Lightroom is packed with hidden features and tricks that can help you improve images quickly and make your workflow much more efficient, if you know how to use them properly. This handy video shows you 5 hidden features and tricks you may not have known existed.


This useful video comes from Teppo Haapoja and shows you five tricks to improve your images and make your workflow a little faster in Lightroom.

One tip that is often used is the radial filter. You can add a little vignette to almost all your images to draw attention to the subject, but the problem when you want to apply this in the Effects tab is that the vignette is always in the centre.

On the other hand, it is quite rare for a subject to be positioned exactly in the centre of a shot. By using the radial filter, you can place the vignette wherever you want and control its size and intensity too.

It is a good way to guide your viewer's eye. Just make sure you soften the adjustment so that it blends seamlessly into the rest of the photo.
