Just bought it and downloading the upgrade as we speak - only $79.00 for the upgrade.
I warmed up to Lightroom much easier/quicker than Elements and I settled right in to having fun, but I still have plenty to learn. Maybe because I use it more than Elements or because I watched a lot of the free Adobe videos. I don't know why, but I found it easier to get started in Lightroom. I hated Elements. Lightroom is probably a similar learning curve to Elements and we both just formed different first impressions. Its a great program and good to have both Lightroom and Elements in your toolbox.I loaded Elements 11 and LR 5 over the weekend and maybe it's just me but Lightroom is frustrating and way over my head. Elements is easy to navigate for me. Does LR5 require a steep learning curve or am I not giving it enough of a chance?

I bought v4 a few months back for about $100. Upgraded to v4.4 online
$79 for the update to v5??
Are there $79 worth of updates? 80% upgrade fee seems pretty steep.

Just went to edit my first image in LR5 and when I went to send it to Photoshop I get the following message...

Like all Adobe error messages, it's absolutely unclear as to what my choices mean, and worse yet, there are no updates that I can actually apply that are available yet. At least Camera RAW 8.1 will (supposedly) be supported in CS6. But this is what we have to look forward to.
Joe, if you bought LR4 after LR5 Beta was announced then you obviously missed all the warnings in various posts here about investing now in 4 when you could use the Beta for free up through the end of June. LR4's price didn't drop until the week LR5 Beta was announced. Alas, live and learn. The additions to 5 are well worth it for me, which is why I'm there already. It depends on what you shoot to see if they are, so I suggest you visit the various launch pages and review the features. For me, the ability to work on images that are on a separate hard drive is significant enough without the new features - but the new features are great. So glad they put the boxes for Lens Correction and CA Adjustment back on one tab again - no need to visit separate tabs.
Is it that much better than LR4 to jump to 5?
