Photoshop displays the uncompressed file size, based on pixel dimensions, bit depth, and number of channels. If this is a format that uses compression, the file size on disk will be smaller. 10 MB vs. 1.5 MB suggests that you are saving a jpg. You may find this article useful: File formats ... View more

Your color settings are fine. But you will of course have to re-edit your images after decreasing monitor brightness. They will now be too dark, and you have to brighten them. Instead of using Auto color and levels, I suggest using adjustment layers, or use the Camera raw filter on a copy of the background layer as a smart object – especially if you have scanned in 8-bit, and also if your scans are jpgs.   The jpg format is not intended for editing – it's a final format. Every time you save the image, the quality will be reduced because of the aggressive and destructive compression. If you do lots of edits and saves on a jpg, it will begin to disintegrate, and you may end up with unacceptable quality. For best results, scan 16-bit tiffs. When you have finished editing, convert a copy of the file to 8-bit for printing. ... View more

If you get a dialog about the embedded profile not matching the working space when opening an image, choose the embedded profile. The profile doesn't have to be the same as the working space, which is a fallback if the image is untagged (does not have an embedded profile). To stop this dialog from appearing, go to Edit > Color settings, and set Color management policies up like in the screenshot below, which is from CS6. Make sure that Ask when opening is unchecked for Profile mismatches.     The recommended procedure for printing is to let Photoshop manage colors, which requires color management in the printer driver to be turned off. Everything seems to be set up correctly in your screenshot, but it seems that you have converted the image to Epson sRGB. There is no need to do this, just leave the image in whatever color space it had initially. Also make sure that you're using the recommended (by Ilford) paper setting in the printer driver, and that you are using the correct printing profile for the paper/printer combination you're using.   If printed colors are correct, but the print is too dark, your monitor is most likely too bright. Adjust the brightness to match the print. ... View more

Without seeing screenshots and having no information about your friend's computer and phone/other devices, hard to tell. Most phones do not use color management, and can not be expected to display correct colors. iPhones are supposed to be color managed, but I have no experience with them.   But the first thing I would advise your friend to do is to calibrate her monitor. I get the impression that this is a Windows laptop, which usually comes with a monitor profile created by the manufacturer. These profiles are very often defective out of the box, and might also be installed by a Windows update. Dell and Asus (and others) are notorious for delivering bad profiles. To determine if the monitor profile is the culprit, see this post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/i-cannot-see-thumbnails-and-images/m-p/15298760#M403136   we have tried exporting them in both ProPhoto RGB and sRGB IEC61966-2.1. But nothing is making a difference.  If you view a ProPhoto image in an application without color management, it will usually display dark, desaturated, and with a greenish cast. sRGB is the safe choice. ...

The D850 requires Lightroom 6.13 or later, so if you have version 6.0, it wont work.

The preview cache (Library previews folder) has to be in the same folder as the catalog. If it was accidentally moved to a different location, LrC would recreate it. I suspect that your issue is caused  by a corrupted preview cache, try deleting it. Close LrC, then use the File Explorer to go to the folder that contains your catalog. Delete the folder whose name ends with Previews.lrdata. Do not delete anything else. The previews will be recreated as you browse folders in Library.   ... View more

CPU is Intel(R) UHD Graphics 770 Actually that is the integrated video controll within your CPU.  Graphics card is NVDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti And from your GPU, I assume this is a desktop computer or perhaps a workstation. As such, the integrated video controller probably has no influence into your LrC. Had this been a laptop, perhaps a conflict could occur, and perhaps deactivating the integrated video controller driver would help, but that is rare. By @GoldingD   I had this happen on a new desktop computer, and disabling the integrated GPU fixed it.   @jasonw2420467  Open the Windows Device manager, right click the UHD Graphics and choose Disable device. Relaunch LrC if it's running. Does that fix the issue?   ... View more

It slipped my mind that DeNoise in LrC now supports non-raw (linear) DNG files. Not all scanner software can create DNG files, but the professional version of VueScan, which supports the vast majority of scanners, can do it. But the DNG file will be a raw scan of the original, so there will be no conversion to positive when scanning negatives. ... View more

