Adobe has recently released its latest version of Lightroom, which has been anticipated with high hope by many users. As of so far I believe they have once again delivered some outstanding imaging software. I have not had a chance to use the product, but I am also yet to see a negative review. Lightroom is a program in which you can sort, organize, develop, and publish your photos, or send them to photoshop for finishing. One of the added features to this version streamlines the importing process making it easier to avoid importing duplicates. The software also gives you access to all collections and recent folders, so you don't have to switch to the Library module to access photos.
Though the features listed above are quite convenient, one of the more dramatic updates is how it processes RAW files. Adobe has rewritten the demosaicing, sharpening, noise reduction, and vignetting algorithms, and the program now allows you to add film-like grain to your pictures. Some of these terms are meaningless to a guy like me, but to sum it up these features allow for much finer image quality.
With new editing software getting more and more sophisticated the need to take properly lit and exposed photos is decreasing. With this said, professional photographers in the future might have a hard time creating scenes superior to those using advanced editing software.
