Lightroom Quick Tip – Slider Tips & Tricks

This quick video tip by photographer Anthony Morganti will show you how to better control the sliders in Adobe Lightroom.

There are a few simple ways of controlling sliders in Lightroom. you can use the mouse to move the slider, you can choose a slider and write down a precise value or you can use the up and down arrows. But what if you want to be more precise? you can hold the shift while you move the slider with your mouse. You can also use the ALT and the up/down to do the same. If you want larger movements – use the SHIFT and the up/down keys.

By the way, these tricks only partially works in Photoshop (Camera RAW) from some reason.
