Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.0-Adobe's superb imaging tool

*Adobe Photoshop Lightroom* is any photographer's dream application come
true. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom allows both professional and advanced
photographers to import, store, organize, edit and export thousands of
pictures from one uncluttered interface. You can create sets and collections
to store your pictures and add tags to every individual photo. The timeline
view at the bottom is a great way to quickly browse through pictures. Editing
tools are located on the right of the interface. The *Library* section works
wonders to adjust things like white balance, exposure or vibrancy quickly.
For advanced editing you'll have to go to the *Develop* section though. This
is where you'll be able to correct details, camera calibration, split toning
and more. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom lets you create virtual copies so you can
edit elements without affecting the original. Adobe's photo management tool
also includes a section to *create your own slideshow*, including transitions
and overlays. Although it creates nice slideshows it feels a bit
counter-intuitive. We also liked how in-depth the print settings were,
letting you adjust things like margins or print resolution very precisely.
The last section allows you to optimize your photos for the web and create a
flash gallery and a postcard viewer among others. It includes integration
with sites such as Faceback and Flickr although not Picasa and iPhoto.
*Thanks to an excellent structure, advanced editing tools and features to
print, publish to web and create a slideshow, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom is
one of the best photo management programs out there.*Download *Adobe
