Re: OT: Lightroom 5 public beta available
Marnie, each major upgrade (2.x to 3.x, and 3.x to 4.x) seems to have introduced new rendering engine while preserving the older ones. I should say that the LR 4.4 that I'm using now is giving me great deal more in terms of image manipulations that I could perform on my photographs. So not taking into account monetary concerns, I would suggest that you upgrade. May be taking 5.x for trial (given its free beta status) could be a good trigger for you.

Take precise control over what's being removed as you make unwanted objects just disappear. Upright – Straighten tilted images with a single click. Upright analyzes images and detects skewed horizontal or vertical lines. You choose one of four correction methods, and Upright can even straighten images where the horizon is hidden. Radial Gradient – Lead your viewer's eye through your images with more flexibility and control. The radial gradient tool lets you create off-center vignette effects, or multiple vignette areas within a single image. Offline editing with Smart Previews – Easily work with images without bringing your entire library with you. Just generate smaller stand-in files called Smart Previews. Make adjustments or metadata additions to Smart Previews and your changes will be automatically applied to the full-size originals later. Video slideshow sharing – Easily share your work in elegant video slideshows. Combine still images, video clips, and music in creative HD videos that can be viewed on almost any computer or device. Improved photo book creation – Create beautiful photo books from your images. Lightroom includes a variety of easy-to-use book templates, and now you can edit them to create a customized look.

RE: OT: Lightroom 5 public beta available
What, the Mac world is not perfect? What a shock. :-) Next time that you need to do a large download, come on over for a cappuccino :-) Lots of bandwidth here. You are correct though, an SSD upgrade buys you a lot of performance. LR4 on my HP ProBook was a joy to use for editing the 10,000+ DNG photos on our recent cruise. My new dilemna is whether to go back through and see if the tilt correction in LR5 produces a better result for my photos or not. Maybe I will only tweak those that go into the slide shows.

RE: OT: Lightroom 5 public beta available
Yes, I received the email but I have been preoccupied with moving 180GB of photos to my server and then deleting them from my laptop. Always a scary moment when you say Ok to delete. Not sure of the solution to merging the directories yet. I have some volunteer IT work to finish and then will get back to the photos. I have a selection ready to inflict on the list as PESO's. I even have a GESO of Sea photos selected, some at Force 9+. Next week looks good for a coffee session.

Re: OT: Lightroom 5 public beta available
Wow, these updates look fun. Looking forward to the upgrade. Cheers, Christine On Apr 15, 2013, at 2:41 PM, Matthew Hunt m...@pobox.com wrote: The public beta of Lightroom 5 is available for download: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lightroom5/ New Features in Lightroom 5 Beta Advanced Healing Brush – Easily remove objects and fix defects—even those with irregular shapes such as threads or lint—with a single brush stroke. Take precise control over what's being removed as you make unwanted objects just disappear. Upright – Straighten tilted images with a single click. Upright analyzes images and detects skewed horizontal or vertical lines. You choose one of four correction methods, and Upright can even straighten images where the horizon is hidden. Radial Gradient – Lead your viewer's eye through your images with more flexibility and control. The radial gradient tool lets you create off-center vignette effects, or multiple vignette areas within a single image. Offline editing with Smart Previews – Easily work with images without bringing your entire library with you. Just generate smaller stand-in files called Smart Previews. Make adjustments or metadata additions to Smart Previews and your changes will be automatically applied to the full-size originals later. Video slideshow sharing – Easily share your work in elegant video slideshows. Combine still images, video clips, and music in creative HD videos that can be viewed on almost any computer or device. Improved photo book creation – Create beautiful photo books from your images. Lightroom includes a variety of easy-to-use book templates, and now you can edit them to create a customized look. Upload your book for printing with just a few clicks. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: OT: Lightroom 5 public beta available
Damn. Note for Mac users that Mac OS X 10.7.0 or later is required. That rules out folks like me who are still on 10.6.8 for various reasons. Grumble. (Getting harder and harder to avoid an annoying upgrade, and I used to look forward to new Mac OS X upgrades.)
