Lightroom classic default values

Hi everyone, 

my Lightroom Classic is opening up all my NEF files ,in the develop module, with +0,33 exposure, -21 lights and +10 shadows. Allways shows these same values that I have to put to zero when I start to develop any photo.

 

I've tried to change preferences values but it´s imposile, always my LRC starts the develop module with these 3 deafult values instead of zero.

 

Anyone who notices same problem?

 

Thanks

 

Arturo

I'm guessing that you have a Nikon Z camera, which writes camera settings to the NEF files in a format (XMP) that LrC understands and honors.

To stop this from happening, you can either set all camera settings to zero / neutral, or use Adobe Default under Preferences > Presets > Raw defaults. You can also create your own presets to be used for a particular camera.

Please check if you have assign any preset(s) during the import.

See here: How to specify import options in Lightroom Classic (adobe.com)

 

Another try is to reset the preferences of Lightroom Classic:

It's recommended to backup your preferences before you reset the preferences to the default settings:
