INCOMING: Quest Tools 08 ExF Light Leaks
An exciting new set of tools lands on Quest on February 1st - Quest Tools 08 ExF Light Leaks.
These tools are part of the ExFilm family of presets, known for crafting beautiful, timeless imagery inspired by the look of expired film. With these tools comes a new way to add character and dimension to your images with eighteen light leaks faithfully replicated from actual film scans AND a special Vintage Tone tool that can be applied over any preset to create a nostalgic, filmy vibe. Here’s the set description followed by some example images:
In film photography, a light leak occurs when unintended light exposes the film, resulting in unpredictable streaks, spots, or fogging within the image. Rather than being considered flaws, these imperfections can inject a vibrant sense of energy into the frame, contributing to the overall narrative of your photograph.
Introducing Quest Tools 08 ExF Light Leaks — a powerful tool that allows you to precisely control the appearance of these nostalgic visual effects in your images using Lightroom’s masking capabilities. The collection comprises eighteen light leak presets, offering a diverse range of styles, colors, and placements of light leak effects designed for seamless layering and adjustment within the masking panel.
Additionally, the set includes a Vintage Tone tool that can be effortlessly layered over any other preset. This transformative feature turns your edit into an analog-inspired masterpiece characterized by desaturated colors, muted dynamics, a gentle haze, and filmic grain.
