I have been a Capture One LE user for a couple of years and have used Lightroom and also own Silkypix.
The two areas of Lightroom that were problematic for me were - SPEED - Lightroom is quite resource intensive and I found the overall speed to not be to my liking. This is not to say that it was totally slow on my system, but compared to alternatives, it is slow. The other area that I don't care for in Lightroom is the heavy handed organization that is imposes. For many, this could be considered one of it's best features. For me, who shoots lots of events, weddings and portraits, it gets in the way. I have other programs that I use for those duties including Breezebrowser and ExpressDigital's Darkroom. So what I am saying is, if speed is not an issue for you, and you like the organizational tools, then you would be hard pressed to find a better tool. -- Bruce Monday, April 30, 2007, 3:28:26 AM, you wrote: PG> With the availability of Capture One for the K10D it would be PG> interesting to see how it stacks up against the other options eg.
