Lightroom 2 released!

I am a disciple of lightroom.

This piece of software makes my life so much easier, speeding up everything from sorting through thousands of images to making adjustments via Adobe's powerful Adobe Camera Raw interface.

Big News, the official full release of Lightroom 2 was released this morning!!!

It is an amazing upgrade from the last iteration, Lightroom 1.4, and promises photographers an even more enhanced workflow experience.

My favourite new features include localised adjustments (awesome when wielding a Wacom Tablet) and support for dual monitors.

According to Adobe, the powers that be have deemed the official top new features list to include:

* Local adjustment brush
* Enhanced organizational tools
* Volume management
* Extensible architecture
* Multiple monitor support
* Flexible print package functionality
* Streamlined Photoshop CS3 integration
* Enhanced output sharpening
* 64-bit support for Windows® and Mac OS


To find out more, check out the awesome Lightroom 2 Learning Centre presented by Scott Kelby and Matt Kloskowski from the NAPP.

Enjoy!
