Where are post-crop vignetting controls in ACR 6.7

Post crop vignetting was added into an earlier version of ACR (in CS4), but this function does not appear under Lens Corrections in my version of ACR 6.7. Where are these controls now?

Under fx, at least in 7.1.

PS CS5 Extended - post crop vignette in Camera Raw 6?

The post-crop vignette sliders don't seem to be under Lens Correction in this upgrade - can anyone tell me where they are please? Thank you.

You probably need ACR 6.1. Check the Camera Raw forum.

Can the post crop vignette be changed to the original vignette effect?

I must say I'm surprised and disappointed that the post crop vignette uses a different effect to that of the original lens correction vignette.
I can't figure out why this has been done & to my eyes, it's very inadequate.
Is there any workaround, or can this feature please be changed in a future release?
What makes it worse is that this was one of the reasons I made the upgrade to Lightroom 2.0... But I really can't use this effect as it stands.

The original lens correction vignette functioned like a lens vignette would--by lightening/darkening exposure in the corners of the image.
the present post-crop vignette appears ot be an overlay of either black or white, with variations in opacity, size and feathering. Consequently, it very much has the appearance of a post-processed mask overlay.
The big areas in which I see differences between these effects are 1) in the highlight regions. Whereas the original vignette would restore some of the blown out areas in a highlight, the new post-crop vignette only greys out these areas with a darker or lighter region (no detail), and 2) in areas of color--instead of seing a restoration and accentuation in color (eg. in a slightly blown-out sky or background), the new filter further greys this area with the application of a black/white mask of varying degrees of opacity.
It is my opinion that the original filter had a certain class to it in the way it would replicate lens effects. The new filter looks like a photoshop effect, and in a way, sadly, that I really don't have a great use for.
I hope that clarifies some of the things I've said.
Can we see a restoration of the functionality of the original vignette to the post-crop version in any upgrade to Lightroom 2.0?

Req: Dynamic post-crop vignettes

So after asking around and doing many many reverse-engineering tests, I've come to the conclusion that the post-crop vignette is missing a couple basic functions that would make it a lot more useful.
Here's what led me down this road: I had an image that I had processed several weeks ago which included a PCV. Recently I wanted to print it as a gallery wrap. When the print is wrapped, you lose about one inch from every side to get around the wooden frame. So that means you either just lose part of the image, or you go back and add a margin, so you're only losing something you didn't really want anyway. I was luck in this case because I could recrop the image I had processed to add back some space around the area I wanted. Unfortunately, when you re-crop the PCV relative to the pixels in the image changes.
After all my testing, I realized there was absolutely no way to get the image I started but with a additional inch on all sides.
The issue can be resolved in either, or both, of two ways. The first way would be the simplest for the user. Simply offer a 'lock' option, which when enabled locks the PCV effect relative to the image, and as the user changes the crop, Lr adjusts the values dynamically. The second way would be to allow a more arbitrary range of values for the PCV settings (or more exact value scales). After my testing, I came to understand quite precisely how changes in the amount, midpoint, and feather values affect the effect in relation to the size and proportion of the image. I had charts and tables so I could accurately predict what values would be required to achieve a static effect when the crop dimensions change. That wasn't enough though; because of the limited range of values the PCV tool offers, the values I needed were simply unavailable. The issue is that even when amount/midpoint/feather are set to their most extreme vignetting values, they don't offer a way to affect the entire image.
Take for example this situation:
There's a 1000x1000 pixel image
It has been center-cropped down to 500x500 pixel
The amount = -100, midpoint = 0, feather = 0
I know have a circular mask in the middle of my image whose diameter is just about 73% (about 362px) of the length of the images sides.
If I were to re-crop the image back to 1000x1000, there is no way to achieve that same vignette (a 362px radius circular mask). The values are already maxed out. I realize in this situation there would be a lot of completely dead space, and it would make sense to just crop the image down. But this is pretty simple math that, if the attribute values weren't so limited, would be easy to achieve, and would provide much more continuity within the PCV tool.
I feel like the best solution would be to redetermine the value scales; maybe this can be done behind the scenes to not destroy the integrity of the current-PCV-processed images. The amount value scale is fine as-is. The midpoint value should be reclassified as 'radius' and represent the furthest distance from the center of the image that is unaffected by the vignette. The feather attribute should allow value entry in pixels; if it makes more sense in the Lr ecosystem to keep the default scale to be 0-100, that's fine, that can represent 0%-100% of whatever you want (image dimension, mask radius, etc), but since there's no size attribute to compare the percent too like in the brush tool, there needs to be a more exact method of defining the value. Roundness is the biggest culprit in this whole mess; it's trying to do too much with a single slider. The PCV tool should offer two options, round or square. Round should allow you to define how elliptical the mask is, ranging from perfect circle to maybe a 3:1 ratio of major to minor axes or whatever you want. Square should allow the user to define the radius of the corners of a rectangle with the same ratio as the crop.
The new system, while different, isn't any more complex than the current system, and would allow those who don't need precise control the same WYSIWYG experience, but allow for much more fine-tuned control when required.

Chris,
I confess I did not read every word of this (sorry), still:
- I like your idea of breaking the roundness into the two sliders: "general shape" and "corner shape" or something.
- a work-around to lock vignette: re-export into lightroom - I do this all the time to lock PCV - mostly for applying another PCV over it...
(I realize you don't want to have to do this all the time, still its a possibility for a workaround for now - maybe you already thought of it...)

Clarifying my question from last pm, re: how do I get LR to stop applying post-crop vignette at time of import to all my photos?

