ACR Relative Adjustments

[Andy.Shustykevych]

Hello everyone.

Is there any chance of seeing relative adjustments in ACR? There is a basic implementation of it in Lightroom CC, and would be a very welcome addition to ACR. Let me explain.

For example, I have two RAW images shot with Auto exposure. I adjusted the exposure of the images in ACR to match each other (say, +0.5 and +1), but now I'd like to make both images a bit brighter by the same amount (+0.2). The only way I can do this now is adjust each image separately to maintain their current previously adjusted exposure values. It would be great if I could select two images and add a relative +0.2 amount.

The same refers to most other adjustments.

Thanks for any reply in advance!

That would be a nice feature. Where do you see that in LR? LR and ACR use pretty much the same engine, just the controls are arranged differently.

You can find this in the Library Module in Loupe or Grid View. Here is the screenshot.

That's the new LR CC and not the LR Classic, correct?

That's LR Classic, and it was there even before LR split into CC and Classic.

Okay, found it. I'm not a big LR user. Yes, having that in ACR would be great. I'll have to send a note to the Camera Raw team.
