- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
I use LR3 for about 85% of my processing work because its so streamlined in the editing\organizing areas. Adjusting color, sharpness, dodging, burning, adding vignettes, etc, all stuff easily done in LR. What used to take hours to edit and organize in Photoshop, takes minutes in LR.
When it comes time to do any more hardcore editing, special effects or filters, heavy cloning, lots of skin retouching or for any HDR work, I look to CS5. The content aware healing\cloning is simply awesome and I hope they implement it into LR in the future, though the LR selective editing tools are no slouch either.
Ill admit though...the more versions of LR that come out, the less and less I use Photoshop! As a stand alone product, I think most photographers could get by in the majority of situations with LR3 alone.
