Sharpening in Lightroom

Welcome to your FREE Lightroom Classic lesson on sharpening!

Image sharpening is probably the most important step of processing your raw files. It has the power to crisp up the detail and give your image excellent texture and interest.

You see, raw files are naturally a bit soft in detail…

No matter how perfectly you capture your image or how sharp your glass is, the “picture-taking” process that your camera goes through will blur the detail just a bit.

This is why Lightroom will automatically add a small, default amount of image sharpening to your photo a soon as you import them.

However, there’s a fine line between a perfectly sharpened image and one that seems “crunchy” and overly processed…

So it’s imperative that you know how to customize your sharpening to compliment your image by learning the tools of the sharpening panel.

Here’s what we’ll discuss in the following lesson:

The causes of soft detail and tips on how to capture the sharpest image in the field.
The step-by-step workflow for sharpening and how to tell when you’ve added enough.
The balance between noise removal and sharpening, and what is an acceptable level of detail.
The difference between sharpening, clarity, and texture…and how to use these adjustments cohesively.
How to use subtraction to sharpen a focal point by softening the detail surrounding it.
