In Lr there is no capture sharpening. Sharpening is final edited image sharpening. There is print sharpening post edit, for targeted printing.
This is not correct. Any sharpening you do within Lightroom in the develop module can be considered “capture sharpening”. LR, by default, adds a small amount to start.
I have, however, found a good setting that I use for sharpening images that I later bring into PS for additional work. (This is not to be confused with the output sharpening when you export your RAW or print via the Print Module.)
I use a setting of 80 with a radius of .5 and then mask based on subject. (For me as a fashion photographer, I want to keep skin smooth so often mask from 20-30, based on lighting, subject, camera.)
For me, I do one last bit of sharpening when I export for Photoshop. I set export sharpening to “screen - low”. I find these settings do a good job for prepping my image for additional work without introducing other artifacts. Often the images for one client are blown up to 8’ tall, others are about 17” to 20”. All are printed. However, I do roughly the same thing when I work on my landscape images which are anywhere from 5x7 to 40”x60”. The difference for all these images is NOT the sharpening I’ve done in LR when developing but sharpening for final output. Now, THERE is the real difference in settings. My clients will do final sharpening for there own needs. For myself, I usually print from Lightroom and use the excellent settings Jeff helped develop based on size and subject.
