#Topaz clarity or detail for animals and birds upgrade#

All I can say is, you are not alone!! I purchased the Adjustment Pro Pack when TS first came out only because I love Topazlabs and want to support them for their customer-friendly upgrade policy. Some of the presets that are most popular were created by community members.Įlsewhere in this thread you expressed confusion over some adjustments (like Texture). As far as I have been able to determine, the presets are being displayed in the order of popularity. If you click on the thumbnail of the preset, it will show you the author.

So if you want to see these presets I guess you have to go for the new integrated version of these plugins. I notice that the new Detail and Clarity TS interface displays a lot of community-created presets (like the one you used on the cathedral image that you posted). However, if you have already created a lot of presets in one of the old plugins, you may want to keep using that plugin rather than re-create the presets in the upgraded version as long as the old plugin is still working well for you. Paul’s Cathedral in London (no interior photography permitted, so of course I have no idea how this got into my camera,… ), modified with a default preset in the new Detail-in-Studio called “fleblanc Punch and Smudge” (what’s “fleblanc”?) This is the interior of the Great Dome of St. I’m definitely along for the ride (now that I’ve got a better sense of the destination).Īs long as I’m at it, here’s an image that I came up with while checking out this functionality. This will be an extraordinary amount of processing power to have in one application. So is that how it will work going forward? As Topaz adds components to Studio, if I already own 'em they’ll just show up in the program, and eventually I won’t need the plugins at all?

Well, sure enough… I opened Studio this morning and there it was, along with two other programs that I previously own, Clarity and Impression. I wondered if Detail would just show up in Studio. I already own Detail as a stand-alone / Studio plugin. Yesterday I got an email informing me that Topaz Detail is now available in Studio. I just want to verify that Studio is working for me as expected. Hopefully somebody sees this…it’s a continuation of this earlier discussion so I’ll put it here rather than starting a new topic: I obviously have a LOT to learn about how all this works, but now that I (finally) see how the pieces fit together it’s beginning to make a little more sense. Is it right to surmise that I could do all of that within Studio, in a single layer (assuming that’s what I wanted to do?) First a layer for Adjust, then a layer for Detail, then a layer for Clarity, etc. My work flow has been to open the image in Photoshop, and then stack layers with the different Topaz alterations. I typically process an image with Detail, Adjustment, and Clarity. Already, I prefer seeing just “Studio” in my Lightroom edit menu, instead of that long laundry list of edit options that the Legacy stuff put in. That seems like a ideal situation, much cleaner and simpler than the prior arrangement. So let me ask this question: is Studio intended as a (ultimately) a substitute for the “Legacy” stuff? Assuming I bought the whole “Pro” pack, would I then be able to do everything within the one program that I used to do with the 14 modules? So I think I am finally up to speed on how al this dovetails together.

Per last night’s last two msgs, I started downloading and installing the “Topaz Legacy Modules” (well, that’s what I’m gonna call 'em…) and now, yes, I have a “Plugins” item in my Studio menu. My thanks to Eleanore and Don for holding my hand through all this.
