Hello,

in lightroom you have the possibility of creating and applying presets on image upon import.

For a while now I was asking myself if it would be possible to apply a preset to different types of images e.g. landscape, portrait etc. which apply some basic settings based on the type of image on import. (Similar to the algorithms my camera uses if I would shoot in jpg).
That would be a good starting point to further process the image, as the raw file looks a bit dull without any editing....

My first question is:
Is it possible to apply to my raw file a preset which reflects or is similar to the one my camera would use to create the jpg file?

Do you use presets based on photo type as described in the first paragraph?

How do they look like for different photo types? Or are they your secret presets ?

In case it is common to use this lightroom feature I think it would be really interesting to share our presets to fine tune the image already on import and get a good starting point for further editing.


Thanks,

cheers
