Excellent Product: 
I bought Lightroom mainly to help me organize pictures and to touch pictures up before printing and framing. LR did not let me down in those respects. LR is very flexible, providing the functionality for you, but allowing you to customize it to fit your own work flow.
I organized over 8000 photos that had no organization prior to this in only a few hours time. LR automatically sorted the photos for me into the folder arrangement I wanted. So, those few hours were spent tagging the 8000 photos with...more info
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 Upgrade:
So far I really enjoy using this program. I was currently using only the program that came with my camera (Digital Photo Professional) from Canon. I feel I have much more control using Lightroom 2. Looking forward to finding a good tutorial book or tape on Lightroom 2 to help me further my skills and to help me take advantage of the complete program.

It is good software ,however it does not go far enough.As a prepress professional I would like to see a ruler in the develop module,also there is no provision to "dim" your photo it's all scale to fit which I believe simply resamples thereby losing quality.I now go directly to photoshop dim to size I want then return to Lightroom to

Yawn: 
I guess I just don't get it, I don't see why you need this if you use CS3 or CS4 with Bridge. It's just a different workflow. I actually find the fact that edits made in lightroom dictate certain options not being available in CS4 (mainly save as JPEG comes to mind) very annoying. I have pretty much ditched this thing and use CS4 and Bridge together. I know I must be missing something because alot of photographers swear by this tool.
