I have just tried it out and could not see any change in nose or grain (using my converted Olympus OM-D E-M5). If you use Viveza for just the 180° hue adjustment, this should not affect noise or grain.With regards to the red-blue swap I have two comments: I am glad the DNG profile works out for you. Hi Alberto – thank you for sharing your findings here. Of course Photoshop is mentioned, but you will also find guides for Photoshop Elements, Nik Viveza 2 (part of the Nik collection) and Nikon Capture NX2. Jason Odell (one of the Nikonian Image Doctors) published a blog entry explaining various ways to create the blue sky effect. Unfortunately, there is no equivalent to the channel mixer in Lightroom.įor those of us not using Photoshop, I recently discovered some other ways to achieve the same effect. The most widely published method is this: you export your image to Photoshop and then use the channel mixer to swap the blue and red channels. If you are using Lightroom for your digital infrared photography, you did probably already realize that you cannot create the infrared blue sky effect using only Lightroom tools. Just a quick and simple sign of gratitude. 🙏 Buy me a coffee 2.Workflow for Lightroom Classic 9.2 and earlier
