D300 Lightroom Preset

After processing several shoots with the D300 I decided that our normal Lightroom import needed some tweeking because the D300 images are brighter than our other Nikon and Cannon camera's (see the blog entry below).

I updated our default lightroom preset import and thought I'd offer it to you for free to play around with and see what you think. This preset creates some slight vignetteing, portrait level sharpening, contrast, exposure and brightness adjustments and a small amount of saturation.

You can download The D300 Preset by clicking this link.

The install instructions are simple. Just go to your preset folder and drop the file in the user presets folder and restart lightroom.

If you are on a PC the folder path is:
C:\Documents and Settings\~Your User Name Here~\Application Data\Adobe\Lightroom\Develop Presets\

If you are on a Mac the folder path is:

~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Develop Presets

Let me know how this works for you!

If you right-click in the user presets panel and select import you can import the preset without needing to restart.
