If you're using the Lightroom cloud-based apps, whether on mobile or on the desktop, you'll love the diagrams, showing exactly how to use each tool, hidden gestures, and how to optimize the space and bandwidth that the apps require.
Lightroom Classic Or Lightroom Cc
If you only use the traditional folder-based Lightroom Classic or Lightroom 6 on your desktop, then we have books on those applications too. Adobe Lightroom Classic – The Missing FAQ for the current subscription version of Lightroom Classic. Adobe Lightroom 6 – The Missing FAQ book is also still available for users of the perpetual Lightroom license.
If you like to benefit from the best of both worlds, syncing Lightroom Classic with the Lightroom cloud apps, you'll appreciate having access to both books. Adobe Lightroom Classic – The Missing FAQ focuses on the traditional folder-based desktop app but also discusses how to safely sync with the cloud apps which are covered in Adobe Lightroom – Edit like a Pro. Both books are available as a discounted bundle.
Are the eBooks and paperbacks up to date?
The eBooks are updated on release day for each release.
As you can imagine, it's impossible to republish the paperbacks every time there's new features, as new features are added to the Lightroom cloud ecosystem every couple of months. The paperbacks are sent to the printers every couple of years, when there's enough changes to warrant purchasing a new paperback.
Terraria desktop version history. Adobe Lightroom – Edit Like a Pro went to press in October 2020. As Adobe updates the apps, there is a list of the new features at the back of the eBook format, so you can check what's changed since the paperback was sent to press.
