The Develop module's defaults include:
- White balance: As Shot
- Blacks: 5
- Brightness: 50
- Contrast: 25
- Point Curve: Medium
- Sharpening: 25
- Color noise reduction: 25
- Profile: Adobe Standard
These defaults can be overridden by a Develop Preset applied at Import time, or can be changed.
To change the defaults in the Develop module:
- Press the Reset button at the bottom of the right panel. This will adjust all controls to the current default settings.
- Make any adjustments you wish to make to the defaults.
- Press and hold the Alt/Option key, and note that the Reset button is now Set Default... Press it.
Note that if you have your Preferences set to have different defaults per camera and/or per ISO, you may need to repeat these steps for each applicable camera, ISO, or camera/ISO combination.
Note 2: This will affect new Imports, but will not affect images which have already been imported.
