The printing capabilities of Lightroom are pretty extensive now in version 3, providing tools to print booklets with multiple prints per page in artistic layouts very easily.

Additionally, Lightroom provides to additional workflows for generating web sites and slide shows, as well as a very rich workflow for print management. You don't have to switch back and forth, and many library-management activities can be performed from Lighroom film strip on demand. Workflow is better with Lightroom, as your library management and development are all in a single application. Some tools offer capabilities that are not found in Photoshop, like the new camera lens profiles of Lightroom 3. There are a wide variety of other photography-related tools that are also available at your fingertips in Lightroom, where as the same tools or operations may require a sequence of activities to find and use in Photoshop.

In Photoshop, you don't have at-hand access to the histogram, tone curve, white-balance (color balance), and exposure tools all at once.

However the good news is that it was able to rename files the way I wanted to combines the existing file name with the creation date stamp.While Photoshop+Bridge generally offer the same capabilities, Lightroom is packaged and designed in such a way that all those capabilities are far more accessible. I''ve been importing and also hacking meta data with other products at the same time, I had not realized that Lightroom does not automatically sync these external changes, so I'''m taking a very long lunch while it reimports everything. I've run into my first newbie problem with light room.

(Warning - Windows Home Server is potentially a good product, but has several serious bugs that can make it appear to be backing up when it''s not - if you have multiple partitions that have ever been resized, then watch out) I''ll be putting a second drive in that to get drive redundancy. I also use Windows Home Server to do daily backups to another computer and drive.

Right now, I archive new stuff to DVD twice a month and keep offsite DVDs. I agree with the drive problem, I have had many fail,and also managed by sheer luck and ingenuity (like putting them in a freezer,a nd reading them upside down while cold) to recover sometimes. If you had a LOT of images in one folder, Just to to lunch while it is doing the job. It can include all IPTC info you wish to add, including a creation date. To add metadata, highlight all images in the folder and click sync metadata. In Library, Metadata, if you do not see it, click the triangle after metadata. When I began using Lightroom, it used all the folders, and the files in them, that I had burned to a CD or DVD. There is a lot you can do with Lightroom, you have only seen it a short time. When you burn new copies, you can make a copy name, and export it with it set to add the copy date. If I then modify anything in Photoshop, again I burn it to the DVD, with different folders for each step.įor years, I named folders by the persons name or a Location like Yosemite and date. make modifications, and burn them as TIFFs to the same DVD. Before doing anything, I copy them from the card with Picture Project to a folder. I put the original data D: drive, and read them with lightroom right off the drive. Used to burn them to 8" floppies, then CD's, now DVD's. Have had too many dries go belly up since 1975 to trust them. Personally, do not keep my files on a drive. Ideally a batch function, something that could parse and extract the date from the file name structure I have used or for other cases, to use the file date, if the EXIF date is zero The idea of doing it manually, one by one, is depressing.įirst Lightroom can manage files the way you set them up. It appears my only recourse is find a good utility that will allow me to either correct missing date info in the EXIF, or add an EXIF. IN other cases, the directory name where the JPGs are stored, or the actual file name will give me date information. For some of my photos, the creation date, is (or is very close to) the actual photo creation date.įor one of my older digital cameras, a lot of the time the EXIF data is 0 for the creation date, and the file date is the only historical info on the photo date.įor another older camera, I have no EXIF data so I may depend on the file date.

I guess this is correct from one point of view, but I'm pretty sure that software I used originally to tag the photos did not change the date. The first thing I find is that it, like bridge, changes the file date if any keywords change.
