The programm is wonderfully intuitive, fast and powerful.

When will camera profiles become available? I am using the Olympus E-500.
A red-eye reduction module would also be appreciated.

Thank you for all the great work.

This is great for us Apple’s. I must get going on the learning curve — uhmmm, not so bad. Are there any7 101 tutorials out there yet? Why did the Beta prefer to begin with the Mac?

Please put me on the beta list for windows. Thank you, your program looks wonderful.

Does it support DNG?

Thank you,

Maria

Thanks for the nice review! I’m looking forward to the Windows version as well.

I’m actually thinking of getting a Macbook (non-pro) for my pics… will Lightroom run fast enough, assuming I max out the RAM? Using a 350D btw.

Grr, this software just looks so good.

Wish they’d hurry up with the Windows release. Knowing my luck they’ll charge a left testicle for it

I am already addicted to Lightroom – Beta 3 simply means there is no hope of recovery. The only “gotta have” for me is a Healing tool. The rest is pure luxury…
Thanks for a great update review, Jeff.

Many thanks for the intro to B3. Interested to hear your comments on speed as it really doesn’t run fast enough yet with 16MB RAW files. Perhaps I need more RAM (762MB on Powerbook G4 1.67GH).

Wow!! Nice one Jeff, very nicely detailed and lovely screenshots as well as the photos you have used to make this demo. Now I really cannot wait for the Windows version! Now where did I leave that time machine?

Already had some very good experience with beta 2; although switching between LR and CS2, I noticed considerable differences in contrast and tonal values.
And I had the same experience as Jouko Ruuskanen, especially with BW conversions.
But – the love at first sight continues.
