li>\n<li>Search for Color Management and click the top result to open the experience.<\/li>\n<li>Click the Devices tab.<\/li>\n<li>Use the &#8220;Device&#8221; drop-down menu and select the monitor that you want to set a new color profile.  <\/li>\n<li>Check the Use my settings for this device option.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is RGB and sRGB the same?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>SRGB and Adobe RGB include an equal amount of colors, but the range of sRGB is narrower. Adobe RGB is said to have a 35% wider gamut of color than sRGB. Also, professional printers have preferences as to which color spaces they require.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Find the &#8216;File Settings&#8217; section and open the &#8216;Color Space&#8217; options, from the drop-down menu that appears, then select the color profile you need.
