Lightroom 2 User Interface
Monday, March 2nd, 2009 running time 19:39
Photographer Frederick Johnson is back to discuss more Lightroom 2 features and a detailed tour of the new user interface. Learn best practices in making your image search and cataloging experience most efficient.
Organize and view images within the Library
The Lightroom 2 application is flexible and conforms to the way you like to work. When in the Library screen, your left column contains source information of where your images are located. The middle column is displays the images in grid mode, full screen mode, compare mode, or survey mode. In the right column, you can set instructions to modify the images of your choice.
Best practices for image searches
Search results are improved by applying flags and keywords are associated with your images. In addition, you can also search by metadata, file name, title, caption, and more. This functionality was also included in Lightroom 1, but the search interface has been improved in this release, also allowing the user to save search results for future use.
Image modification in the Develop panel
In the Develop panel, you get a column on the left where your presets hold image correction instructions. You can apply and see changes to your photographs here. A new feature in Lightroom 2 is a non-destructive vignetting filter, included to darken edges of your photograph for artistic purposes.
To try Lightroom 2 without buying, you can download a 30 day demo from Adobe at no cost.

" Alive thanks to have you -- at twice the last few weeks afterwards they know that it's only a minute ago and you're here but yeah Hollywood. We actually don't yeah. Don't amendment inside secrets. Big but these these smart or music that they know what's going -- so. What's new line."
" so in the last episode couple minutes ago or -- of Internet radio and there. You know commitments that we left it up viewers are talking about the -- you can use virtual copies within my room to. -- And then I'll forking off and for me you know I typically just do different crops cousin and print this -- four by six. And then help or another on any by -- and then -- one what was whatever you know but it doesn't matter you could create another virtual copy and make a black and white version you can create this new version you can created virtual copy them. It's endless it just keep. Creating multiple versions of the same image into your secret -- people look at. But -- but its its good to me because you know I don't know I'm sure you remembered -- you there in the early early. Early days of Photoshop when that bit your personal copies were saying that -- yeah. -- the -- layered. No layers no layers no nothing like veterans -- and you have to have a really good at naming scheme in your hand most of my views were born yet really and those days. While with the tantamount -- you. That is still going to learn."
" Let me cancel were backed into the grid mode had the GT to go back to accurate vote -- You don't reckon grid mode so we're back and a quick collection that we were -- were creating before. So local -- in my previous import solar. So this my shooting at random so this is something that what I wanted to talk about this time and so going going into the images in the virtual copy -- Don't talk about -- some ways you can organizer images and also some ways that you can view your images while you're in light room. The application is amazingly flexible. Ensor conforms to the way that you want to -- gives you multiple ways to do different things and there's no generally. No right way or wrong way to do stuff in the application. So if we go in here. -- so here's our library so justice sort of hammer home a virtual copy or the the quick collection peace again. For go to and say you know want to pick this one I can click that. Click that little circle it's in my quick collection an hour increments of up to seven again over here and it's an unlikely collection is done. I'm back in my freedom still in my previous import folder here some a certain way let his organizers from left. To -- so on the left is sort -- your source it's everything you're dealing with -- you're working with. All your folders on your quick collections are smart collections all that stuff is on the left side. In the middle is your stuff you know it's whatever you select on the left sides -- shows up in the middle and then on the right side is where you control what you're gonna do to -- stuff. So you're stuff you know we use the source of your stuff you're stuff and then you know what you're the changes are -- to your stuff. In the in the middle here is the library now so this is world news prove the -- of the application is Hamlet in light into. -- this library filter bar up here. So in the library -- kind of like. -- Mac OS-X -- we have the column view and click and then it shows you whatever you clicked on and you click on some things keep going down that way. That's what this bars they give