Similarly, if I set the Camera to Monochrome with Yellow Filter, what should be the equivalent setting (on a standard preset) within LR2 to reproduce the same image one sees in DPP. Thanks P.S.: I realize that the stock response to the above query has been "why do B&W in the Camera when you can do it inside LR2" :) My response to that is if I had spent time in the field setting up a picture style and like the result, why waste more time on it within LR2. I realize LR2 does not read all of CANON's RAW data, hence was wondering if anyone had come up with standard presets for CANON B&W, SEPIA etc...

Love your work and really appreciate your presets. I've used alot of them in my work. I have a question. Do you know of a way to password protect a lightroom catalog? What I'd like is when I open LR and select a catalog, a dialogue box with a password would come up to get into it. Any ideas or suggestions? Jim Hey Matt!

When will LR be able to use downloaded printer files from various printers, so that the output is calibrated to certain printers? It works if we have the printer physically attached to our machine - but there's no way to export JPEGS (for example) that are already calibrated to printer profiles? Any help is appreciated. Bill Matt,

It may be less confusing if they download the 30 day trail of Lightroom 2 and use it to learn Lightroom 2 with the videos. The install would be to a separate directory and they could create a separate catalog. Steve Matt,

My pc woudl not play it, but I found that if you save it and change the name to ".mp4" any player (WMP, Winamp,etc)takes them perfectly... you can also just save the ".m4v" and go "Open With" your favourite player and, after complaining, it will open with no problem. I guess the format is the same. Hope it helps. ET Hi,

I'm thinking here for instance about soft proofing, if it's not applied there then I'll have to go back to LR for printing which would make my soft proofing pretty impredictable... Hi Matt

I downloaded the Photomatix Pro trial and I am deciding on whether to buy the full standalone version or just the plug-in. The problem I am having is when I send images from "merge to HDR" from Lightroom, Bridge, or PhotoshopCS3, the images seem to load but right after 'align images" all the images will disappear from the screen and the layers panel and I have just a blank photoshop screen. I been to the Adobe Forums and other people have had this issue, but do not say how to fix it. My images are shot on AEB mode 2 stop bracket, all Photoshop programs (Windows Vista 32bit) are installed in the default locations, cache is 60% memory, and scratch disk is from the internal hard drive. Images loaded to the Photomatix Pro Standalone all work with no problems. Can you tell me what may be wrong as to why the images won't load to Photoshop CS3's HDR? Maybe I should just buy the Photomatix Pro Stand Alone software and skip the plug-in. Thanks Tom Matt,
