    I have Photoshop CS6 - Do I Need Lightroom?

    1. With one version of the new Lightroom (Classic for desktop)- your files / photos are on the PC 2. Even if you bought an old LR6 DVD I don't expect it would update when you installed it - probably 2012 vintage!

    I have Photoshop CS6 - Do I Need Lightroom?

    I have same issue - BUT I convert my olympus ".ORF" files (which PS6 and LR6 cannot read) to .dng files using the adobe converter - these .dng files can be read in ALL versions of Photoshop and Lightroom without loss of quality.

    I have Photoshop CS6 - Do I Need Lightroom?

    Yes - you cannot buy Lightroom as a standalone application any more. I still use the (old) stand alone lightroom for cataloging / initial development. I only go to CS6 if i need cloning / object removal etc. I am recognising more and more the LR6 and CS6 are getting "long in the tooth"! The...

    Old Standalone Adobe LR6 doesn't now show which files have been edited in a Lightroom folder?

    Sounds useful. Wasn't aware that could be done! Thanks. Found somewhere else - do a "reset" on Lightroom, Just hold down Alt and Shift (Windows) / Opt and Shift (Mac) while opening Lightroom and it’ll ask whether to reset the preferences. The information I wanted to display then reappears!

    Old Standalone Adobe LR6 doesn't now show which files have been edited in a Lightroom folder?

    Untill recently each file that I edited in LR6 show a symbol for cropping or other adjustments in its bottom LH corner. Now it doesn't show anything so I don't know which files to export! and which ones I have ignored. Have I changed some setting - I cannot find out what it is? Help please...

    Multiple Exposures (e.g. 5) with the OM-D E-M5 Mk lll

    Thanks - not quite the same as the Canon process. With my Canon 5D Mk iii I can take many images and add them all together "live". With the Olympus OM-D I can only add 2 images "live". Then I can add further images from the card to the 2 frame image I have originally created - these are added...

    Multiple Exposures (e.g. 5) with the OM-D E-M5 Mk lll

    Tried this (it's in the downloaded manual) but must be stupid as it doesn't seem to work for me!

    Multiple Exposures (e.g. 5) with the OM-D E-M5 Mk lll

    Hello Fellow Owners I am trying out various things on the M5. I can only seem to take a multiple exposure of 2 images - the original RAW file and one double. How can I say take 5 extra exposures along with the orignial RAW. I only seem to get the option of 2 files (2f). Am i missing something...

    Time To Update.

    If you convert your RAW images to DNG files using the Adobe converter, it is then possible to edit even the newest camera RAW images using Lightroom 6.14.
