Godfrey, I am almost ;-) ready to admit that LR RAW processing engine is *far* superior than that of CS2 ;-). If LR is priced reasonably, it may be just the sweet spot for me ;-). Boris Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: Challenge? no. Here are two quickie conversions, one in Lightroom and the

I've been working with CS3 a bit more lightly than with Lightroom. Yes, a lot of the features made it into Camera Raw 4, and Camera Raw 4 will share most processing parameters with Lightroom. But I prefer the organization of features and interface in Lightroom vs CS3/Bridge/Camera Raw. And
