Lightroom Point Color: See EXACTLY What You're Editing

Lightroom’s Point Color tool gives you precise control over hue, saturation, and luminance. But sometimes it’s hard to tell exactly which colors are being affected.

Even with Visualize Range checked, the selection isn’t always obvious.

In this quick tip, I’ll show you a simple trick: temporarily exaggerate the Luminance to clearly see the affected range, then refine the Range slider for your photo.

Once that’s set, you can fine-tune hue, saturation, and luminance with confidence.