My suggested workflow is this, with LrC as the main editor.   First of all, open the scan in PS, remove dust and scratches and crop (if necessary). If this is a scan of a black & white negative, invert it to positive before retouching and cropping. If it's a scan of a color negative that you plan to convert with the Negative Lab Pro plugin for LrC, do retouching later, the orange mask makes it very difficult. Save and close the file, then import it in LrC and edit to your liking. Do not apply any sharpening. For noise reduction, press Control + E (edit in Photoshop) and choose Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments. If you choose Edit Original, your LrC edits will not be visible in PS. You really want to see them, because some edits, like Clarity and Dehaze will enhance noise. In PS, create a copy of the background layer (name it Noise reduction), then run Topaz Denoise on the new layer. Use a little stronger noise reduction than what you think is required, then reduce the layer opacity to fine tune. If you want to sharpen the image, create a copy of the Noise reduction layer, name it Sharpening, and run Topaz sharpening on it. Again, oversharpen a bit, and reduce the layer opacity afterwards. Remember to view the image at 100% when doing noise reduction and sharpening. When you save and close the file, it will automatically appear in LrC. The advantage of doing noise reduction and sharpening on layers is that you can always go back and change the opacity of the layers to reduce or increase the effect, and also use a layer mask. You can of course use the Topaz plugins from LrC, but you will not be able to do any fine tuning afterwards. ... View more

1) Denoise only works with raw files, at least for the time being. You can use manual noise reduction in LrC (Luminance) or the Reduce noise filter in Photoshop. Topaz Denoise will give you better results than either.   2) Do noise reduction before any sharpening. Topaz Denoise (standalone, not Photo AI) also has options for sharpening.   3) 35mm scans tend to not respond well to sharpening, in my experience it very often it makes them look worse. So sharpen conservatively, if at all. I would not use any sharpening at all in LrC, possibly after noise reduction, and preferably using Topaz Sharpen AI or Photo AI. And I would not send a jpg to Photoshop or Topaz for further editing, use Edit in from LrC. Make sure to work with tiffs all the way. Jpg is a final format, and not meant to be edited.   4) I agree with @KR Seals in that Negative Lab Pro does an excellent job of converting color negatives to positive. Version 3.1 (currently in beta) is also supposed to do a very good job with restoring colors from faded and miscolored slides. Some other advice – Always scan in 16-bit (48-bit color) Rather than using Edit in Topaz from LrC, use edit in Photoshop instead, and use the Topaz plugin in PS. Then do noise reduction and sharpening on copies of the Background layer. This will allow you to overdo the noise reduction and sharpening a bit, and you can fine tune the effect by reducing the opacity on the layers. Always view the image at 100% when doing noise reduction and sharpening Retouching (removing dust and scratches) is best done in Photoshop. It is quite awkward to do in LrC, and it will slow down to a crawl after a while. I always open scans in PS before importing to LrC for retouching and cropping. (the latter is almost impossible to do accurately in LrC) ... View more

The noise reduction and sharpening are settings from the camera. Digital cameras have always written camera settings to raw files, using proprietary code that only the camera manufacturers' own raw converters could understand – like Nikon's NX Studio. LrC does not understand this code and ignores it. The Nikon Z cameras were the first to write camera settings in XMP, which LrC understands and honors.   You can stop this from happening by going to Edit > Preferences > Presets, and set the Raw default for the Z9 to Adobe Default. This will use Adobe's default sharpening, and no other sliders will be touched. You can also create your own Develop preset with settings of your choice, and have it applied on import. See https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/raw-defaults.html   Another approach is to zero out / neutralize all settings in the camera (you might have to create a custom Picture style), and set the Raw default in LrC to Camera settings. ...

The Z9 should produce files with excellent quality. I have the Z7 which I'm very pleased with, and the Z9 should perform even better.   Would you mind sharing some sample raw files, so we could examine them?
