looking for lightroom tutorial

look on the adobe site.Theres a ****load of stuff on lightroom there.Just do a google search on adobe lightroom tutorials.

really,it's that simple.
 
Apple iTunes App Store has some tutorials (LR4 and PSCS6) by Serge Ramelli. Only $5-6, I thought very helpful, esp. for the price. He even has free demo (excerpt) versions for download.
 
i have been watching videos and playing a bit on my own...i just might be able to figure this out...though pse seems so simple now after years of using it alone.

thanks for the info guys...
 
The guys from LuLa have some of the best tutorials about LR, though they are neither short nor simple. They are worth far more than the price of admission. If you're really interested in finding out what LR is capable of, you should check out their tutorials. Michael Reuchmann and Jeff Schewe actually get to help develop LR. You can't go wrong with them.
 
if shooting raw, LR is unbeatable imo. made recently switch from PS (after many years of using) and cannot not be more pleased. there aren't many things am missing, though PS stands aside in case its needed. thx for the links btw :)

applying same operation to batch of files (e.g. same noise reduction to all dng's above ISO x) is only thing so far havent found/learned. with ACR this is easy.
 
I'm thinking about switching from Aperture to Lightroom due to Adobe's Camera Raw and better rendering of my Ricoh GXR DNG files. Been on the fence for a while now due to the fact that I'd have to learn a whole new interface.

So in preparation I bought Scott Kelby's latest book: Lightroom 4 for Digital Photographers.

I bought mine through Amazon for about $10 bucks less.

You might look into an actual text, used. I found that with the depth of the application, an actually book was helpful. I think I read the book by Evening, FWIW.

Be careful with the Sync button. If the little toggle switch on it is turn, the sync will be global (your whole library)!
