moxy 617 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 What version are people using and which is the best? I've just installed Lightroom 5.7 (full version) and haven't a clue what I'm doing with it. I'm not even sure if it's any use to me? Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiercel 6,986 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Paulus has a version of it, he seemed to find it hard at first, but is getting the hang of it. TC 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Omanyra 2,518 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Use CS5 but don't know why as I only adjust levels, a bit of brightness and contrast and sharpening Just switched from elelments 7.. But hey ho, Im old fashioned and dont like change or trying new things that others get enthusiastic about I only shoot in jpeg too..

mattybugeye 884 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I got lightroom 5.7.1 And photoshop cs6 Crap on both prefer lightroom tho have you just bought it? I'm ok on basics on lightroom but watching loads of YouTube video still finding it confusing but I get confused crossing roads Is it look left or right 1st? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rodp 316 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Used ps7 for years and now got cs2. The later versions will do more but I have always found I can get by. The secret to ps is layers, layers, layers. If in doubt duplicate a layer and turn it off, any adjustments will not affect that layer then and you can just go back to it. Drag the layer you want to duplicate down to the second icon from the right in the layers palette then turn the little eyeball off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
moxy 617 Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 :laugh: I've just got it Matt I suppose it seems ok for the little time I have tinkered with it. Problem being it's quiet a stupid question I've asked. As I don't know what I want from the program , there's no way of knowing if it's the one for me..!!?? Compared to other photoshop versions, is it more dumb arse friendly? If not I can quiet easily get another version Archie. What are you using Quote Link to post Share on other sites
