Hi folks,
I have two photos here that were shot four minutes apart. when I open them in LR 5.6, the options in the basic panel are different, one has the older Recovery, Fill light, and and Blacks options while the other has the newer Highlights, Shadows, Whites and Blacks options. Any ideas as to why this might be?
Thanks.

Never seen that before but easily corrected - in the Develop Module, scroll down to Camera Calibration, click on the Process section and choose 2012 (Current).

Thanks Searcher,
I knew that there as a way to change the process, but I couldn't remember where it was.

Just trying to figure out how that would happen. My only guess so far is that the preset applied differed. Could that have happened? Perhaps on import?

I don't know, I have tried to make it happen, and the way I have found is to change the setting, close and reopen LR and 3 out of 5 times it opened in the latest version. If I reopened the image in which I set the older process, then LR changed to the older process, so I guess it must be written into the metadata.

I may know how it happened. I took these when I first got back into photography and at the time I was using PSE 10 for post. I had done some work on the shot of the bridge in elements and I don't think that I ever touched the other one. So, in bringing them into LR, could the bridge shot carried over the older PSE 10 process while the other shot having not seen PSE, just acted normally?

Yes, the ACR in PSE 10 was I think the older process.

Seems reasonable to me.

You must have accidently changed the process version to 2010 on the second image.
