Additionally, I'm not researching software in that area - the only opensource I use is for CMS/blog/photoblogging. 2) Best of breed does not mean open source. On the contrary, one should expect to pay a premium for best of breed (with exceptions of course) - my remark was made in the context of comparing two Adobe products (both retail): Photoshop versus Lightroom. The former is a swiss army knife, the latter is essentially a dedicated/standalone product. Photoshop is an established product which goes well beyond photo-editing. I have it and I don't have any intention of uninstalling it. Lightroom is the new kid on the block. Price aside (Lightroom is much cheaper) which one does a better job for general photography? But the real point of the thread was to get some feedback - can Lightroom better meet the needs of a general photographer versus PS and why. This includes tasks such as adjusting the exposure. Photoshop has a variety of tools of increasing complexity: brightness/contrast ---> levels ---> curves. For the complete novice there are even auto levels etc. Can Lightroom do it better? What does better mean? You tell me. :) Nature & Travel Photography [url=http://www.sleepingwolves.com]Visit the Sleeping Wolves[/url] Loading...
