Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3


Shafkat Shahzad - Senior Technical Content ManagerThe article will provide a user with information on Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3. Adobe Lightroom is Adobe’s latest software version. Lightroom is designed for professional photographers, photo journalists and the extreme digital image enthusiasts. The main purpose of Lightroom is to allow users the option to organize, process and digitally enhance image files (with RAW support).

The Adobe Lightroom 3 interface is split into modules, which are designed to break up the main functions of the software. The Lightroom 3 modules or modes are categorized into:
• Library
• Develop
• Slideshow
• Print
• Web

Each module allows users to take advantage of different features, which together comprise the core functions of Lightroom’s style. Each of the module provides following opportunities:

- The Library module allows users to import and export files, and organize them completely.
- The Develop module allows users to edit RAW files, and the imported images, as well as touch-up and improve them altogether.
- The Slideshow module allows users to view all the imported images, edited images or a selection of images through a stylish and themed slideshow.
- The Print module allows users several different options to print completed work or images from the Lightroom library.
- The Web module allows users to ready images for upload to the web or social media sites.

It is important to note that currently the Lightroom application only includes integrated support for image uploads to Flickr.
Please note that Lightroom 3 is currently the most expensive professional editing software when compared to related products in the same price range.

Adobe Lightroom has custom organization and categorization options, photo editing and enhancement features, visually stunning slideshow support, and of course individual print and web publishing options. When compared to iPhoto, Aperture, ACDSee, Adobe Lightroom 3 costs less time, only when users make use of the custom preset options. A user can alter images using a number of pre-defined, or user created, presets to improve images during an image edit or enhancement session. In this way users can quickly import images, enhance them for publication with a quick preset selection, and then outsource them in a short time.

Users can organize and sort photos in the Lightroom 3 library by custom defined catalogs. These catalogs are further broken down into collections which include full metadata support. Each image in the library is updated with the proper information including defined keywords, metadata, and social media comments. After being sorted, images can be directly published to Flickr, Facebook or SmugMug social services directly from the library.
