Chapter 5: Develop Mode
To save the image and continue processing other images:
1. Click Save.
2. Select one of the following:
Save As: Save a version of your developed image with a new name or format and switch to the updated image.
Save a Copy: Save a copy of your developed image with a new name or format, and continue to work on the
original file.
Export: Export one or more copies of your developed image with the option to specify a format and size for each.
Copy to Clipboard: Copy the developed image to the clipboard.
Save a Copy is useful for making multiple versions of an image while continuing to work from the original file
instead of a new processed copy. For example, if you take a RAW image and save a copy of it as a JPG, instead of
switching to this lossy JPG image, you remain on the unprocessed RAW file with the settings still intact.
To discard changes to the image and return to the mode you were in previously:
Click Cancel.
Save is not available for RAW file formats because you cannot directly save changes to a RAW file.
Fixing Lens Distortion
You can correct barrel, pincushion, and fisheye distortion in digital photographs. In barrel distortion the photo appears to bulge
outwards from the center. In pincushion distortion the photo appears to shrink inwards toward the center. In fisheye distortion, the
photo appears to bulge outwards from the center, as if the photo were wrapped around a sphere. Barrel, pincushion, and fisheye
distortion are common in photos that were taken with wide angle or zoom lenses.
You can save your settings as a preset for future use.
To fix lens distortion:
1. In Develop mode, select the Geometry tab.
2. In the Lens Distortion group, adjust the slider to the left for a bulge effect, or adjust the slider to the right to stretch the
edges of the image.
You can right-click a slider to reset to the default value.
Click the Show Grid button to display a grid over your image. This tool is useful when fixing alignment in your images.
When the grid is not activated, it is gray .
Rotating and Straightening
You can straighten a crooked photo in Develop mode by rotating the photo at a custom angle.
You can save your settings as a preset for future use.