you whole Lotta power so for example -- click context here. I can search for any it's like iTunes and clicking clicking here and drilled out and search for any metadata that have. Applied to my images of can really get about key wording and all that stuff you -- really you know see you keyword and all the picture. All the pictures of year daughter for example with her first name -- first name and then have it. Display this display those images right going to be limited to his collection with them for everything -- it's limited to whatever you selected on the -- okay so if you say it you know all photographs here it was and we have very small library here -- 111. But if we clicked on that it would search just knows or if you're just wanted to look him when he your collections so you just do one -- and you wanted to search just to mention you can do that. So that's us and then the text here is it defaults to any searchable field. But you can see these of the fields that you can have a search on new title caption keywords meant indeed exit all that stuff file name. You know and you can just search and that's that gives you an amazing amount of power this was in light room. One but it was in a different area that engineers sort of consolidated everything into this area recently -- it easy to find this is right at the top all the time click it and go. The next of that is attribute. So if you click on that. This is where your flagging. You can drill down by flagging status. And so you know if you're one of those and again this is this dependent on how you want to work you know a lot of people don't use flags and just use keywords. Good better best or whatever. You can do that but it gives you the option of of making a system that works for you. Selecting going in and search you show me all the ones that are flag are the ones with. Certain number of ratings here or that I have tag with a certain color except you know. Copy exactly so show me only the virtual copies. I can search for that just because I don't want to mess and anything answer to show me all the virtual copies. Partial you know the originals so yeah that yes they really thought listeners they could find what you mean. And then metadata. Is sort of a powerful way. -- in my opinion so what this lets you do is these columns appear then you can had any number of columns. These of the put the default as we just installed as applications so this this is the default cities. With the click on this. I -- and add a column to this I can go higher go flat descending to this but if I go and to. This area right here where the name as I can change this column to some other attribute. So I -- today. You know city yeah all of that you know what aperture was it worth you know want to search and aperture ISO speed. Or any of these things and what what it's doing is right now in the give. So these are all photos or -- in 2003. With my old Canon -- Andy Burnham. In this is the range of lenses that is represented by all the photos in here so I can say. You know show me only images that -- with this you know 22130. Zoom lens. And if I have labels assigned to these -- show that as well. You can -- date ranges you can save searches so you know all the time that whenever you issues -- you issue that you want to CD images that -- with this particular camera. Shall and you do serial numbers so you could -- Sony -- three or four attendees are 345. -- you know. -- is assuming all the photos that were so with this fighting this particular serial number using this particular lands. With this -- them so if you have multiple shooters and issues it's a wedding issues. -- says okay. You know our show -- all Joe's photos you know as Joe was at the reception okay now -- all of Mary's photos you know you could do because -- with the same camera. You get split him up that way and then manipulate them and organize -- that way. Yeah and then so that's the power and you can click none to get rid of that. So that's thats what you you know you organize on the left here. You can drilled out and find the photos that you want in the middle. And then on the right is where you do things now down at the bottom here. We have noticed these -- that the icons here right now we're in grid mode. Who wanted to go into full screen mode on this one we can click that takes -- in the full screen. And click fiscal American degree in my own Dixon line is a computer mode thing so like it. -- can shift click. Two images here virtual copy regular copy from one. Click that and view them side by side. And multiple you know you know manipulate. The view of you know so looking to solve the selecting candidates so if you had multiple selected so -- down in this this. The toolbar here -- hit the shift key and add to this election. I can. Click my -- so we're compare -- we're showing those first two. But by going to survey mode initially all the ones that I selected so this is this is useful so for us president usually client and you want to."
