Question

Converting raw image to jpeg

I took several portraits in raw and I edited them in Lightroom but when I go to export and change it to a jpeg and open the photos after being exported they are slightly more blurry than when I look at them in Lightroom and I am editing on iPad.

So this is Lightroom on iPad rather than Classic?

Yes Lightroom on iPad. I just want to make sure I'm exporting correctly because I'm not used to shooting in raw.

There is no option when you export that will cause blurriness. If you choose an image size that is too small, the image can appear pixelated.

 

From now on, place your questions about Lightroom on iPad (or any mobile device) in the Lightroom (ecosystem) forum, and not here in the Lightroom Classic forum, as you are not using Lightroom Classic.

The JPG is blurry at what magnification? What happens if you look at the photo(s) at 1:1 magnification (or zoom = 100%, same thing)? At 1:1 magnification, the JPG picture should be as sharp as the raw original.

 

Are you doing any re-sizing when you export from Lightroom Classic?

Sorry kinda new to all this how do I know what magnification I am looking at them in when I open the photo after it is saved to my files? I think it was set on 100% image quality and dimension is set to largest available dimensions in Lightroom for exporting
