Adobe Lightroom - New Update

[wildstallion]

A new update has been realised for Adobe Lightroom.

http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/l...ackingid=KRTF.

That link should work.

I have found the improvements to be fantastic, but on first run its been really slow, hopefully the next time I use it it will be faster.

Just thought Id let you guys know

Just downloaded and tried it for the first time. Solid man!
This is what I want instead rather than photoshop. Still trying to figure out the rest of the features.

Hope the price of lightroom is only a fraction of Photoshop CS2.

Agreed! I had been using Adobe Lightroom in my workflow since the window Beta 3 release. The Beta 4, had improved from Beta 3 with new features. Like the software.

hmm.. i beg to differ... i'd rather take photoshop over lightroom.. feels less laggy and more intuitive with all the numbers and such around...


well one man's meat is another man's poison!

Does Lightroom have a directory mode? I don't seem to be able to find it. I really don't like a workflow in which I have to select and import the RAW images before I can see them inside Lightroom.

Thought i was the only one facing issues with the speed... using a 2ghz machine and it crawls ... monitored my CPU usage - its almost 100% all the time.

Hope Beta 4 fixes this issue. A very fine software nonetheless.

Remember its only a beta, CS2 is a final product

It crawls on my 3ghz dual core PC, it has to be a software issue.

yeah... but previously in the first beta, they used sliders.. now in beta 4 they use that +- button thing...

and i agree.. crawls on my 3 ghz.. oh wells.. see what comes out of it.

i downloaded it, and it works great.
Crashed on me a few times thought, but i suspect i was just testing its limit.
Hahahaha
But all in all very good.

I prefer it now, this release is much better than the previous one.

Hopefully the finished product will not crawl!

[episodic]

Lightroom beta v4 is definitely much better than v.3. So far I have been using it for my raw workflow. Havent crashed on me (yet). *fingers crossed*

Any idea how Adobe is going to price this product?
