First HG Import to LR is way overexposed...is this normal? - gerardjuarez - 2014-01-21
Hi Gunther et al -
I'm not sure if this is a newbie question, a LRTimelapse/LR 5.3 issue or all of the above but after using the HG workflow and importing to LR for the first time all of my RAWs are several stops overexposed. I manually go back to LRTimelapse and adjust the 'offset' and it seems fine (after I reload the metadata in LR) but I'm wondering why this is the case. Initially I thought LR was applying an auto preset but I selected 'Zeroed' on import.
Thanks for any clarification.
G.

Hi, LRTimelapse on the HG-workflow only applies a rough first leveling - this might be way off the intended result, that's normal. After that you have to check the keyframes and shift/rotate the curve. Like I explained it in the HG-Tutorial: http://lrtimelapse.com/tutorial

Thanks Gunther - that makes sense.
Cheers!
