For the free upgrade see this link: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/upgrade-policy-product-announcement.html

I bought Lightroom 3 when it was on sale 2/15/2012.  We will see if I qualify for the free upgrade.


Hmm...I don't have any products that qualify for Adobe upgrades....never owned anything by Adobe before.<P>
Well, to start with, guess I'll have to start with what I have on my mac (iMovie, iPhoto)....and the open source stuff I have on Linux.

Hmm...I have a friend of mine who's kids are starting college soon...maybe I'll get an educational discount purchase through them...
:)



Thanks for all the replies so far.....

I downloaded Camera Raw 6.7 and got it to work with my existing CS5 setup. 

I got one weird feature, which is that the Adobe Standard camera profile interpreted blown out areas of high ISO concert photos (stage was lit by a mix of LED lights but the blown out areas were mostly bright whitish, purple and blue) as a shocking super bright blue.  It looked like the blue used for the shadow clipping warning. 

Saving the photo as a JPEG preserved the blue effect, which was not present in the JPEGs of the same picture made by the camera itself (I shot with separate cards, RAW on one and JPEG on another).

Thus I guessed that it was a bug within the Adobe Standard profile, and I switched the profile to Camera Standard (or Faithful, Portrait or any other profile), which solved the problem.

Here's the photo that resulted.  The hair and blown out area on the singers right hand were the areas most affected.

Works fine too.  Tried it this week-end and seem to work fine with mkIII files...

Is Lightroom a stand alone product, or is it an add-on for Adobe Photoshop? What is the difference between the two products?

I have read about it at Adobe...and honestly, I can't tell really what it does better or different that Photoshop??

Do you need both? Is LR just a subset of what Photoshop offers?

LOL...right now, I'm trying to see if I can borrow my friend's kids student ID so I can maybe use that to order the CS Production suite..and LR...and just get it all for a reasonable price and be done with research and just play with it all.

$1600 vs $449 sure makes it worth while to try to pursue that student discount route...

SWEET!

I'm thinking now..to start with, I'm going to go with Apeture (only $80)...and with FCPX....since with update, it appears to do most everything needed, and Red Giant is soon to have their plugins ported....and it is only $300.

Took a while, but I was approved for the free upgrade. :D
