ruderman preset pack two.
Welcome to ruderman preset pack two! This is my follow up to my first ever preset pack that I released last year and it features twice as many presets as last time!
These are looks which I have tweaked and developed over the past 6 months and can be considered an upgrade to the original preset pack, with additional extra looks for more radical situations.
For this pack I wanted to emphasise maximum compatibility amongst camera brands, as the first pack was heavily tailored towards Fuji’s colours. To do this I have gone through the archives and applied these presets to a variety of different camera brands to see how they respond and ensure they all work great.
I have tested these presets with Lumix, Leica, Canon, Sony and of course Fujifilm to make sure they all deliver exceptional results and help you to get your images looking the absolute best that they can be!
That said, as a reminder, presets are never going to be a “one click and its done” type deal, you should always tweak your white balance and curves to match the scene itself, use these as a great starting off point instead!
You will get these 6 great presets:
EFFORTLESS: Simple, elegant and effortless, the preset for when you don’t know what to apply, grain like 200 ISO film, this is an updated and more refined version of my EVERYDAY 400 preset that has been designed for maximum compatibility amongst different camera brands rather then just being specifically tailored towards Fuji.
EFFORTLESS LITE: When EFFORTLESS is a bit too much and you want to tone it down, reach for this handy preset.
NIGHTWALKER: Blade runner, cyberpunk - grime and grunge, Nightwalker is the preset designed to be used at night, giving you a punchy, contrasty look that makes the AM hours look extra special. Can also be used during the day to give you a more cold, bleaker look which is great for when you are shooting in a cityscape.
NOSTALGIA: We all love film, and emulating it to give photos a nostalgic appearance, but with the NOSTALGIA preset you get strong purple shadows and strong grain, giving you a expired film look that looks great for moody portraits, especially with flash!
TROPICAL: You know these hot summer days? Direct overhead sun? Lush greens, bright blues and overall vibrant and lush colours, TROPICAL is the look to use when you want to really emphasise that sun soaked paradise you are capturing!
TIMELESS: Timeless is a less intense black and white look that’s perfect when you want a beautiful and classic black and white look that emphasises portraits, but also works great for landscapes if you want to get your Ansel Adam’s on. Less Intense then MONOCHROM from preset pack one.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
While this preset pack has been designed to be more widely compatible with different cameras, you may still have to tweak the white balance and tint to suit your preferred look, no preset will be a one-click-and-its-done situation!
This preset pack is non-refundable due to it being a digital product.
This pack is ONLY compatible with Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic
