Let’s face it, having 11 increments (and more) on one slider is more forgiving than 5 quick adjustments (Natural, Natural+, Medium, Surreal, and Surreal+). The Lighting Effects Mode is not nearly as powerful as the Lighting Adjustments Slider.A preset can be used as a baseline, but very rarely do they make a ‘one and done’ image.
