Spent a fortune buying Adobe Lightroom 2.? (not sure of the exact version, it is on my laptop) and Adobe Photoshop CS4 for this computer (main) Can you tell me if or why I should go buy the new one over what I already paid for?
Any feedback, suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
Lightroom is a glorified version of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) that comes with Photoshop and Bridge. Considering the price tag, I personally don't see the value in Lightroom aside from its organizing features...which I admit seem pretty cool for doing batch work. If you're a good organizer, then there's really not much benefit to owning Lightroom at all. Save your pennies for a bit longer and just get Photoshop.
