Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom Classic CC Classroom in a Book (2019 release)

I'm not sure why several reviewers stated they thought that the description is wrong or that it's not for Lightroom Classic... (Admittedly, the book title is wrong, but Amazon's "Classic" designation is correct.) However, throughout the book, you can see numerous screenshots that say "Lightroom Classic CC" on them. Adobe did a disservice to the product by confusing the two different flavors. "Lightroom CC" is a stripped-down version and looks nothing like the pictures in this book. "Lightroom Classic" is the desktop version used in this book. I'm teaching a class, using this book as our textbook, and can attest to the fact that it is for Lightroom Classic and not the CC cloud version. :)

This series is almost always a classroom in a book. It’s fairly thorough and teaches you a lot of basics. I purchased it because I have the memory of a squirrel and like to look through it when I forget how to do something. Very nice book that explains everything clearly and thoroughly.

I haven't finished this book yet but I love what I have read and learned thus far. I am a "just the facts mam" type student and this book is perfect my needs, facts without being overly wordy.

Helpful tutorial of the new programs.

Shipped fast. No issues getting to the downloadable content, and the additional ebook from adobe press includes video tutorials! Must have for new photographers.

This is a great book for helping you think through a suggested "workflow" of processing your photos, and how Lightroom and Photoshop integrate. They explain that not all readers will need or use every aspect of the book, which is good, because as a hobbyist I do not need instruction on a filing system for my photos which they cover extensively. My only issue, as a neophyte, is that the book title and content refers to "Lightroom", but they are really showing you via the instruction and screen shots "Lightroom Classic" - the two interfaces are very different and if you try to follow along in Lightroom your screen doesn't match what's in the book, at all. I did not use the online resources which in all fairness may explain that, but the book itself does not.

I thought I would like this product because I have watched the authors videos. The book starts out a bit confusing. I have used Light room previously and did not need the intro chapters.Have not gone through the rest of the book as yet; therefore it might prove better after I do.

The book as far as I got was very frustrating to read. Many of the instructions were for the Apple operating system and did not apply to the Windows system. This is a very expensive book and I strongly advise not to buy it, at least if you have an Windows operating system. I suggest learning Lightroom from videos on the Adobe site and save yourself a lot of money.

Es un libro fino de papel brilloso e ilustraciones a color. Espero leerlo completo gracias a su hermosura y a que no es demasiado largo.

Per me che parto da una scarsa conoscenza di Lightroom e Photoshop è un libro che mi ha permesso di conoscere ed utilizzare specialmente Lightroom e, in minore misura, Photoshop.Nel libro non c'è tutto, date le molteplici funzioni specialmente di Photoshop, ma permette di partire con il piede giusto.Da considerare che i due programmi sono stati aggiornati e, di conseguenza, c'è qualche piccola differenza rispetto a quanto esposto, ad esempio nell'organizzazione di alcuni menu dei programmi.

Good instructional manual!

This book was brought for me as a present by my daughter. I am new to lightroom and I have found that the book shows me in a clear logical way how to use the lightroom software. It is well laid out and easy to understand and guides you through the process of managing and editing your photographs.

It is very comprehensive and easy to understand the topic even for a 68 years old student.
