Can Lightroom 2 do this

OK I understand that lr2 is non destructive editing.
Here's what I want to do:
Scan in a drawing with pastel like colors in tiif file format.
Open the scann drawing in lr2 and crop to certain size and save into a format that is non destructive
Print to a pro inkjet printer.
TIA

While I agree that Lightroom can do this ... isn't a $200 piece of software overkill if all you want to do is change the dimensions of your photo? I think it is, and while cheaper alternatives (like the freeware Irfanview) exist which are "destructive", proper use would prevent your original from being changed in any way. Your emphasis on "destructive" vs "non-destructive" could lead you to pay $200 when a free piece of software will do exactly what you want with the exact same quality results.

Can lightroom do what iview mediapro does?

hi:
1. i've been using iview mediapro for a... long time, but d/t various reasons, i'm thinking about utilizing lightroom for the DAM functions.
2. with iview, i can burn a DVD with many photos--> place the contents of that DVD into iview and then iview will know where each foto is located (ie by the name of what i called my DVD or external drive etc...). can lightroom do this?
3. any users experience with importing iview media catalogs to lightroom?
thanks for the info. harry shin

LR will tell you the folder name of offline images. This means that you need to create a folder with a unique name on your DVD or external drive and to put the images there.
I remember a LR user complaining who put all images in the root folder of the DVD. LR is not (yet) smart enough to use the CD Label if there are no folders on the external media but it works very well if you consider this information
regards
Chris

Ok, well you'll need to do something like this. Now this part is a little dependent on your database server:
       try {
            Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
            Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection(
                                                       "jdbc:mysql://{database-server}/{database-name}:3306?user={username}&password={password}");
            Statement Stmt = c.createStatement();
            int count = Stmt.executeUpdate(cmd);
            if(count>0) {
                 System.out.println("count: " + count);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
    }That was some sample code for a MySQL database.
Note that the applet can only contact the server that is was loaded from, so you might want to do a getCodeBase() or something like that to get the server address.
Hope this is helpful.

Thanks YKaan,
I do not like and do not want to pay monthly, also I do not need Photoshop just want lightroom. I want to know if I can just buy and download Lightroom or if I buy the retail package I can just have the program as standalone product.

Hi, I have Lightroom 4, but it does not support the new 10-30 pd lens for my Nikon 1. It is supported in LR5. Can I download this lens profile and install in LR4?

Do you have the latest camera raw installed for Photoshop? If so, you can find the profiles in /Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0/Nikon/ . Lightroom should recognize them if you move them into your home directory's Library folder in the exact same folder structure (but in the Library folder in your home directory). This is assuming you are using Mac OS X. No clue where these files would be on Windows. If you don't have Photoshop, you can install Camera Raw using the combined installer with DNG converter which is a free download from Adobe. This should (I think) give you the profiles in that exact location without owning Photoshop.

Can Adobe Photoshop Lightroom do this?

I need an adobe product that will digitally remove certain items in an urban landscape, such as: removing telephone polls and wiring, stop signs, etc., but still retain the colorization and detail of the overall image. Can Adobe Photoshop Lightroom do this?

the current version of lightroom can remove spots in the image meaning it uses a circular mask. However the beta version has been promoted to having a brush type mask making it easier to remove things like wires. I do not know when the beta version will be released to the public as a release candidate.

The lens correction option in Lightroom 5 is for the Tamron 28-75mm lens, rather than the correct Tamron 18-270mm, even though it's correct in the Library metadata. How can I fix this?

Are you shooting RAW or JPG or some of both?
When you say it won't let you change it, does that mean there are no lens profiles at all, or no lens profiles that match your lens? If you set Auto or Default you can select any lens you want from the list of manufacturers and profiles and then the Setup says Custom. Of course this lens may not be the correct lens, but saying you cannot change it suggests there are no manufacturers or lenses listed on the dropdowns.
Most lens profiles are for RAW only, so if you shoot a mixture of RAW and JPG then for the JPGs the lens profile may not exist. If you are enabling Lens Profiles and have Auto or Default set and it chooses the wrong one then it may just be choosing the top one in the list for Canon if the specific profile doesn't exist for JPGs.
If you are shooting raw and the profile does exist then you should be able to correct the situation: In the list select the correct profile, then choose Setup: Save New Lens Profile Defaults, and select Default from the Setup instead of Auto and it should pick the correct lens every time. Assuming it does do that, then you can set Enable Lens Profiles = checked and Setup: Default and set those as your new Lightroom Defaults and it should pick the right lens.
If you are shooting JPG then the lens profile may well not exist and there's nothing you can do about that except not shoot JPG. If you feel like it you can hack a raw profile to be a jpg profile and put that hacked copy in the user-lens-profile area and LR will see it.

