Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 - The Missing FAQ: Real Answers to Real Questions Asked by Lightroom Users [Paperback]

Victoria Bampton (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 7, 2010

When you have a Lightroom question, where do you look?

Do you trawl through thousands of web pages looking for the information you need?
Perhaps post on a forum and wait hours for anyone to reply?
Maybe try to figure out the Help files?
From now on, you look right here!

This is the reference book that should have shipped with Lightroom.

Adobe Lightroom 3 - The Missing FAQ is a compilation of the most frequently asked questions, presented in question and answer format so that you can easily find the answers you're looking for.

Whether you're a new user who likes to dive straight into new software and figure it out as you go along, a more experienced user wanting to learn how to get the best out of Lightroom, or you've just got a burning question you'd like answered, this book is for you.

These are real-world answers to real questions asked by real Lightroom users. It not only covers how to do things, but also why they work the way they do.


Lightroom may have a mind of its own... but now you can learn how it thinks.


The story behind the book... and a FREE bonus!

The Adobe Lightroom - The Missing FAQ series was originally intended to be a searchable eBook, however once the book was released to the public, a demand arose for a paperback version too. While some books have a PDF supplement, this book is the other way round - the colour PDF eBook is designed to be the primary book, and this black & white paperback is the supplement. Anyone purchasing the paperback version is invited to contact the author via her website to download the main PDF version worth £14.95 (approx. $25 US*) absolutely FREE.

Editorial Reviews

Review

This edition of the ongoing series, [...] weighing in at over 100,000 words, is jam-packed with tips and information [...]  It's one of the most useful resources we've read on the topic and is well worth the [money]. --Rob Galbraith

From the Author

Hi, my name's Victoria Bampton, and I'm the author of "Adobe Lightroom 3 - The Missing FAQ". 

You probably recognize my name from one of the many Lightroom or other photographic forums I frequent.  I love spending time helping Lightroom users get the best out of the software!

In fact, that's where this book started - certain questions come up repeatedly on the forums, and none of the available books seem to answer them - or if they do, you have to read the entire book to find the answer.

I wanted to be able to recommend an easy reference book - one that you can pick up and skip straight to the answer you're looking for - but there wasn't one. Instead, I sat down and compiled a list of questions directly from the forums, and wrote jargon-free answers as if I was answering a user on the forums. 

This is the information you actually want to know, in an easy reference format.  It's as simple as that!
