Or if you have the Windows Hotkey running (new in v1.2), use the hotkey combo for the nationality you have selected in your Lightroom language preferences:īefore you begin the conversion process, you have a few options that can help shape your final conversion.
On windows, go to File -> Plug-in Extras -> Negative Lab Pro to open. Or by going to File -> Plug-in Extras -> Negative Lab Pro. On mac, you can open Negative Lab Pro by hitting the CTRL + N shortcut key. Once your negatives are prepared, select the negative (or group of negative) you want to convert, and open Negative Lab Pro. If you have scanned multiple films stocks, be sure to sample the film mask borders separately for each film stock. You can speed up the pre-conversion process a bit by using Lightroom’s internal “sync” feature to sync the white-balance and crop settings across the negatives, assuming that they are the same film stock. Reopen Negative Lab Pro, set "border buffer" to 0, and retry the conversion. Then change your crop to inlude a small amount amount of border. If your conversion looks significantly off, it's easy to try it another way (since everything here is non-destructive). If your shot was taken at box speed, or if the scene does not have anything in it that is true black, you will get more accurate colors in your shadows by including a small amount of the film border during conversion. In a few circumstances, you may get more accurate results by including some film border. If necessary, adjust your crop or border buffer so any non-film elements are excluded from the analysis. Then continue with the new TIF it creates.ĭo NOT white balance in LR. If your scan is gamma 1.0, first run the TIF SCAN PREP utility (File > Plugin-Extras > TIF Scan Prep). If your scan is at gamma 1.8 or gamma 2.2 (recommended), skip to step 2. Use the white balance selector in LR to sample the film border (or ‘Auto WB’ if no film border visible or LR won’t allow you to sample the border). If you get an error, make sure all the profiles are installed from the installation, restart Lightroom, and try again.
#Colors pro run update
If you don’t see it available, you’ll need to run ‘File > Plugin-Extras > Update Vuescan/Silverfast DNGs.’ (You can run this on multiple DNGs files at once.) Afterwards, the profile should show “Negative Lab v2.1”.
If necessary, crop your negative to exclude any non-film elements (you can re-crop after conversion, or in most cases, you can just use “border buffer”).īefore converting, ensure that the ‘Negative Lab v2.1’ raw profile is available. If no film border is available, or if Lightroom says that it is too bright, use ‘Auto WB’ setting in Lightroom. The exact steps will be a bit different depending on the type of scan you have.īe sure to follow the steps for your scanning method.īefore converting, use the white balance selector in LR to sample off the film border (you can do this once per roll and sync across photos). It seems like Premiere is now letting the monitor handle the color properly, but everywhere else on my computer, including playing a video in Quicktime, is undersaturated.Once your negative scans are inside Lightroom, there are a few simple steps we need to do to prepare them for conversion before we open Negative Lab Pro. unsaturated and darker than on any machine I remember using. The OS, webpages in Chrome, system icons, everything. Is there something I need to change in my system preferences? It looks like everything on my computer - except what I'm seeing in the Program monitor in Premiere - is much less saturated than it should be. But If I bring the QT file back into Premiere and view it in the Source Monitor, it matches what I see in the sequence in the Program Monitor. It is properly saturated in Premiere, and undersaturated in QT player. Video inside of Premiere looks normal.īut the mismatch is still present when I export out of premiere and view the QT file in Quicktime Player. Which immediately made everything much less saturated. Yeah seems like a great monitor, once I can get it working!
