Since I did not get expensive FIOS and am staying with snail internet – I treated myself to Lightroom 5. No, of course I didn’t NEED an upgrade. I WANTED an upgrade. (How did I get the software considering my connection? Simple, I used a computer in the lobby that has FIOS kick-ass speed. But for some reason the “house” WiFi is also snail speed. Not sure why that is.
One of LR 5’s major new features is the perspective adjustment tool. It does a pretty good job on something that is easy to fix. I doubt it will do such a fine job on things that are more difficult. I’ll test that tomorrow.
But, the main reason I wanted LR 5 is “Smart Preview” meaning I can edit photos that are in my collection – but are stored on drives that are not plugged into the Airness.
I am also going to treat myself to a new underwater camera. Mine drowned last winter.
