Recommendations for getting the most from Lightroom 5?
Discussion
I've had LR5 as part of the CC photographers package but I've still yet to use it properly.
I wonder if anyone can recommend any good guides? I prefer more technical stuff that authors essentially telling you that their way is best. I'd like to know how to use everything, manage albums etc. I've seen some Adobe Classroom books that are available for the Kindle.
I just thought I'd ask people before taking the plunge

Back in the days of Lightroom 2, I realised (after using the "I don't need a manual" approach) that I probably wasn't getting the best out of the product. I invested in the "Classroom in a Book" workbook; read it and worked through the CD exercises. Quite an investment in time and effort, but I've never regretted it. It changed my whole post-processing workflow and I can't imagine working without Lightroom now.
There's loads of similar publications. I'd probably go for one of Scott Kelby's if I was doing it today.

Adam Lerner over at Brooklyn Photo Works does some good guides.
I don't think he's made many LR5 videos yet though.

I'm still using Lightroom 2! Is it worth upgrading to the current version?Gassing Station | Photography & Video | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
