Comments on: I Just Saw the Next Version of Lightroom, and… http://www.scottkelby.com/blog/2008/archives/941 Scoops, tips and comments published exclusively for personal friends of Scott Kelby Fri, 21 Nov 2008 20:37:48 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2 By: Chris Crumley http://www.scottkelby.com/blog/2008/archives/941#comment-41660 Chris Crumley Fri, 14 Mar 2008 18:31:23 +0000 http://www.scottkelby.com/blog/2008/archives/941#comment-41660 Scott, Thanks for the upcoming LR summary. V1.4 came out today and isn't the one we were looking for. It's always nice to have little things fixed, but I'm personally anxious for the next BIG one. I didn't see the most needed of all improvements in your summary. Did you accidentally omit an improved Search function? A Boolean search? Away from the panel and fixed fields and real database quick search and display? Like any of the on-line stock house searches. It doesn't do a lot of good to keyword without a really good search engine. Nevertheless, I have 135,000 keyworded image files in LR waiting for the search engine. Please tell us it's coming. Scott,

Man, I really wanted Aperture to succeed. I really wanted to use Aperture over Lightroom. I really wanted to be able to switch back with Aperture 2.0 but Apple's dropped the ball a second time. It's still flaky in areas for speed on a Powerbook G4 (the loupe and compounding adjustments.)I'll bet they didn't fix the problem with Aperture becoming more sluggish the more images you load into a project. For all the slickness on the surface Aperture is missing things that I can do so much faster in Lightroom. Lightroom may seem like a toy to some but I'm sorry, Aperture still sucks big in places that are so much more streamlined in Lightroom. Lightroom does what it should do without the fluff. Aperture looks polished but it's an Edsel. Complants: Still have to open adjustments for each image such as sharpen that I use regularly. Still can't make a group preset that carries all of the adjustments. You have to create a preset for each adjustment. Can't sort images any way other than ratings. I like and use flagging separate from rating and enjoy further sorting with labels. Still have to Lift and Stamp adjustments and metadata to multiple images rather than just hit a button and sync them. And when you try to stamp adjustments it doesn't let you deselect crop from the list of adjustments. Not only is there still no curves tool but Lightroom's is way ahead with the target adjustment feature. I don't think Apple is going to worry about the feedback too much. If so I have to believe they would have fixed the above shortcomings already. Besides, by the time they would make improvements based on the feedback link they provide in the program I'm already going to be well into a Lightroom upgrade cycle. Really Apple, you can't afford to take this kind of time to improve over Lightroom. All that and Lightroom even runs on a G3 plus it has a Windows version. Sadly, a lot of photographers use Windows. I also don't have to keep upgrading my Mac for Lightroom where Apple wants to tie its software to its hardware. I partially used the origial version of Aperture as an excuse to upgrade to a Powerbook G4. Now I have to upgrade my computer again to get the full speed benefit from this version? Meh, no thanks!

I have no problem but the market would open for Adobe it this happens. Think it over, Adobe ! Thanks for a gorgeous tool. I'm sure it will be improved very much in the futurte 2.0 release As the other Spaniard, I encourage you to convince LR team to translate the program into Spanish.
