Overall, Lightroom is polished, efficient and superbly equipped to meet the needs of photographers. These issues are few and far between, though. There may be some sense to this but I’d like to have the option. The software doesn’t allow duplicate files to be imported twice when they’ve been copied to a new location.
There are comprehensive search and filter facilities but I’d prefer more flexible options to sort the library. Folders are shown in tree view if they're imported that way, but otherwise it's by disk and then alphabetically. There are a couple of minor irritations to the interface that remain unresolved. Then again, the Creative Cloud Photography Plan bundles Lightroom and Photoshop CC for £103 per year, so going for a subscription rather than a perpetual license may not be such a bad idea. It seems pretty stingy that people who buy Lightroom outright are excluded. They also get access to the Lightroom iOS and Android apps that provide basic editing and synchronisation of Collections with the web and the desktop application.
Flash has now been replaced by HTML 5, but the ability to host them on Adobe’s servers is only available to Creative Cloud subscribers. Lightroom’s web export facilities felt fairly redundant, with exports in Flash format and users left to their own devices to find a suitable web hosting service. ^ Combine graduated filters with brush strokes to define the areas you want to process
