includes new functionality with significant changes to the library and
develop modules |
John Loiacono, Senior VP-Creative Solutions Business Unit, Adobe said,
“Everything, from image viewing and evaluation tools to timesaving editing
features, was developed with the help of photographers. This was truly a
collaborative effort and we extend our thanks to everyone who provided
invaluable feedback to help us deliver a powerhouse professional photography
tool.”
Photoshop Lightroom includes new functionality with significant changes to
the library and develop modules complementing improvements to the slideshow,
print and web components. In the library module, new advanced key wording tools
help photographers filter through large collections, and an improved import
dialogue with more flexible file handling gives more choice when determining
file location. The new key metadata browser provides quick access to key
information tags with an improved ranking and rating system that now
incorporates color labels and a pick/reject system that sorts and locates
photographs faster than ever. New to the develop module, virtual copies and
snapshot tools help present multiple versions of the same image, giving choice
to clients without the confusion of saving separate physical versions. Page(s) 1
