  • Like others here, I’ll almost always do:

    • Exposure as rendered
    • Denoise (profiled)
    • Haze removal
    • Lens correction

    I’ll frequently also enable Sharpen and either Filmic RGB or Shadows and Highlights, depending on the style I want.

    I’ll sometimes crop the images.

    When I actually want to do manual editing, it’ll mostly be a small tweak in the RGB levels followed by Colour balance RGB module. I’ll also adjust exposure partially, via masks, and similar other tweaks.

    Very rarely ill want to heal something with Retouch.

    When I’m really having fun (and time), I’ll just go tinker with everything else just to see what happens. It’s rare that I have the time, though.






  • I mean, often enough even that phone call won’t help.

    But you’re right, as long as everything is working normally, working on premises slows you down to do maintenance, updates etc etc. Cloud (of all kinds) takes that work away and you can work faster. And in the VC-driven daily and eternal grind, moving faster is the only thing that matters.
