Tired of wrestling with catalogs, missing files, and sync headaches in Lightroom Classic? This class covers my 2024 transition to the streamlined, cloud-optional Lightroom Desktop and why — two years later — I’m still delighted with the switch. No need to disturb your existing Classic files; just start doing new work directly on the camera raw files.
 
While Classic has grown bulky over a decade, Desktop offers a modern, efficient interface that handles all my editing needs, seamlessly integrating with Photoshop and plugins like Topaz when required.
 
What we’ll explore:
No More Catalog Hassles: Learn how Desktop eliminates the import step and file-tracking headaches.
Intuitive Design: Tour a smoother workspace redesigned for how most photographers actually work.
Feature Parity: See how Adobe continuously updates both versions with the latest technology.
 
Through short, practical workflow demos, you'll see if this streamlined approach is the right move for your photography.  [54 min]
