![]() And what needs to be mentioned is that Lightroom CC also received the same Profiles as Lightroom Classic CC. Now earlier I had mentioned that Adobe updated Lightroom CC as well and I am pretty regular in my complete disregard of Lightroom CC but I feel it needed to be mentioned with this post. It can be easy to get confused between a Preset and a Profile but if you think of Profiles as that "base layer" then you can think of Presets as a group of "top layers". Presets can include all sorts of adjustments and slider adjustments can certainly be part of a Preset and you can even include a Profile within a Preset. And that is where they are different from Presets. will effect that base layer but the base layer does not move your adjustment sliders to accomplish it's appearance. All the adjustments you make after selecting your Profile - tone, saturation, etc. Profiles do not have an effect on your adjustment sliders and the best way to think of them, in my opinion at least, is as the base layer of your image. You can only have one Profile active at a time but you can switch Profiles whenever you like - being Lightroom it is completely non-destructive, of course. There is also an Amount slider which allows you to increase or decrease the effect of the Profile. If you double click the profile it will activate that profile for your image, or you could click on the Profile and tap the close button to accomplish the same task. When you do open the Profile Browser you can hover over each profile to see a preview on your active image. Adobe Color is the new default profile and that will load every time you open a newly imported image. You can find them via the Profile Browser that is accessed by clicking on the four squared grid just to the right of your current Profile. There are also profiles meant to match the different modes of your camera - for example if your camera has a "vivid" setting you could load that profile - and also Artistic Profiles and BW Profiles, Vintage Profiles and Modern Profiles. There are the 6 standard Adobe Profiles - Adobe Color, Landscape, Neutral, Standard, Portrait and Vivid plus the Monochrome Profile. Now the profiles get first class treatment right at the top of the Basic Panel and there are many more options. Now to be clear there were Profiles before but they were pretty well hidden in the Camera Calibration Panel. The big takeaway is that there are now A LOT of profiles that you can choose from to give your image just the look you're after. Earlier this week, April 3rd to be exact, Adobe released the 7.3 Update for Lightroom Classic CC as well as an update to Lightroom CC.
