Lightroom crash course - Awesome! October 8, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I got my copy a couple of weeks ago and have enjoyed working through from cover to cover.
The book is easy to read and has really gotten me up to speed in Lightroom 2 a heck of a lot faster than I expected!
I am familiar with Chris Orwig's Lynda.com video training materials and was curious to see if he could communicate in print with the same passion as he does in video.
Not only is the passion there but it is presented clearly and succinctly.
Totally worth the $$.

Great support tool September 24, 2008
6 out of 7 found this review helpful

Experienced and intermediate Lightroom users will find this a great reference. It's an excellent support tool, topically organized, in the order of Lightroom's modules and tools. If you need help with a particular tool, like the new gradient filter, it's simple to go right to that section, without having to dig through the index. Also, each section gives me just enough to get going on my own, without a lot of extra verbiage, which might be fun to read, but it's becomes more time-consuming when you just need something quick. This was the first book available, and well priced. I'll probably get his Photoshop book, too, when the CS4 version becomes available.

I just got my copy of the book this past weekend and already it has already paid for itself! As a new photographer, familar to other Adobe products but new to Lightroom this book is perfect. I find it is easy to simply flip around to the different sections, learn something new and can begin using it right away. Plus no long winded, how-to sections that you don't need or read anyway....
Adobe Lightroom is such a powerful tool and the more I learn the more impressed I am - and for me this book is now one of those essential for learning how to really use and get the most out of it.

I'm always in need of succinct resources that are easy to navigate and which deliver the message in direct and easy to grasp ways. This book really does it for me. I strongly recommend it. Chris has a natural talent for relating to users and communicating in a very effective way. I'm a big fan.
