Zno Pixel uses AI to analyze and edit each photo individually based on the Profile you select. You can also apply AI cropping, straightening, and masking, then use editing filters to control which photos are included.
Follow the steps below to edit your photos in Zno Pixel.
For more information about how Zno Pixel applies edits, see [How Does Editing Work in Zno Pixel?].
Step 1: Create a Project and Import Your Photos
Open Zno Pixel and create a new project.
You can import RAW files from your computer, an external drive, or an existing Lightroom Classic catalog.
For detailed instructions, see How to Import Photos into Zno Pixel.
Step 2: Cull Your Photos
Culling your photos before editing is optional. You can use AI Culling to review and organize your images or manually select the photos you would like to edit.
For more information, see How to Cull Photos with Zno Pixel.
Step 3: Choose a Profile
Open the editing workspace and select a Profile at the top of the left sidebar.
You can choose from:
- Prebuilt Profiles, which are ready-to-use editing styles available from the Profile Library
- Custom Profiles, which are created using your previously edited Lightroom Classic catalogs
- Quick Profiles, which are created from an existing Lightroom preset
Zno Pixel uses the selected Profile as the basis for your editing style while analyzing and adjusting each photo individually.
Step 4: Choose Your Editing Options
Use the controls in the left sidebar to choose the additional adjustments you would like Zno Pixel to apply.
AI Cropping
Turn on AI Cropping to automatically adjust the framing of your photos.
Use the dropdown menus to choose your preferred cropping settings, including:
- Loose for a more conservative crop
- Aggressive for a tighter crop
AI Straightening
Turn on AI Straightening to automatically correct photos that appear tilted.
AI Masking
Turn on AI Masking to identify the main subject and create an editable subject mask that can be fine-tuned after exporting to Lightroom Classic.
Step 5: Filter the Photos You Want to Edit
Under Editing Filter in the left sidebar, choose which photos should be included in the editing process.
You can filter your photos by:
- Camera
- Color label
- Star rating
- Flag status
The available filter options are based on the photos and ratings in your project. Leave the filters unselected to include all applicable photos.
Step 6: Start Editing
After selecting your Profile, editing options, and filters, click Edit to begin.
Zno Pixel will apply the selected Profile and editing options to the photos included by your filters.
Step 7: Export Your Photos
Once editing is complete, you can export your photos to a folder on your computer. You can also export them to Lightroom Classic to fine-tune the edits, crops, straightening, and masks before completing your workflow.
