Book Reviews of The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Book: The Complete Guide for Photographers

Book Review: Helpful But Not In-Depth
Summary: 3 Stars

This book does a fairly decent job of covering the program in it's entirety, and I did learn a few new tips.

However, I feel as if the "Intermediate to Advanced" skill level listed on the back is a bit misleading, unless you're completely new to photography (but why would you be learning a $300 program if you're a newbie shooter?). Lightroom was designed quite well (in my opinion), so a couple hours of just playing around in the program will be sufficient to teach you ~30-50% of what's covered in this book.

This isn't to say I wouldn't recommend it to someone just crossing over to using Lightroom for the first time, I was just expecting it to be more in-depth or advanced. I got my copy for $26.40, but I think the $40.00 suggested retail is a bit high.
