Adobe Lightroom Vignetting

September 8th, 2009

Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

Why does Lightroom’s Post-Crop Vignette tool have to look crappy compared to the Lens Correction tool. The Post-Crop tool looks like the equivalent of going into Photoshop, painting with black over top of the image, and then varying the opacity. Vignetting by way of the Lens Correction tool in the ‘Vignettes’ panel is much more pleasing in my opinion. Rather than sticking some black over your image, it seems to affect the exposure level instead. This look is more akin to using Levels/Curves in PS, and then masking out the appropriate areas.

Why can’t we have the wonderful look of the Lens Correction tool, with the flexibility of the Post-Crop Vignetting tool?

Okay that’s the end of my rant. Peace!
