[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 492677, member: 14443"] not a LR fan. too slow, too heavy, bloated, not user friendly. you have tons of things you can do but try finding how to do them. buttons are small and hidden and the sliders are way too small. like PS. im a veteran. an been using it since V4 I think so I know my way around, but a newbie trying to use it will have a VERY hard time unless someone shows him. I have LR on my pc but I dont think ive ever used it on my new one. I rather use capture NX2 and I do. the export function is a completely inefficient system for editing. its good for those who want to hoard tons of photos and then change and rechange and then change again. everyone has different needs though. I need speed, I need a variety of tools and fast workflow. LR did not satisfy my needs so looked for something else. a friend recommended acdsee. wow it was ages when I last used that. downloaded it, installed, 15 minutes and I was good to go. for me and editing thousands of images for weddings its king. I can work in the "non destructive" method like LR and export out, or I can edit and it saves the edits on the go in the folder, saving me from the wasteful time of exporting. it saves like PS. deleting an image is just a press away. no need for the dumb popup "do you want to delete this image" notification crap. I can just go to the recycle bin if I did so by accident. for specific editing of images and modifying, PS is king. capture for exporting raw to jpeg. LR is not relevant anymore for me. LR is not a smart software (ANYMORE) even loading thumbnails is extremely slow. [/QUOTE]
