Re: Lightroom help

As Grant said I find I use Lightroom more than PS now.

I find that for the majority of my images I can process the raw files and save as TIFF or JPEG, resize, print and create galleries for my websites without leaving Lightroom.

Only with particularly difficult images do I have to transfer the image to PS.

If I could only have either PS CS3 or Lightroom I think I would opt for Lightroom.

Re: Lightroom help

Use it all the time, only use something else now if I want to clone or pop a border etc on something. Everything goes through Lightroom, and then anything like cloning, gets done in Elements or CS2. I also find it so easy to use, now I know what I am doing


Lightroom is my friend xxxx

Re: Lightroom help

Light room is great for RAW files

Although you will get better results from your cameras own software, such as Nikons CaptureFX.