Certainly one could rewrite or modify the Desktop application to have additional options available or even a provision that would allow for an infinite amount of settings. If you wish, you may register your thoughts with Apple here:

Can Lightroom render 1:1 Previews when importing my Photos?

Q: Can Lightroom render 1:1 Previews when importing my Photos?
FAQ revised 25 April 2009
Ans: Prior to version 1.3 Lightroom did not support 1:1 preview rendering during import, the actual options for Initial Previews being: Embedded or Standard. However, more recent versions allow four types of previews to be rendered during import (i.e. Minimal, Embedded & Sidecar, Standard,and 1:1). It's also worth noting the following on Lightroom import behaviour:
1. Minimal (Lightroom default) or Embedded & Sidecar is by far the quickest method for getting your photos into the Lightroom catalog. However, the lack of Standard, which is the minimum that Lightroom can actually work with, means that the application will render standard-sized on demand (i.e. as thumbs/photos become visible within the photo Content area). Asking Lightroom to undertake this task at the same time as you're trying to use the application will result in sub optimal performance.
2. Importing your photos with the Standard preview selected within the Import dialog will take longer than 1 above, but on completion Lightroom will already have previews that match the minimum requirement for working in the Library. Assuming that you won't be looking at every image at 100% (i.e 1:1) then this preview size will allow you to quickly review, rate, label, even make quick colour/tone adjustments, etc the photos within the Library module. If you need to see a photo at 100% then Lightroom will render that preview on demand (while it's being rendered you'll see the "Rendering Preview" overlay appear at bottom of preview). Note that when using a 23" or larger monitor it to is best to set the Standard sized previews so that they are rendered at 2048 pixels
3. Importing your photos with the 1:1 preview size selected will result in Lightroom taking even longer to complete the import process than would have been the case if standard-sized had been chosen. 1:1 previews also take up significantly more disk space than standard-sized.
If you're not going to be working on the photos immediately after import but do need to get them into Lightroom as quickly as possible, then the best option would be to choose import option 1. Once the photos have been imported choose either Render Standard-sized Previews or Render 1:1 previews from Library module Library>Previews menu.

When I search these forums for "CFCopyFormattingDescription", I find a bunch of crash reports posted that look almost exactly the same as mine. It appears there's a bug in iPhoto, perhaps when reading metadata from the JPG file (readRawTiffPropsFromPath).
Interestingly, the Preview app can open and display the file just fine. I even opened the inspector and it showed all of the TIFF and exif metadata just fine, no crash. The file also opens just fine on Windows.
Now how do we get the attention of the iPhoto development team so I can send them the photos, have them reproduce the crash, and fix it?

In the printer driver (accessed through the Page Setup button) set the Advanced tab to borderless. Then in the right hand panel under Layout set all the margins to zero.

Can Aperture do this?

First, this post is not to flame Aperture. It is intended to demonstrate features that need improvement, in an effort to bring the feature set up.
Aperture and Lightroom both have cloning/spotting tools.
IMO the clone/heal tool in LR is superior.
Can Aperture do this?
Original jpg straight from D2x:
Added a dark vignette, desaturated all colors and brought back just orange and some red for a quick non destructive hand tint, but the orange powercord, being orange stuck out..
11 healing spots and one clone spot in LR:
Results:
Close up:
GRANTED, PS/CS3 would do a better job, but IMO this is good enough and only took a minute. Plus it kept me out of PS/CS3

Using the color adjustments in Aperture to can selectively desaturate all colors and increase the saturation of red and yellow to get a similar effect.
I do agree that the patch tool is not even close to the one in Lightroom. I miss as well the vignette tool in Aperture.
When adjusting a wedding for example a proper patch tool and a vignette tool will save all the round trips to photoshop when creating proofs or web galleries to show to customers.
If we had some kind of quick mask and a buttom to allow new adjustments on an area of the image will save lots of round trips to photoshop in final images. For example, need to light up someone's face in a photo. Select this quick mask tool, paint on the face, press on the buttom that would say 'new adjusment area' and use levels to lighting it up. Would be perfect for me.
