The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book For Digital Photographers From Scott Kelby Available For Pre-orders - A New, Updated Version Of Most Popular Lightroom Book In The World
Since Lightroom first launched, Scott Kelby's The Lightroom Book for Digital Photographers has been the world's #1 best-selling Lightroom book. In this latest version for Lightroom 3, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book for Digital Photographers, Scott uses his same step-by-step, plain-English style and layout to make learning Lightroom easy and fun.
Scott doesn't just show you which sliders do what. Instead, by using the following three simple, yet brilliant, techniques that make it just an incredible learning tool, this book shows you how to create your own photography workflow using Lightroom:
1) Scott shares his own personal settings and studio-tested techniques. He trains thousands of Lightroom users at his "Lightroom Live!" tour and knows first hand what really works and what doesn't.
2) The entire book is laid out in a real workflow order with everything step by step, so you can begin using Lightroom like a pro from the start.
3) What really sets this book apart are the last two chapters. This is where Scott dramatically answers his #1 most-asked Lightroom question, which is: "Exactly what order am I supposed to do things in, and where does Photoshop fit in?" Plus, this is the first version of the book that includes his famous "7-Point System for Lightroom," which lets you focus on mastering just the seven most important editing techniques.
The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book for Digital Photographers is the first and only book to bring the whole process together in such a clear, concise, and visual way.

• Import photographs with ease and sort them according to your workflow
• Create and manage a personal image library
• Apply tonal adjustments to multiple images quickly
• Integrate Lightroom with Adobe Photoshop

2 Free Photoshop Lightroom Videos From Martin Evening
Here are two free Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 video tutorials from Martin Evening.
The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book: Noise Reduction Video
This tutorial shows some of the key benefits of working with the new improved noise reduction sliders in Lightroom 3 that are available when using Process Version 2010.
The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book: Auto Lens Correction Video
See how Lightroom 3 allows you to apply auto lens profile corrections directly to raw and non-raw images in Lightroom.
At the Peachpit Press site you can find a sample chapter, The Lens Corrections Panel. In it Martin discusses how to use the Lens Corrections panel in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3, including how to correct lens vignetting and chromatic aberration. From the intro:
"Lens vignetting is a problem that’s commonly encountered with wide-angle lenses and is particularly noticeable if the subject you are photographing contains what should be an even shade of tone or color. For example, you’ll become more aware of such lens vignetting problems when you are photographing a landscape with a large expanse of clear blue sky, or you are photographing a subject against a plain, light colored backdrop. It is in these types of situations that you are more likely to notice a darkening of the image toward the corners" Read the full article, The Lens Corrections Panel.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 was designed from the ground up with digital photographers in mind, offering powerful editing features in a streamlined interface that lets photographers import, sort, and organize images.

Master this workflow application quickly and completely by working from beginning to end or just skip to the task you need right now. It's all covered, everything from importing, organizing and processing images, to managing and showcasing your images - whether it's one shot or an entire shoot.
At the Peachpit Press site you can read a sample chapter, Organizing and Reviewing Images. From the intro: While it’s tempting to immediately start fixing and tweaking the exposures of your photos, time spent in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom's Library module organizing and reviewing photos will be worth it. Nolan Hester explains how and why to use the Library module.
This chapter covers — Dimming the Lights, Stacking Photos, Flagging Photos, Using Ratings and Labels, Using the Compare and Survey Views, Removing or Deleting Photos, Putting It All Together.
It’s tempting to jump ahead to the Develop module and immediately start fixing and tweaking the exposures of your photos. But the time spent offers a hidden bonus: Deleting poor images (explained on page 88) will leave you with far fewer— and much better — images once you finally turn to adjusting their exposures. Read the full sample chapter, Organizing and Reviewing Images.
