What is Lightroom ?
Adobe Lightroom is a catalogue based digital workflow program. It enables you to import, organise, process and output your images. The program is totally non-destructive in nature ie it never alters the original image data, but uses metadata to record all adjustments and settings. The program can work non-destructively with JPEG and TIF files as well as RAW files.
The software is divided into different functional modules. The different modules are listed, and selected, in the top right corner of the Lightroom window :-
1. Library Module – for sorting, labelling, comparing and selecting images,
2. Develop Module – for processing and editing the images,
3. Slideshow, Print and Web Modules – for presenting and outputting your images.
Within a catalogue images can be selected based on various criteria, and the selections remembered as ‘Collections’. All the Collections are listed and can be recalled at any time in order to work on those images.
