Adobe has launched version 2 of its Lightroom raw processing and workflow tool. The result of feedback from professionals and a public bate process, version 2 of the software follows the basic structure of its predecessor but with a variety of tweaks and additions. The most obvious change is an increased ability to make localized changes. This include a gradient tool that allows alterations to be applied selectively across an image.
Yes. LR 2 will create a LR 2 version of your existing catalog, leaving the existing catalog file untouched. You can download LR2 and try out for 30-days btw.
