@markdphoto "The corrections made in LR will hold if you export but not if you open via PS and ACR." Are you using the "edit in function" from within Lightroom to send the photo to PS / ACR or are you opening the file via PS and ACR? If you are doing the latter then your edits will only be read if you have saved the metadata to xmp. ... View more

Yes Lightroom 4 has the process engine that will be in ACR 7.x which will likely be issued when Photoshop CS6 ships. LR has the engine builtin and does not use the ACR Plugin that is used by Photoshop. It is my understanding that ACR 6.7RC has the ability to handle the edits done in LR 4 when you use the edit in function to send a raw file to Photoshop CS5 but it does not have the new user interface to make adjustments using the new Process version 2012. To me it looks like an interim workaround untill Photoshop CS6 ships, maybe someone from Adobe can clarify. So to get the ability to process your raw files with the new process engine 2012 you will need to update either LR to version 4 or Photoshop to CS6. ... View more

Also there is the fact that DVD burning from LR is not supported in Win 64bit. Maybe the fact that another program is doing the DVR burning, having LR open or being  used is cauing some conflict in Win 64 bit?  Just a thought. ... View more

Is this happening in LR 3.4? ... View more

Understood but the LR engineers will not be working with LR 3.3 to solve those uncorrected bugs. What they now need to know is what bugs are still present in LR 3.4 and what new bugs have been created by the update. The issue should now be "Lightroom 3.4 Performance Feedback". No need to receive further feedback from users of LR 3.3. ... View more

I have been following this thread since it originated. However I am not sure what is being discussed at this point in time is it LR 3.3 Performance Feedback or has it moved to LR 3.4 Performance Feedback. If the latter then maybe someone with the ability should change the Topic header. If the latter then the thread should be closed, since Adobe is certainly not trying to correct bugs in LR 3.3 since the new release 3.4. ... View more

Quote "LR 3.3 regularly freezes up while working in the Development module. Usually seems to be when I am using the lens correction tools." Maybe you could give a little more detail e.g Working with individual files? applying correction to a batch of files? Manual corrections or auto?. ... View more

I am sure you will see improvements to these areas in Lightroom, as I see it LR 3 was a new rebuild, new process engine, new noise reduction/ sharpening and introduction of Lens correction profiles. The rush to meet the introduction of PS CS5 seams to have left them short on the testing of the upgrade and they are now struggling to deal with the performance bugs introduced with LR 3.x. JMHO. Raw conversion software is still in a rapid stage of development and other software providers keep pushing the envelop, Capture 1, DxO, Bibble, Aperture and others. ... View more

Jeff also said "Could Lightroom force fit a pixel based editing module into Lightroom? Yes, I suppose but the interest in producing yet another pixel editing tool is simply not there." Market conditions in the future might dictate otherwise, but I do not think Abobe will develop Lightroom to the stage where it would be an alternative to Photoshop CS. ... View more

The reality is LR is designed to be an alternative to ACR / Bridge not as an alternative to Photoshop CS. Lightroom is ACR with file management capabilities using a data base structure and some other tit bits. ... View more

During my working years in the banking industry the marketing department always indicated that only about 10% of disatisifed customers make formal complaints, the rest just choose alternative providers. In the case of Adobe, because of their profile in the market the ratio may not be that low, but I am sure that a signficant amount will make alternative choices. ... View more

I am a user of Lightroom since the Beta v3 before the release of V1. I have always upgraded to the latest version up to the present version LR 3.3RC. My main operating system has been Win through XP to Vista and now to Win 7 64bit. Info on my existing system is as follows. I have followed the forums since the use of the original Lightroom betas and while I have not experienced any major problems I can accept that some users experience major performance issues. My main use of LR is for developing my raw files from Olympus E300 and E510 and I must say that the improvements over the past few years in the process engine, particularly process version 2010, has been very good. During this development period of Lightroom I have also used and continue to use several third party raw processing software including SilkyPix  versions 2 through 4 and Bibble Pro versions 4 and 5. These products all have their individual strengths and produce very good/excelent output files. Presently I use Lightroom as my main raw processing software but I recognize that the processing of raw data from Digital Cameras is still in a rapid development stage. The main reason for the use of Lightroom is the quality output of version 2010 and the improvements to the sharpening and noise reduction features in version 3.x. ... View more
