Adobe light room

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2
Adobe lightroom was a new concept perceived by Adobe engineers in connection with the vast Adobe users' community. It seemed necessary to have a standalone tool, where photographers and advanced amateurs can handle a large amount of pictures, sometimes similar in nature, in order to batch process them and perhaps do fast copyright protection on them, sort them and store them as fast as possible. One of essential tools would be the fast choice capability, where the best shots can easily be identified and selected with the provided tools.

Adobe went a step further than just provide an importing platform for digital photographers, with a glance towards the professional photographer and amateurs who can almost best them; several sensitive additions are integrated and have been added to the Adobe Lightroom 2. Seamless integration with the photographers' flagship Adobe product, the Photoshop image editing software, provides the imaging professional with everything remotely necessary to function completely on a digital level.

By carefully listening to users' objections, Adobe Lightroom provides tons of features which are supposed to make the photographer spend less time in front of a monitor and more time doing the actual shooting. Organizing the vast amount of shot pictures and labeling them, putting them into appropriate folders and even do fast nondestructive edits; furthermore, importing and handling material in raw format, whereby over one hundred and ninety raw file formats are being recognized, easy export and import of common file formats, such as JPEG, TIFF and the Photoshop native PSD format over multiple volumes, drives and even networks, in high resolution, even if the files are not online at the time, over multiple monitors showcasing them and forwarding batches or bulk to the photo agency or the web in few easy clicks, this all is possible and provided by the Adobe Lightroom.

It is not only a simple importing platform, a workflow productivity tool, as the Adobe Lightroom has been labeled, but also a photo editing tool which interacts with the big Photoshop and associated plug ins, where batch processes can be defined and employed in mere seconds, without ever loosing the oversight. The simple and straight forward interface is not designed to allow extensive photo retouching and manipulations at the pixel level, but to provide the photographer to unload the camera, label it, fix the pictures he picked out of the line up and store everything, returning almost immediately back to work.

When photographers return from an assignment, with scores of photos on various memory devices, all they want is to fast flip through them, store them and fix them up, in order to forward them to the client. This is exactly what Adobe Lightroom is made for.
