    Minor point, in either software, I did not see you using Lens Correction? somehow that is always my first step, to use the built-in profile to correct for the profile of the lens... I also like to start with the camera native profile (I shoot with Nikon D850 and Z7, and I like their built-in Portrait profile as a first step).

    @orendo 3 года назад +8

    The main problem with LuminarAI is that it's slow. When processing 61MP compressed RAW files from the A7R IV directly in LuminarAI, the program becomes quite unresponsive. You really do need to export a lower quality file to it from Lightroom.

    • @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll
      @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll 3 года назад +1

      I agree with this, well I dont have a 61mp sensor, but even in my D850 and Z7 45.7MP each adjustment takes 1-3 seconds to take effect which make the whole experience a bit painful.

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  3 года назад +4

      I actually used Luminar AI to edit the photos in my last behind the scenes video of the GFX100S which are huge files - both compressed and uncompressed photos and while it took a little bit longer to open files while using it as a plug in, I was able to edit my photos without it crashing. Just the opening of the file takes a little longer for me, the same as when I import GFX files to Lightroom, but once it's open it applies the effects like A7III files. Does your computer run fine with Lightroom or other photo editing software? I'm just curious because I genuinely like Luminar AI and haven't had the same experiences with it being unresponsive. I think their latest update had some performance/speed improvements too

      @@juliatrotti, don't get me wrong, I think that LuminarAI is a good software; I actually purchased it 3 weeks ago, after trying out the trial and I don't regret it. I just wish that it could handle my RAW files without stalling while I edit them. Lightroom Classic and Photoshop 2021 all run flawlessly on my PC. Hopefully, Skylum can make this good software into a really great one by addressing such issues. Perhaps your experience was better because you used LuminarAI as a plugin and didn't work directly on RAW files. I'll try that method from now on. By the way, I love your channel and your work and find it really inspirational. Thank you, Julia, and greetings from England!

      Yeah I typically use LUTs for video editing. With presets you can adjust all the settings/sliders, but they are software specific. So the Lightroom presets I have only work with Adobe camera raw software. You can also save your own presets in Luminar AI, but you can't use those presets in Lightroom and vice versa. With LUTs I am able to still use my colours in Luminar AI

    • @LuminarGlobal
      @LuminarGlobal 3 года назад

      Hi Raymond. All tools in Luminar AI now have undo command (it was added to Clone and Erase on Windows in 1.3.0). You can also undo steps in the History tab. As for batch processing in the plugin mode, I've added your vote for this feature. For now, I'd suggest adding the photos as a folder to the standalone version of the software and sync adjustments between them: manual.skylum.com/ai/en/topic/syncing-adjustments
      Then, you can export the pictures to the folder added to your Lightroom Catalog. LR will be able to pick up the exported photos automatically.
      Lastly, please drop us a message at skylum.com/support so we could learn more about performance issues on your computer.

      @@juliatrotti But for me its not creative to move just some Sliders and let the Software choose. You dont need any Editing knowledge to get a result and thats for me a problem. Its not about the Photography Art itself, its just to get a Result as fast as possible... Yes, on IG are also People who spend a lot of effort in their pictures but a lot of them are 1-click Preset editing and you see it.... but its just my opinion, i dont want to be negative. Maybe thats just the result because i'm so long into Graphic Design & Editing. I want that freedom to make every step manually, get creative and have full control over the picture without AI

    I'm kind of disappointed in videos like this. You're getting paid to do this. And yet you have multiple videos showing you using photoshop in your everyday editing. Not luminar. I do have luminar ai and recently also started paying for photoshop. I use both together. Ai works as a great plugin for photoshop. Both have positives and negatives. Photoshop unfortunately is the superior product.
    And I need to let people know that you are speeding a lot of things up. The erase feature can be beyond slow. And it can majorly screw up. And when it does you have lots of problems. I figured out a way around its huge issue but it still is a pain.
    I love your stuff but I think you have to be more honest about what you really use on a daily basis. And not try to mislead people this way.

    Let’s be real now. This was just a big ad for Luminar. I clicked for an actually workflow and got a video long ad

    i dont like and i dont know why people try softening the skin. i think every photographer should edit people as they are. maybe a few colors here and there but no cosmetic edits. it looks very, very funny from all the photos online with people with skin like silk
