Hi Lightroom!
It's done! I've finally finished rewriting my Lightroom FAQ book and my free Lightroom Quick Start eBook for Lightroom CC and Lightroom 6.
As the name suggests, Adobe Lightroom CC/6 – The Missing FAQ is primarily designed as a conversational FAQ-style reference book, giving you the detailed information you need to make informed choices, whether you’ve been using Lightroom for a few months or a few years. No more pressing buttons without understanding the repercussions!
Unlike most other Lightroom books, this isn’t just the theory of how Lightroom’s supposed to work, but also the workarounds and solutions for the times when it doesn’t behave the way you’d expect.
The book’s available in PDF, ePub, Kindle and color paperback formats. Whether you buy the eBooks or the eBooks & Paperback bundle, you get all three digital formats, so you can read in the way that suits you best.
As if that’s not enough, there’s one more bonus with this book… if you purchase from my website, you get Premium Membership, which includes email support. That's a bargain money can't buy!
A Major Rewrite
For many years, the Adobe Lightroom – The Missing FAQ books have been among the most popular Lightroom books available. I’ve spent the last two years completely rewriting the book, and I'm confident it's the best book I've ever written, so you're definitely going to want to buy this version. (Scroll down for your special release celebration discount.)
You can read about the changes on the A Major Rewrite tab on the book page, but in summary my aims were to:
- Make it easier for less experienced users. If you're not that familiar with Lightroom yet, it can be overwhelming. There are new Fast Track tutorials that weave their way through the book, explaining the basics.
- Keep all of the geeky detail! I know you love the detailed information, so that's still all there and much of it has been rewritten to explain it as clearly as possible, even if you don't consider yourself a geek.
- Make it easier to read cover to cover. The book retains it's FAQ format, but it's now organized into a logical workflow order, so you don't have to skip around the cross-references to find the information you need.
- Make it easier to find the information you need. It's a big book these days, so we've spent weeks creating an extensive new index.
- Make sure it's a complete reference. Over the years, the books had grown organically, but with this rewrite, I've been back through to check that every panel and slider is covered, to ensure you have all the information at your fingertips.
- Color print! At last, the paperback is available in color print! They're still printed on demand, so it's not a glossy paper, but it looks great. I'm expecting the final proof back from the printers in the next couple of days, and all being well, they'll start shipping immediately.
- Integrate your suggestions. I've been back through every suggestion you guys have sent me and integrated as many as possible into the book. A few are still stored up for the next version, but please, keep them coming! It's your book!
- The new features! And finally, of course there's detailed information about all of the new features added in Lightroom CC/6.
