Any advice on lightroom 5 presets for landscape, portrait and sports? I hate to develop my pictures because of the time it takes.
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

I'm interested in this as well.....much more fun to take pics that edit them!
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21.
Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

Why not just downloading the free NIK Software effects and adding it to your LightRoom app?
Just go here and enter your email address. In a day or two DXO sends you an email with the download link, which is free of charge for the time being.
This is what you get with the NIK plugins package:
-Analog Efex Pro (to create analog version of your photos)
-Silver Efex Pro (to create different versions of B&W effects)
-Color Efex (to enhance or modify all your images: landscapes, portraits, night shots, long exposure, anything imaginable). Used by pro photographers for years and years.
-HDR Effex Pro
-Sharpener Pro (allows you to sharpen a single point in your photo, or the whole photo)
-Vivesa (you can use to increase brightness in a small area, or the entire photo, and the same for saturation, structure, and on, and on)
-Ffine (perhaps the easies to use digital noise remover there is)
That aside, you won't get very far with your digital images unless you edit them at least a little. Some light editing is not difficult to do, and much easier than to develop film and then print your photos.

I'd never heard of NIK before but was able to download here: NIK CollectionAre there any good tutorials available?? That software package cost around $600.00 not too long ago, Then Google bought NIK Software and offered it free of charge to anybody who had already purchased any of the NIK's plugins. A couple of months ago DXO purchased it from Google, and keep it free of charge for a little longer. The next step is for DXO to incorporate the NIK's plugins in some of the photo editing apps they sell. NIK Software package have been used for professional photographers for several years now. Just install it on your LightRoom, Elements, or any stand alone PhotoShop program you may still have. It will be available in the "Filters" folder. Learn how to use it and it will amaze you. I have CS6 on my editing computers, since there is no way that I am going to pay monthly fees to use PhotoShop online.

Some light editing is not difficult to do, and much easier than to develop film and then print your photos. Absolutely. This is an extremely effective way of editing your photos without paying for presets.
