P: Polychromatic Film Grain and Halation

[nickvera]

I've been using Lightroom for 10 years now and I still love the program. I don't do many VFX tweaks and barely use photoshop for event photos. But I would love if Adobe can allow you to choose and adjust polychromatic film grain, not just monochromatic. Film doesn't have monochromatic grain unless it's B&W. Also would love a Halation effect. Something that you can adjust color, brightness, bloom, softness, etc. Does anyone else want this?

Hello,

Ive been experimenting with different external plugins to help get me closer to a certain look for my images.

Dehancer has a couple unique things that I think would be great to have in Lightroom. Specifically, the Halation and Bloom functions. 

   

They also have more grainular adjustments (pun intended) for their Film Grain tool which I thought was awesome.

Hi,

Can you show us some samples of the effects you acheived using these features? 

Thanks,

Michelle

Would absolutely love to see Adobe implement some form of halation into lightroom. I'll probalby eventually end up getting Dehancer but I really think it should be built in. I shouldn't have to pay $200 on top of a subscription I've been paying for years to do a basic thing that can enhance the mood of a photograph. 

Dust and scratches would be a really nice thing to see as some form of slider or generator element. 

Thanks.

I would love an upgraded grain editing system as well! that would be a gamechanger

Dropping in to say, YES, I would love to see these tools inside the Lightroom Classic app

Hi, First of all, Thank you guys for your hard work in introducing new features to us, I loved every one of them. So I'm learning new editing styles with Lightroom and I like my photographs to have a cinematic look and I feel like some features like halation or bloom features are missing to give my photographs a One hundred percent cinematic sensation. So I would like you to add an FX tab and include halation and bloom features. Thank you and Good luck for your future Projects.

And I wish it was in the Lightroom ecosystem (cloud based) because I also edit on my phone.

Well, i have to say that, even if i"m using lightroom all the time, that is something i deeply miss aswell! 

Im always dropping photos in davinci resolve to add real vibes to my photos and it would be amazing to be able to do so without lossing so much time ....

" Does anyone else want this?"

Not me - I'm utterly baffled by the appeal of adding worse image quality to a picture: at best it's a gimmick, at worst it's a feeble attempt to hide a mediocre image behind a "look".

[nickvera]

Well, some clients want the "film look" sooo just trying to provide them what they want, without having to use film which I feel is a gimmick. (Having shot film for over a decade.) You know, you also don't have to use the feature. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hello! 
it would be great to add a feature that would allow users add a halation for those who make film-like edits. 
I am sure a lot of people would be very happy to see such a feature in lightroom! 
Thanks

It's a way to add naturalness and get rid of the over sharpened digital look.

Then why are you oversharpening in the first place? Two wrongs do not make one right.
