Adjust Midtone Exposure With The Color Grading Tool In Lightroom
The new Color Grading tool in Lightroom Classic is excellent for color tinting a photo. I’ll have a deeper video on the tool as a whole coming soon.
Another bonus use is for finer adjustments to midtone exposure. The Basic panel doesn’t have a midtones slider, but we can use the Luminance slider for the Midtones wheel in the Color Grading tool instead. You can also get a little extra control by adjusting Balance to steer adjustment to the upper or lower midtones.
