P: Customizable Auto Settings

As far as I know, there is currently no option in Lightroom Classic to combine automatic editing with custom adjustments. I would love to see a feature that allows users to define manual adjustments that are applied on top of the automatic edits.

These additional adjustments could include:

  • Exposure: Brightening all photos by +0.3 stops after the automatic adjustments.
  • White Balance: Increasing the white balance for all photos by +100 points.
  • Highlights: Boosting the highlights for all photos by +10 points.

The important part is that the automatic editing remains the foundation, while the user-defined values act as additional adjustments, allowing for greater flexibility. This would make it much easier to adapt the auto adjustments to match a specific style or project vision without needing to fine-tune each image manually.

I believe this feature would greatly enhance the workflow for many photographers and content creators.

You could consider Jeffrey’s “Bag-o-Goodies” Lightroom Plugin, specifically the Personalized Auto Tone within that plugin.

This sounds like using the existing Quick Develop settings in the Library module after applying [Auto].
