Default Photoshop light room.

This looks like a handy PS addon, for those who use it...

I wouldn't mind trying lightroom, but if it's anything adobe's other products it'll be a pig on ram. Can't anyways...last time I looked you had to have windows xp to run it.

I'm using Win2000Pro which I like better than any other windows OS, so unless they make it available to run on other OS for win I'll probably never get the chance.

Windows 200 pro, is a good OS, i was using it untill I was forced to upgrade due to software compatablity issues. (games~)

It used to run so much faster than XP.


I installed the official beta of whistler the other day and my p4 2.8 1gb ram pc nearly stopped alltogether. I took it off with an hour.. Thats the problem with windows!

I know what you mean...I've got a 1gig ram too. Only had the 1 gig for maybe six months and already I'm looking at replacing it with somewhere in the 2 (maybe even 4) range.

So far, CS2 runs fine on what I've got, but just try using any of the Nikon software...runs slow? Well, actually I think it runs backwards it's so slow :shock:

lol, bad programming,


There is no good reason that software should run slow, Lazy programming, they expect PC's to get faster so dont tidy up code and make things efficient.

I havent tried the Nikon stuff, most of the canon stuff its ok at best.

I suppose its the result of camera makers trying to make software!

I am playing with lightroom at the moment and it seems to be a fairly steep learning curve compared to the free version of Raw Shooter Essentials 2006 but looks as if it will do an awful lot more.

Has anyone else really tried it out and come to a conclusion or is it just too complicated :wink:
