Question using Lightroom
Dwayne Woodard, Photographer

->> I have been using Lightroom to process my Nikon RAW files. My question is can you process Nikon and Canon RAW files together (same folder) at the same time or should I edit them separately(separate folders)? I would like to get the most consistent results so the images look alike.

Thank you
Dwayne

->> Thanks Jeff,

I shoot Nikon D300 & D700 and the files look the same when processed with lightroom. I recently shot a wedding using Nikon and my 2nd shooter used a pair Canon 5D. I want to organize all of the photos from the wedding (Nikon and Canon files) in a single folder and do RAW processing in Lightroom so all the files look very close to the same. Is there a problem doing this, or should I process the Canon and Nikon files separately?

Dwayne

->> As far as I know, it should not be a problem. I frequently process Phase and Canon files from the same shoot with no difficulties. I have not tried it with Nikon and Canon but I think the results would be the same.

->> FJ,

Does Lightroom load each cameras profile automaticaly or do you process using the adobe default profile? I want the colors and contrast to look as close as possible.

Thanks
Dwayne

It doesn't matter how many cameras you shoot with and what brands as long as Lightroom can process those raw images - you can have them in the same folder as well. Lightroom reads each individual file and knows what camera shot what image via the images EXIF data.

My vote for post of the year ... about soaked my new Mabook with the pepsi I was sipping on.

Thanks to all for you quick response and input.

I think that Jeff's comment was great also.
