Due to this common origin, Lightroom and Camera Raw have evolved as separate products, but they continue to be developed and updated in parallel to retain that consistent editing and rendering capability.īecause of this, the conventional wisdom is that everything in Classic’s Develop module is also in ACR, and everything in ACR is also in the Develop module. As a result, Lightroom Classic’s Develop module shares the same editing and rendering capabilities as the ACR plug-in, but in a different wrapper that includes features and functions for importing, organizing, and output that don’t exist in Camera Raw itself. Lightroom was created as a way to take the powerful editing capabilities in the ACR plug-in and build a more efficient workflow around it, from capture to output, aimed specifically at digital photographers. I’m not here to convince anyone to change the software they are using, but rather to provide a look into what is the same, what is different, and how to decode whether a given Classic resource applies to ACR, and vice versa. That said, there are still people using ACR because that’s what fits their needs. So much so that it is far more common to see articles, videos, and tutorials about Lightroom than about ACR. In the 10+ years since Lightroom’s debut I think it is safe to say that many of those photographers have made the migration over to Lightroom. The only ‘con’ is that you now cannot open a picture directly in photoshop – it will always open in camera raw, but this is not a problem: from camera raw just click on ‘open picture’ to go to photoshop.Before there was Lightroom (Classic), we had Photoshop, Bridge, and the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plug-in that formed the foundation to many photographer’s digital imaging workflow. Now from Bridge when you click on open, or simpler just double click on a picture, it will open in camera raw. (same with TIFFS).Ĭhange this to ‘Automatically open all supported JPEG’s’ (without the ‘with settings’). ‘Automatically open all supported JPEG’s with settings’. Then use CTRL K, which opens the camera raw preferences.Īt the bottom under JPEG and TIFF handling you will find the default setting which says: Open any picture in camera raw – yes you can do this from mini bridge: right click on the picture and click on ‘open in camera raw. I haven’t found an answer either – WAIT – but I have found a way around it. There have been numerous queries about this ‘error’ (when trying to open a picture in camera raw from Bridge), with numerous suggestions, which as far as I am concerned none works.
