John Beardsworth on “10 Things I Wish I Could Tell a Slightly Less Novice Lightroom User”
Scott Kelby, president of the NAPP, posted an insightful article entitled “10 Things I Would Tell New Lightroom Users” last week. Today, I came across a similar post from Lightroom expert John Beardsworth entitled 10 Things I Wish I Could Tell a Slightly Less New Lightroom User.”
John Beardsworth post is designed for the “slightly less new” Lightroom user, but like Mr. Kelby’s I believe that this article is also well worth your time.
On a personal note, I am delighted to see that John Beardsworth agrees with me about the potential headaches that multiple catalogs can create for both novice and experienced Lightroom users.
I am also delighted with Mr. Beardsworth second point: “Unless you really know what you’re doing, never use Explorer or Finder for moving or renaming files that are catalogued in Lightroom” since I recorded a tutorial on this very topic just a few months ago. You can see my tutorial on Moving Folders within Adobe Photoshop Lightroom here.
