Rich-

I have two problems with lightroom (I had LR 3 with my Leica x1 and gave it away).

1- It forces you to make huge catalogs which I don't need or want since I catalog everything with Media Pro.
2- I couldn't see that it did anything that PS didn't do and I have literally dozens of plugins for PS and a very established workflow. For me Bridge is a better viewer since it just views the files and leaves them in place.

As to ACR, my problem is that 6.7 does not support Fuji xpro-1 and that is killing me.

I also have lately waited 6 months to upgrade any adobe product on a mac. The last two upgrades were initial disasters in the first release. I may have to reacant that practice for now.

My real dream would be for adobe to sell ACR as a standalone/plugin. I would gladly pay for ACR.

That said... There HAS to be something I'm missing with LR. Doug has been saying the same thing and i respect the opinion of both of you, but I just can't see it on this one... Please ... Convince me :-)

Cheers,

Tom
