    Subscription only for iPad

    What is most stupid for me is how price is constructed for Europe. In Us is that 9.99 USD. In Europe price is 12.29 EUR (including VAT). Which means they take price in USD, change it to EUR 1:1 and add VAT. So instead of 12 USD (9.99 USD + VAT 21% for my country) price in USD for Europe is 17...

    To DNG or not to DNG?

    For me one big advantage of DNg is that verification. Another good point is that in Windows I can search directly from explorer for keywoards as they are "burned" into DNg. On the other side i am not prepared to throw away my original RAWs, so the only possibility can be DNG which include...

    Some program for renaming and sorting photo

    Hello Selwin, yes I know I can sort it directly in LR. What I am trying to achieve is to have some basic functionality independent on any software. That is why i use (oldschool:-) sorting in directories by date and why i rename photos. Another point why renaming photos is that number part is...

    Some program for renaming and sorting photo

    @Tony - yes, LR do it pretty nice, but I am often out for several days with only laptop where I do not have LR installed. Another point is that I am often using two cameras (mainly DSLR + iphone). So what i need is to put photos from cards and phone to one place, rename them according to time so...

    Some program for renaming and sorting photo

    Hi, maybe someone can help. I am looking for some small program, which will be able to do a batch rename according to metadata (date and time of capture) and sort photos into different folders according to date. If I can create some renaming template it would be awesome, but simple hardcoded...

    Digitally sign photos - certificate, not warermarking

    Thanks Cletus, that DigiMarc looks interesting. Btw. I tested that signing in Zoner and it is not as smooth as I expected. You have to apply signature to photos manually, there is no optin like "sig all exported automatically".

    Digitally sign photos - certificate, not warermarking

    Hello, is there possibility to add a digital signature (I mean digital certificate, not watermark) into exported photos? In LR or by some external software? I am thinking about purchasing certificate because of communication with some offices and it would be nice to use it also for signing...

    Flickr - Free and Paid

    So Flickr just launched new design and also new plans. The old design was quite oldschool, but in fact I liked it more than new one. Time to find alternative?

    pros and cons using DNG

    Hello, yesterday there was a small discussion under one post from Victoria (https://www.facebook.com/lightroomqueen/posts/470530956350614) about DNG verification, which leads me to start this thread. Do you convert your photos from RAW to DNG while importing to Lr? What benefits does have it...

    Exporting with all metadata

    Hello Hugo, I think there is only one reason why keep TIFF - if you make there some tuning in Photoshop (or other external editor). But in this case you should also keep your RAW. There are publishing services in LR, so you can set up something like TIFF export - it will createč bug TIFF...

    Exporting with all metadata

    Hi Hugo, not sure if I understand, but you shoot in RAW, then you develop it, make all adjustments, export to TIFF and then delete that original RAW?

    I have an ide to incorporate iPad into workflow, my idea is to use it for quick check and delete. To be more specific: - download photos from camera to ipad - it is OK, camera kit + photos apps works fine - quickly go throw images and delete those i do not want - after I come home transfer...

    Do you rename photos during import?

    Last year I came to the max number, so numbering started again, that is why I started to rename, I simply do not want to have two photos with same filename.

    Is this a good workflow?

    Check CrashPlan - you can set deleted files are not removed from backup. I was using Mozy for years, pay for the unlimited version. But when they changed their plans I switched to CrashPlan.

    Is this a good workflow?

    I would change a bit the beginning, make some quick deletion before burning to DVD so you are not burning those completely bad pictures.. Also good idea is have another backup than DVD, I use Crashplan which allows you backup to cloud, local disk, USB disk, another your computer etc.)

    Which color space to use

    I am bit confused which color space I should use. I am shooting to RAW. In my DSLR I can set to use sRGB or Adobe RGB. If I understand well LR is using its own RGB similar to ProPhoto RGB. So my guess is that for best results I should in DSLR set Adobe RGB and in LR set color space for exports...

    LR4 - should I uninstall the beta?

    You can specify new location and name. I have my old catalog in ..LR3-catalog\photos\photos.lrcat and new one in LR4-catalog\photos\photos.lrcat so old one is untouched.

    LR4 - should I uninstall the beta?

    Easiest way is to go Help -> Check for updates and download update to LR4. Then only add your purchased key when asked and you are done. Then in that LR you can open your old LR3 catalog and you will be asked if you want to upgrade it to new LR4 catalog. You can choose location of your new catalog.

    Lightroom 4 is out of beta!

    I believe that for EU VAT depend on customers country, for me all prices from Adobe store are including 20% VAT. I think that they have some "handling" costs for both, download and boxed version. And because until 31.3. boxed version can be bought without shipping costs they are selling it for...
