Just brilliant !!!! 20 minutes as a visual learner has just saved me 10 hours of trying to read the Lightroom book - I am SO grateful I can't tell you.
Anthony, many thanks indeed your videos have been immensely helpful in my understanding and use of Lightroom. Keep up the good work I am sure that there are many more like me. Best regards Neil
Excellent video, Anthony, and so well explained. I haven't used collections before, so it was very helpful. Can't wait to create some collections. Cheers.
Thanks Anthony an excellent tutorial, no waffle just facts clearly explained. I've learned a lot. Your channel is now my default goto for Lightroom tutorials.
This is Episode 4 of Mastering Lightroom Classic CC. In this video, I demonstrate the three different types of Collections in Lightroom -- Quick, Normal, and Smart. I also talk about the usefulness of Targeting a collection.

You have a great way of explaining topics. Clear and really easy to understand. Working my way through the complete playlist and, although I'm relatively familiar with Lightroom, am picking up really useful tips in every video. Thank you.
These are great! I finally broke down and got Lightroom and Photoshop so I no longer have to have complicated file folders, duplicates, etc on my hard drive and can quit using a combination of several other programs (IrfanView, GIMP, Photoshop Express, etc.) to post process my photos. That alone is good, but, thanks to your well-presented videos, I've already improved my image processing. And I'm only on the fourth in your series. Looking forward to the rest!
I figured out collections, normal anyways, by trial and error two days ago. This would have save me time. But now I have a broader understanding and reinforced what I got right. Thanks.
Excellent videos, I have started from the first and I will make way along as they come on screen, really helpful and brilliantly explained and so simple to follow, thanks Anthony
I love this LR series - you have taught me sooo much! Thank you! I have a question though - do you process your images in 'Folders' first, after you have culled them, or do you put them into 'Collections' (if so , which), and then do you process them? This is a bit confusing - I would like to keep the images for my Portfolio in Smart Collections. Please cold you help? Thanks again!
Thanks! Found out I was doing a lot incorrectly. Fortunately not for a very long time so moving forward I will have a grasp on how the collection system works.
Great videos. Can you please let me know do you just close LR or do you some how close the images as in PS. I know you said you don’t have to save images. Thanks for your videos ps. I’m new to LR.
I put a pic in a collection in library mode and then develop it. The developed version is in a subfolder of the main folder in which that original photo is. So now the collection will show the final edited image or original un-edited image?
when I created a smart collection, the pictures are all vertical although i have several that are landscape. How do I go about so that the smart collection shows the pictures in the correct way?
You are from Boston, aren't you? I can tell by the way you say dot CAAM! Well, I guess its no secret since you showed pics of the Boston History Museum last vid.
Couple questions: On the smart collection at the top...... if you have that set as the target collection with the “+” sign..... can you later take all those images in that “Quick” collection and drag them to a new collection or let’s say make a new collection for those images to live? Next question..... with smart collections.... after you have made your smart collection and gathered all your images you want for that collection..... can you turn off that smart collection and have it as a normal collection? And maybe call it something like “Graduation Slide Show” or make it for a book? So let’s say I have three kids and I want to make a book just about all three kids graduations in one book.... could I set up a “smart” collection and then after collecting all those photos from three kids, could I then not have it as a smart collection any longer and just call it “my kids graduations” as an example? Just a bit confused on what do you do with those images you collected for the “Quick” collection and as well for a smart collection? Can you have multiple smart collections or only one at a time? For instance, like have a Christmas smart collection and every Christmas every year they go to that smart collection and say another fsmart collection for say birthdays or another for vacations? I hope I explained my questions well enough. Ps... I am learning so much from your videos and love them... just a couple questions I’m confused about. Thank you and I hope to hear back from you. I’m just starting Lr so I’ve been following your videos to get up and running! 😊
How to I keep my rule from applying to pics outside of a collection set. For example, I keep all my baseball pics in a collection set with picks, selects (red), published (blue). I have just created a football collection set, but when I color code these photos I see pics from the baseball collection set????
