[QUOTE="dukatum, post: 301411, member: 23829"] Well I was writing a big reply to introduce you to many more options, GIMP, DxO, NX-D (beta from nikon), SilkyPix (which NX-D is based on), Darktable, etc etc. But to be honest, Lightroom is probably more than enough for majority of photographers in the world today, and since a lot of the work in photoshop can be done in Camera Raw filter (which is same editing engine as Lightroom) the advanced usage for Photoshop may be something you never touch in years if ever. But the reason I'd recommend lightroom is because of the number of tutorials and books available to get you up and running quick, not just with image editing, but tagging, cataloguing, printing, the web, etc. [URL="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adobe-Photoshop-Lightroom-Classroom-Book/dp/0321928482/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1399093620&sr=8-1&keywords=lightroom+in+a+classroom"]Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5: Classroom in a Book Classroom in a Book Adobe: Amazon.co.uk: Adobe Creative Team: Books[/URL] <<-- Excellent book, read it cover-2-cover [URL="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Photoshop-Lightroom-Digital-Photographers-Voices/dp/0321934318/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1399093643&sr=8-1&keywords=scott+kelby+lightroom+5"]The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Book for Digital Photographers Voices That Matter: Amazon.co.uk: Scott Kelby: Books[/URL] <<-- Great book, read it cover-2-cover as well Read one of these books and you'll be running full steam ahead.
