And all the top plug-in makers now produce Lightroom versions of their tools, so you can use them directly without having to switch to Photoshop first. You can configure any other image-editing program to work as an external editor in just the same way. You don't have to use Photoshop with Lightroom. ![]() In fact, Lightroom and Photoshop work so well together that it's as if they were designed that way. It's true that you'll still need a full-blown editor for more complex tasks involving layers, masks and complex image-manipulation processes, but if you subscribe to Adobe's Photography Plan you get that too, in the form of Photoshop CC. If you're a photography enthusiast, expert or professional you need software which can organise, output and enhance your pictures and, with a few minor quibbles and gripes, Lightroom does that perfectly.

Lightroom's grouping feature can be useful, but it would be more useful still if it was consistent across your whole library. If you look at the same photo in a different collection, it's not grouped with those same images, but could be ungrouped, or grouped with a different set of images. You can group related images together, such as shots taken in a sequence, for example, or different edits of the same image, but that grouping only exists within the Folder or Collection you created it in. If you add one of the group to another Collection, there's no indication it's been grouped with the others.Īnother is Lightroom's stacking system. Annoyingly, while you can group related images in Folders or Collections, top, they only stay grouped in that location. ![]()