I work on a Mac, shoot in raw, and download directly to hard drive from my camera. I then import images into Lightroom using the "copy" function. For some reason, Lightroom is systematically applying a post-crop vignette to my photos, I am unable to turn it off. Happens regardless of lens I shoot with. Can anyone advise how to change this? I have tried re-setting the vignette to zero before importing, but that does nothing. Regards, Barb in Virginia

Go to Preferences and reset your Default Develop Settings if you want to reset for ALL cameras and file types.
If you want to reset the default for a single camera, in Develop you can hold the Alt key and the "reset" button will change to "set default". The following dialog will appear. Click "Restore adobe default settings"
You should then not have vignette being applied.

Lightroom 4 Post-Crop Vignetting.

Hello,
I have lightroom 4 on a Mac.
In Develop mode > Effects > Post-Crop Vignetting the Highlights slider is greyed out.
I have tried different priorities , all positions of the sliders.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello Victoria,
That is the answer, a negative value.
I moved all of the sliders but did not move this one back into the negative.
Thanks for your help

Fixed 5.2rc: ...images processed with PV2003 were adding a post-crop vignette...

From the release notes:
"Catalog containing images processed with PV2003 were adding a post-crop vignette when catalog upgraded to Lightroom 5"
Does that mean all my PV2003 images (10,000+) now have a post-crop vignette included in their edit history? Or some? Or some special combination?
I converted my v4.4 catalogue a couple of days after v5.0 was released, so I really don't want to go back to my old v4.4 catalogue and re-convert...
Any ideas?

The "fix" works as follows:
1. If you use LR5.2 RC to upgrade a catalog containg some PV2003 images, there will be no issue....i.e. you will not see the unexpected "Post Crop Vignette Style: Paint Overlay" entry in the develop History.
2. If you open an LR5 catalog which was created by upgrading from an earlier version using LR5.0, any PV2003 images will STILL show the "Post Crop Vignette Style: Paint Overlay" entry in the develop History, BUT it will no longer have the problem of losing all intervening history steps should you click on a prior history step.
3. Any already-lost history steps caused by the problem in LR5.0 will remain lost.

Where are the A/V controls in version 10.3 on a mac x

I am a new Mac user and I am running the latest operating system. I am starting to use Itunes and need to adjust the playback speed of audio and video files. I was told to use quicktime player and that going to the windows tab to turn on A/V controls but a pick for that does not appear. I wm running ver 10.3 of quicktime or is there another way to adjust playback speeds in Itunes.

There is no A/V controls window in QuickTimve version 10.
There is A/V controls in QuickTime Player 7. Both versions can be used but 7 handles more formats.

Where are the Ken Burns controls?

I've got iPhoto 4.0.3. The iPhoto Help menu tells me to go to View>Thumbnails, but my View menu doesn't have Thumbnails as an option. Nevertheless, I can get a screen full of thumbnails when I click on the "Organise" button at the bottom of the iPhoto pane. The help menu says to select the photo you want (no problem there) and then to select the Ken Burns Effect box ( a screenshot of which is shown), but this box is nowhere to be seen. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Where is this durn Ken Burns thing?
Ken W.

Ken,
iPhoto 5 has features not available in iPhoto 4. If you want to use the Ken Burns effect, use iMovie to make a movie from photos in your iPhoto collection.
I don't know how you got the wrong Help document (maybe a foul up when your machine was built?), and I'm not sure of any way to fix it other than by deleting the errant document and running the iPhoto 4 installer again. You'll need to delete the iPhoto 5 Help document and any iPhoto-related ".pkg" files in the root level "Library >Receipts" folder before you reinstall. Everything else can stay.

Lightroom 5 applying post-crop vignette at import of raw files

I download raw NEF files directly from my Nikon D7000 to hard drive, and then import to lightroom 5 via the import and add functions. I do not have any presets set for apply at time of import.
For some reason lightroom is systematically applying a -35 vignette to all images I import. It does not change with lenses. Can you advise how to de-activate this?
regards
Barb in Virginia

Go to Preferences and reset your Default Develop Settings if you want to reset for ALL cameras and file types.
If you want to reset the default for a single camera, in Develop you can hold the Alt key and the "reset" button will change to "set default". The following dialog will appear. Click "Restore adobe default settings"

In OS 10.5.8 where are the controls or code for...

In OS 10.5.8 where are the controls or code for selecting dragging/moving files and folders copying and pasting kept?
Is it part of one of the system apps?
Mine do not work any fixing tips?

Good call on on throwing away finder plist It worked on my desktop/screen saver problem...But, it didn't fix the dragging and moving items/folders and paste.
My network is still confused too.
I threw out the desktop plist as well still nothing...
I did run the anti-virus Macscan to check just for peace of mind it did find a spyware from CNN...
Thanks for your help at least one thing worked so far.
Any other suggestions, besides reloading OS...?

Where are the Brightness and Levels controls?

It's so simple, but it's late at night (early hours of the morning actually) and I'm stuck!
The most basic of controls . . . . Brightness, Contrast, Levels etc. I just cannot find.
Where are they?
Anyway, I'm off to bed.

Looking back to the old FCP, the Brightness filter was pretty appalling as it really upset the contrast etc. and it required complex fiddling with the other controls to get a semblance of balance back.
Then a year or so ago someone made a new free Brightness plugin that not only adjusted the brightness but automatically compensated the contrast controls so everything looked great.
I can't remember the name of the creator or the plugin.
It might be Luca and this, but I can't be sure.
http://www.videonline.co.uk/Lucas_Image_Adjust.htm
It's a pity that FCP X hasn't got a similar effect.
The following adjustment gave the images a nice lift and kept everything pleasant to view.
Highs +10%, Mids +5% and Shadows +3%
