Answers to common questions about Lightroom and Photoshop in this episode of TheFIX
There are two exciting new developments in this episode of TheFIX. We're thrilled to have photographer and author Seán Duggan join Jan Kabili as guest co-host of TheFIX. You'll be seeing a lot of Seán in the weeks ahead. In this episode we're also trying out a new format you'll see on TheFIX from time to time. We call this new format Photo SOS. It's a question and answer session in which Seán and Jan answer photographers' common questions about Lightroom, Photoshop, and post-processing.
If there's a post-processing question that's been nagging at you, add your question to the comments below. We'll choose the best questions to answer in a future Photo SOS episode of TheFIX, and of course we'll mention you on the podcast. And let us know in the comments whether or not you like this Photo SOS format, so we know whether to bring you more episodes like this one in addition to our traditional format.
In this episode Seán + Jan tackle questions about which program to use when for photo-editing; whether it's a good idea to organize your existing photos before importing them into Lightroom; the advantages of using adjustment layers over direct adjustments in Photoshop; the three formats that retain layers when you save in Photoshop; whether or not to copy the Background layer in Photoshop; locking the position of a layer during Photoshop retouching; and more.
