ComputerWorld - Why would you need Adobe's Lightroom 3 if you already have a good photo editor -- whether Photoshop CS, Elements or something else?
Here's one way to tell. If after a holiday weekend you've got 20 or 30 digital photos, you probably don't need $300 workflow management software. But if you wind up with two or three hundred photos -- and find it a bear to pare them down to the ones you want to share or print -- Lightroom may be worth a look.
Adobe has released an update to clean up the mess that was the profiling system in Lightroom. No longer hidden in the settings menus, the new Lightroom Classic CC and Adobe Camera Raw now show these settings up in the top edit panel.
Adobe Lightroom Mobile is now free on all compatible mobile devices. The company just announced the Android version will now work without a subscription, joining a similar change made for iOS back in October.
Adobe Systems has apologized for releasing a bug-plagued update to its Lightroom software but still faces customer wrath over changes to the program for editing and cataloging photos.