" Show them similar images and then drill down to just that -- shouted you're gonna work. So I can -- them all these images and then once they say you know that that one on the right there is really dark and I don't like that -- you can click on that has the X and it drops out. So he can keep going and said okay oh that one's not so good -- You know its very fluid movement of the waiting designed it's obvious that presented very. Very fluently and you get down to the two heroes that you like and you're done so we'll kill that one. And there we go and we go back into grid mode or fooled -- you know it that we can continue working. And so we're we're doing all the -- the library most kinds of this is this is library. This is sort of how you organize and get to. Yet what you want to get two was developed right select it has built in a left to right like it's at the beginning with a left or right sort of metaphor. Develop. Is the next went over to the right from library so when you get down to an area where a year you're happy okay this is the -- we're gonna work with. -- include the developed. Tab there and now we're in developed so now on the left where have all our precepts went from ships with a number of preset that you can. Apply to your image imagine previewed right as you roll over of these it's. Instantly going to show you what it's gonna look like if you click that you know itself by saying there's -- black white high contrast a click that fell in applies. To Miami so give me a starting point. This is and this is this is really key here because what's happening. There's light room didn't. Edit or manipulate any of those pixels on that image. All it did was apply settings. Preset settings -- preset. So if you look over here on the right here you can see that it added exposure draft recovery way down the satellite's -- here. Blacks you know brightness it just means these changes to give you that look. You can make this yourself so you could sit down there. And drag this lawyers to create. You know the -- by the way specific look of horror specific set of pre sets. Insane them very Chinese text files. Anyone else get them load them in here and go -- they can have a very important he's got an active -- you can -- starting point and then -- exactly so I say -- like this black and -- high contrast. -- this image salute salute you -- exposure back a little -- you know that's good but you know to bring my blacks vote from going for some really crazy look here. I -- do that right. Now I can go in and click. Click migrating into it and look what happened to bring it home again yeah look at it that it's still there. That I can click on that. But if you remember for the original and it didn't -- don't break it to government you can get rid of it if you want you can keep on in this case we get rid of it so delete it. Bill it's gone there's my sky again so for this particular image maybe who wanted to. You know come down. We'll get out of that we'll turn him. Of them -- So this is a new feature that's enlightened to. So in light room line we had the future of that -- lens correction so that you kid. Basically. Counteract it have been inning effect of some lenses you know the darkening of the edges so you could drag it to lighten those current account erected. Those dark images. We'll -- to edit the the feature to not only do that so -- can go and if you know this is a cropped image. Problem is when I drag this down the corners of this image are off the screen. Right so you're not seeing effect of that that. Crop or the the darkening of those edges. A lot of photographers were using this as a creative way you know so instead of using it to counteract. The -- of this is they are actually purposely targeting edges degree diminutive the right so. Don't we recognize that created the post -- in yet tools down here. So no matter where your crop has -- and when you click on these and drag him down it will Albania. Melbourne opinion -- damage the thing that and you can also control the midpoint. It around this with other eccentric etc. if yes and again all completely non destructive. And you can keep going keep going and keep."
" you know it's all about. If you when it rate -- NFL's that you create multiple -- of legacy that I -- that I try to keep it really simple and I'm doing myself oh you know go -- import. Edit my shoot down get my heroes he and then get take one of those are multiple those and start editing and you know make my different. Versions from there of the different crops that I'm gonna eventually print and then. That's it. -- Fantastic that was -- to -- point and shoot anymore it's a whole new world that we got from yeah absolutely you absolutely you know and it's a it's a light fast application. The cool thing about you know light room is you can try it out right so you you don't have to say you know and it does work flow already and you know as a recession and on -- as mine damn about that wouldn't. Go by yards -- download it for thirty days and simply wouldn't do all the stuff affect what we've been playing what here's a trial threatened room and having a machine you're tell you which is downloaded through a couple images and there and of them knowing all of the power play and and it worked and it works it works best."
" Well because they're so small that that it is. Very -- within -- information he's got a lot of it has to be seen as program is. Got a lot of stuff going on new -- going to an experiment inclusion of -- see what happens. That is gonna break it is going to go to bland against this and actually applying these fixes to the that he argued that really breaking hard either it is. Playing with the see how it looks we've got what you want well we've got a big finish. Yeah it is and they're not -- out but yeah as well leave you with a class things so the only time again only time that you that light room. Bakes the changes into the image is when you export so when you print it of course -- them ink. Or when you export JPEG or something like that to go to the website and give to somebody or tip to take to service bureau something like that an excellent service bureaus and actually if you."
