Lightroom 2 beta Available
Adobe released the public beta of Lightroom 2, allowing the the photographic community to provide feedback on new features and workflow enhancements. The new version comes with many enhancements on localized corrections, organizational tools, package functionality and more.
Lightroom 2.0 beta is a workflow application that allows photographers to quickly work with raw format images. With Lightroom they can manage all of their photographs; showcase them in print, dynamic slideshows, and interactive Web galleries that are a simple to produce.
Enhancements that can be found in the Lightroom 2.0 beta include the following:
- Localized corrections — Enhance specific areas of an image for unsurpassed nondestructive flexibility and control reminiscent of the traditional darkroom dodge and burn experience.
- Improved organizational tools — Find the images you need quickly and easily.
- Multiple monitor support — Add an additional monitor to efficiently manage photographic workflow and presentation.
- Flexible print package functionality — Create custom layouts containing multiple sizes of a photograph on a single page.
- 64-bit support — Lightroom 2.0 now takes advantage of the latest hardware architectures with improved memory handling and performance.
All Lightroom 1.0 customers are eligible for the Lightroom 2.0 beta, yet all who are new to the app can download the Lightroom 2.0 beta and try it for 30 days. The beta expires on August 31, 2008.
