![]() Lightroom Image Correction Master Class (advanced post-processing) Lightroom Develop Tutorial (focused on actually post-processing the photos) Lightroom Library Tutorial (focused on how you can most efficiently use Lightroom Classic to organize your eventual 10s of thousands of photos) I personally recommend George Jardine's paid video series: Not all are created equal, and in most cases you get what you pay for- that is, the free youtube videos will leave you with gaps in knowledge and sometimes more questions than answers. There are many resources out there for learning it. If LR Classic appeals to you, do yourself a favor and learn it the right way from the start. It's pretty sweet.Īs you can tell, I strongly recommend Lightroom Classic.Įdit: Photography Life has a good article on the differences between the two: But any edit you make on your iPad or iPhone is still perfectly synced back to your originals in LR Classic. Adobe does not count those smaller resolution files toward your storage. How? Classic syncs smaller resolution versions of your photos for display on Lightroom Mobile, web, & TV. very extensible plug-in support for 3rd-party developersįinally, and most oddly, Lightroom Classic is still very much able to sync with Adobe's cloud, without using up your 20 GB storage.geolocation support (marking where your photos were taken on a map).powerful export support, including directly to online services like Facebook, Flickr, Smugmug, etc.powerful DAM - digital asset manager, aka you organize your photos your way.Doesn't seem worth it to me.Īlso, Lightroom Classic has the following extra features that Lightroom Cloudy has not yet implemented, and may never: So if you want to use Lightroom Cloudy, you'll have to pay Adobe a higher monthly fee for more cloud storage and make sure you have excellent internet upload speeds. But depending on the camera and your shooting style, 20 GB can't even hold an afternoon's session of raw files. You should be shooting raw, for maximum post-processing flexibility and because raw is your original "negative" of sorts. If you're in the US and chose the $9.99 USD/month plan, you have access to: The naming is very confusing and you will find a lot of photographers referring to Classic as the real Lightroom and the new program as "Lightroom CC", "Lightroom Cloudy", or some other more disparaging name.
