Lol he has a beasty i7 rig.. what's he complaining about time for


Photoshop Raw can load a batch of files too and has a lot more specific editing functions ^ ^

adobe camera raw doesnt have much more editing functions than the processing mode in lightroom afaik?
The tools after is a whole other story though.

It has everything worth doing before the photoshop process of editing ^ ^

i7 doesnt make the manual part of sorting thru and editing a few dozen./hundred pics any faster

Yeah it would. Loading up and flicking through 100-200, 15-20mb raw images manually in lightroom with a high res preview can be a drainer of a process :/

of course.
But for every picture that you aren't gonna retouch at all in photoshop, means saved time if you use lightroom.
When I've taken a series of shots from an event, I pretty much never retouch my photos. For this, lightroom is awesome.

hasnt this been out for awhile now? glad someone posted it though
im waiting on the official release.

Well, yeah. Lightroom 3 beta 1 was released a few months ago. But this is lightroom 3 beta 2.
