I was just informed that Lightroom 2 has been released. I read about this version a while back and of course played with the beta while on various outings. Version 2 really packs a wide array of new features, fixes and UI improvements. You can read more about the features and changes on the Lightroom blog.
Colin of PhotoshopCafe has released a new Lightroom 2 DVD that will walk you through the changes, as well as teach you some really awesome concepts and tricks. I highly recommend it.
Update: Colin Smith of PhotoshopCafe has just posted a detailed overview of Lightroom 2.
Just in time for PhotoshopWorld in Orlando, Adobe has released a public beta for Adobe Lightroom 2. This new version really has a lot of great features to offer, which include advanced filtering, better photoshop integration and faster importing/storing.
The coolest and most advanced feature would have to be localized adjustments. I have only started to touch on this feature since I downloaded it, but let me just say it is both amazing and super useful.
I will be giving Lightroom 2 (LR2) a run in the real world this week while I am on a pretty amazing photography trip, which I will be sure to blog about in depth when I return. Also, if you happen to be at PhotoshopWorld this week head on over to PhotoshopCafe’s booth where you can pick up some Lightroom, Photoshop and Flash video training.
Note: I will not be blogging for about 2 weeks starting Friday, but will return with new stuff.
