Adobe Lightroom 3 - The Missing FAQ Can I select a color tint from the photo itself? To select a color tint from the photo, �rst click on the Color icon to bring up the Color Picker. Click in the Color Picker and while holding the mouse button down, drag the cursor onto the photo itself. As you drag across the photo, Color Picker will update live to re�ect the color beneath your cursor. When you release the mouse button, the color under the cursor will be selected in the Color Picker. To �nd a complimentary color to remove a tint, select the color as above, but then click in the Hue �eld in the Color Picker and type a value 180 degrees from the current value, keeping within the limits of 360 degrees. For example, if the current value is 30, adding 180 will make it 210, but if the current value is 330, you would have to remove 180 to make it 150.

What happens if I’m still using an older version of ACR and Photoshop? If you’re using a mismatched version of ACR, it may not understand all of Lightroom 3’s new settings, and therefore the rendering may be di�erent. Besides the new camera support, there are a few other changes involved, depending on the version number. In recent years, there have been changes to the demosaic, new sliders added such as Grain, existing sliders redesigned resulting in the introduction of Process Versions, and now the new lens corrections too. The demosaic, in basic terms, is the initial translation of the raw data into an image, which applies to all of the photos regardless of your Process Version setting. ACR 5.6 and earlier use an older demosaic, whereas Lightroom 3 and ACR 5.7 and higher all use the new demosaic. The visible di�erence is an increased amount of detail in the newer demosaic, which can a�ect the amount of sharpening and noise reduction you choose to apply. If you open a Lightroom 3 photo into a version of ACR with the old demosaic (5.6 or earlier), for example, opening a photo directly into CS3 with ACR 4.6, then it will appear softer and less detailed than Lightroom 3, even if you’ve used sliders that it understands. There are also new sliders which older ACR versions may not understand, for example, Grain and the post-crop vignette Highlight Priority and Color Priority options, are understood by 5.7 but no earlier. The original post-crop vignette, local adjustments, and camera pro�les are understood by 4.6 but no earlier. Further down the line are the processing algorithms, including Fill Light, Noise Reduction and Sharpening, which have changed so signi�cantly this time that they now come in 2 di�erent versions – Process Versions 2003 and 2010, more often shortened to PV2003 and PV2010. We discussed those in more detail in the Develop chapter. And of course, last but not least, there are the new lens corrections which require ACR 6.1 or later.