" could create a good thing there is bureau hours of it right there -- it. It's bad but yes of it and you know when you when you export it to take it someplace else to get out of the applications that almost changes because it's remembering those changes as a math recipe that is applying really fast to your raw data. When you say okay it would take about it makes it and then gives you file."
" With those changes and -- It was something hoping to learn something that and it -- anything you'd like to see on the show email me -- certain vision via com. And you pick up on that revisions -- com both platforms. We can to a discussions about this show. Didn't and public to go to -- incredible program but you -- it but it plays that it play some photographers use that threatened at all photographers -- again not be written out for this incredible background that well I keep looking back it's kind security and it's got there. If you what you're but the effect that this mainstream. Remember this annual stuff to me federally designed to Burton's visions we got commenting back I should be twelve maybe accidentally pixels and save this JPEG. Hope you learn something remember play this isn't working this is playing looks like we're with a little buttons that. It's -- that's going to sit there and play. See you next week."

Right so you're not seeing effect of that that. Crop or the the darkening of those edges. A lot of photographers were using this as a creative way you know so instead of using it to counteract. The -- of this is they are actually purposely targeting edges degree diminutive the right so. Don't we recognize that created the post -- in yet tools down here. So no matter where your crop has -- and when you click on these and drag him down it will Albania. Melbourne opinion -- damage the thing that and you can also control the midpoint. It around this with other eccentric etc. if yes and again all completely non destructive. And you can keep going keep going and keep."
" you know it's all about. If you when it rate -- NFL's that you create multiple -- of legacy that I -- that I try to keep it really simple and I'm doing myself oh you know go -- import. Edit my shoot down get my heroes he and then get take one of those are multiple those and start editing and you know make my different. Versions from there of the different crops that I'm gonna eventually print and then. That's it. -- Fantastic that was -- to -- point and shoot anymore it's a whole new world that we got from yeah absolutely you absolutely you know and it's a it's a light fast application. The cool thing about you know light room is you can try it out right so you you don't have to say you know and it does work flow already and you know as a recession and on -- as mine damn about that wouldn't. Go by yards -- download it for thirty days and simply wouldn't do all the stuff affect what we've been playing what here's a trial threatened room and having a machine you're tell you which is downloaded through a couple images and there and of them knowing all of the power play and and it worked and it works it works best."
" Well because they're so small that that it is. Very -- within -- information he's got a lot of it has to be seen as program is. Got a lot of stuff going on new -- going to an experiment inclusion of -- see what happens. That is gonna break it is going to go to bland against this and actually applying these fixes to the that he argued that really breaking hard either it is. Playing with the see how it looks we've got what you want well we've got a big finish. Yeah it is and they're not -- out but yeah as well leave you with a class things so the only time again only time that you that light room. Bakes the changes into the image is when you export so when you print it of course -- them ink. Or when you export JPEG or something like that to go to the website and give to somebody or tip to take to service bureau something like that an excellent service bureaus and actually if you."
" could create a good thing there is bureau hours of it right there -- it. It's bad but yes of it and you know when you when you export it to take it someplace else to get out of the applications that almost changes because it's remembering those changes as a math recipe that is applying really fast to your raw data. When you say okay it would take about it makes it and then gives you file."
" With those changes and -- It was something hoping to learn something that and it -- anything you'd like to see on the show email me -- certain vision via com. And you pick up on that revisions -- com both platforms. We can to a discussions about this show. Didn't and public to go to -- incredible program but you -- it but it plays that it play some photographers use that threatened at all photographers -- again not be written out for this incredible background that well I keep looking back it's kind security and it's got there. If you what you're but the effect that this mainstream. Remember this annual stuff to me federally designed to Burton's visions we got commenting back I should be twelve maybe accidentally pixels and save this JPEG. Hope you learn something remember play this isn't working this is playing looks like we're with a little buttons that. It's -- that's going to sit there and play. See you next week."
