 Outstanding Book September 30, 2008

Even with the upgraded material, it goes beyond what could have been added to the LR1 version. Excellent reading, easy to understand, perfect examples and photos.
 Good and comprehensive - Evening scores again September 17, 2008
As with his Photoshop books Martin Evening again wrote a book that is comprehensive and covers most everything for photographers from beginners to pro. Being on the consultation and testing staff for Lightroom 2 made Martin somebody who knows. And his background as a professional photographer makes all information really worthwhile.
Worth every penny! September 10, 2008
I missed out on Martin's first book and waited for his second to cover Lightroom 2. Easy to understand. Steps through every process and covers all the basics as well as complex concepts. Will suit a novice or experienced Lightroom 1 user, who just wants to know about the new things in version 2. Highly recommended and a must if you want to utilise all the great things the program offers!
 The best of what's out there now (until Kelby) September 9, 2008
3 out of 6 found this review helpful
My concern going in was that this book had been rushed to market to beat Kelby and others to the punch. I thought that perhaps my concerns were warranted when I found a typo in the book's Forward and a 76 word (!) run on sentence to start the Introduction. However, the rest of the book does not appear rushed and is reasonably informative.
Like many of you who would read this review I was anxious to get some guidance after upgrading to LR 2.0. I bought the Luminous Landscape video (it looked like they were learning LR on the fly as they were taping the video even though I know Schewe was involved throughout). At the time I purchased this book Lynda.com had not released their LR 2.0 course so this book was the only game in town.
I have many of Kelby's books and I like his style both in print and in video so I am looking forward to getting it when it's available. For now, this book will tell you more than you already know and it's a serviceable primer if you're starving for info like I was.
Great book! September 9, 2008

I've been using Lightroom since 1.0 and I've been loving it since the first time I used it. However, it is still useful to have a book to use as reference material when you are trying to do something in particular and cannot figure out how to properly do it. This book provides a thorough in-depth look at Lightroom and I highly recommend it.
