Camera Raw. Many photographers have flocked to Lightroom as a sort of ‘one-stop-shopping’ application. In addition to the non-destructive editing and processing of digital files, Lightroom is engineered with storage and archiving in mind. Images from your Library can be stored in Collections. With the use of Keyword Tags, management of large digital archives can be a simple task. If you commit to learning and using the Lightroom system you will be able to locate any image in your archive quickly. Other great features include the convenience of browsing images in a slideshow format and the ability to export slideshows. Output options include print and web layout, with automatic gallery creation and upload capability. For those who do not have Photoshop and shy from the steep price or the learning curve, Lightroom is a great solution for archiving and taking your files all the way from the camera to print and/or web.
