    Book could be better written for beginners. There is a real Mistake
  

*by W***B on Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2012*

Revision #5This book is somewhat inconsistent with LR4 if you are a new-be and follow all suggestions. The chapter on 'Develop' teaches about sliders and methods that if you dl his linked slides use LR3 panels. Is it possible it should NOT have given  that link to the photos used in the book. For those it seems to use  LR3 panels. I wonder about the 5 star reviews. If you read, are new and follow the 'Develop' chapter. say from p158 on, the photos of the sliders, using the recommended photos, do not match what LR4 has. When one tries to sort of do what is being discussed, guessing at the correct slider, you get different results. I really wanted to learn how to avoid PShop and just improve my photos with this. but when using the same pictures Mr Kelby uses, this is extremely confusing. I am trying to use my own pictures. I get the correct sliders, but can't always follow the suggestions. HERE IS WHAT I THINK IS THE ERROR. The file of excellent photos he suggests downloading so you can follow his instructions, were made in LR3 and carry the PNG info of LR3. If you hit the ! next to one of them you can change them all to the new sliders.I received this book thru pre-order(Amazon). I will go through the writing in a second. The book is a large paperback and the pages are not flat. Almost as if it was wet before they printed it. The font is quite small and hard for me to read easily. If the author left out the jokes, maybe there would have been enough space for a larger font. The pages are rather glossy, making it hard to read through the glare. After so many books you would think the physical parts would be perfect. I am going out to buy a book stand. It helps immensely. but it cost more than the book.The book so far does include exactly what I ultimately need. But it does not fully account for "never used Adobe before" people . There are places where the first screen is not what I get until I already have named, or selected or know something I don't. It is close though and maybe the extra work I have to do is more learning for me. The jokes aside, the knowledge is there and presented nicely. Mr. Kelby is an excellent educator. This does ultimately get a beginner what s/he needs for cataloging. The jury is out on 'Develop'. It is also written so it will be a great reference after I am done.  I have had to use some of the Adobe videos to fully understand.I do like the fact that you can skip a section without missing a point. I don't do video but there are no pearls in there about something other than videos, so I can skip what I do not do without missing something else. I have tried every competing company's videos, talked to friends, started several online courses with no learning. This is easy and is put together so I understand what others always said was obvious to them.Wait two months for the next printing, then buy this book.

    This book AND PROGRAM will CHANGE your Photography!
  

*by B***! on Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2015*

Completely CHANGED my workflow!!I had NO IDEA I was missing so much in not using this tool!I simply dismissed Lightroom as a tool for those who did not want to take the time to learn Photoshop, even though the PROS also seemed to love this software. But now that I KNOW what it is intended to do AND how and why the "Pros" use it, I have COMPLETELY CHANGED the way I deal with my Files I shoot and create!I am TRULY an advocate for this just as much as Photoshop now. In fact, I have GREATLY REDUCED how much I even use Photoshop now! I BREEZE though edit and even PRE-Editing of my shoots, and have even considered re-adding certain types of shoots, which involves capturing MANY images, such as Sports coverage, and small events like Quinceanera's because I can process the shoot in a FRACTION of the time! I am totally amazed by it!And as usual, Scott's "cut straight to the chase" style of describing the use is pure genius! I still don't think I would be using Lightroom if I did not briefly skim through this book. I will GREATLY increase my income from my photography work due to this book! Seriously! I would have EASILY paid the original price when it was first released, but now that CS6 and CC is out, this is simply a no-brainer!! I have actually ordered 3 more for friends and my Cousin since they would also be using LR4 version. Thank you Scott and thank you AWESOMEBOOKSUSA!

    Captain America... shield me from Scott!
  

*by P***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2012*

I wish Captain America would have shielded me from Scott's lame jokes again and again. This book has good info, but it took some work trying to ignore his constant barrage of wisecracks and get to the info one needs.There are a lot of pictures and Scott works with the user step by step on how to get different things done. The layout of the book is good and it is an easy read. As a hands-on book this is a good one, though I don't think it is exhaustive as it deals in detail with a specific number of how-to items.I pre-ordered this book and the book came with '#1 BESTSELLING BOOK ON LIGHTROOM' label, which I find hard to believe (unless they are talking pre-order sales). If what they mean is that the author has written earlier bestselling lightroom books, then it should be labelled that way instead of the false claim that this is THE #1 bestselling lightroom book.If you like constant I-got-ya-and-that's-because-I-am-so-smart-and-funny-that-I-myself-can't-handle-it type of jokes by an Author, you will definitely enjoy his writing style. As for me, I have had enough Scott for one lifetime. Overall I don't regret buying it as it helps me get what I need from Lightroom.
