An Adobe Lightroom Review

Adobe's latest addition to its product line is a brand new application called Lightroom. Even though Lightroom has only been released as a beta, the buzz around it has been quite amazing.
According to Adobe, the theory behind Lightroom is to provide a single environment that has all of the functions photographers most commonly need to perform on their images. Lightbox includes tools for importing, organizing, correcting, printing and showcasing large volumes of digital images.
Targeted specifically at professional photographers, Adobe has worked closely with industry active photographers to ensure they deliver an application that works and adapts to a photographers real world work flow.
In this review I have outlined some of the features that really impressed me and mentioned some of the tools I hope will be added to the final product. It is an exciting new application and worth being checked out by anyone who works with large numbers of digital images.
