This collaboration between Adobe and Microsoft marks the beginning of a new era. Now you can download Adobe Lightroom directly from the Microsoft App Store.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Beside above, is Lightroom part of Creative Cloud? You can purchase Lightroom on its own or as part of the Adobe Creative Cloud Photography plan, with both plans starting at US$9.99\/month. Lightroom Classic is available as part of the <strong>Creative<\/strong> Cloud Photography plan, starting at US$9.99\/month.<\/p>\n<p>You asked, what is the difference between Creative Cloud and <strong>Lightroom<\/strong>? While Lightroom has synced Smart Previews between desktop and mobile versions for years, the <strong>Creative<\/strong> Cloud has never doubled as a backup service because the original RAW files aren&#8217;t saved on the <strong>cloud<\/strong> \u2014 just the previews. In <strong>Lightroom<\/strong> CC, however, the original RAW files are saved along with their adjustments.<\/p>\n<p>Quick Answer, how do I use Adobe <strong>Creative<\/strong> <strong>Cloud<\/strong> with <strong>Lightroom<\/strong>? <iframe style=\"margin-top:25px;width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g-zznH9BKx4\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Amazingly, which version of <strong>Lightroom<\/strong> should I use? Lightroom CC is ideal for photographers that want to edit anywhere and has up to 1TB of storage to back up original files, as well as the edits. It also has a simplified user interface. Lightroom Classic, however, is still the best when it comes to features.You can no longer buy Lightroom as a standalone program and own it forever. To access Lightroom, you must subscribe to a plan. If you stop your plan, you will lose access to the program and the images you have stored in the <strong>cloud<\/strong>. Now it&#8217;s up to you to choose the option that fits your needs best!<\/p>\n<h2>When should I use Lightroom vs Photoshop?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>On a high level, Lightroom is the best tool to manage and process the thousands of photos that live on your devices. Photoshop specializes in greater control to achieve more expansive edits that will help you make a few images look flawless.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Which is better Lightroom or capture one?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you want to have full control over the colours in your pictures, Capture One could be ideal for you. Capture One is more crash-proof than Lightroom. This can make a huge difference in your workflow. The best thing to do is get a free trial for Capture One and Lightroom at the same time.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I practice Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DZ-YJ0iZNF0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I learn to use Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ha0TnxRk8Ew\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I use Lightroom for beginners?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0S_4btxc65Q\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What&#8217;s the difference between Lightroom and Photoshop?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>In addition to media management capabilities, Lightroom contains a set of tools that allow photographers to manipulate images. In short, think of Photoshop as an image editing tool while Lightroom is an image management tool with some limited image editing capabilities.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Which is better Lightroom Classic or Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Lightroom is much slicker and more streamlined than Lightroom Classic and doesn&#8217;t sacrifice much of its power. Its other advantages are that all your images are available everywhere in their original format and resolution, and that your organizational system of folders and albums will be the same on any device.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Should I learn Photoshop or Lightroom first?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you are a beginning photographer looking for a relatively intuitive photo editing software, Lightroom is generally best, to begin with. You can always add Photoshop to the mix later, if and when you&#8217;re in need of advanced photo manipulation techniques.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where can I get Adobe Lightroom for free?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Adobe offers the public a way to use any of its programs for free: a free trial. This trial is the best way to get Adobe Lightroom or any of the more than 20 applications available in the Creative Cloud, for free.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is it worth paying for Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>As you&#8217;ll see in our Adobe Lightroom review, those who take a lot of photos and need to edit them anywhere, Lightroom is well worth the $9.99 monthly subscription. And recent updates make it even more creative and usable.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is Adobe Lightroom a one time purchase?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Is Lightroom a one-time payment? Lightroom costs a subscription to use from the Adobe Creative Cloud and doesn&#8217;t have an option for a one-time payment. For a cheaper solution, you may want to consider the free yet limited version of Lightroom available on mobile devices.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Do professional photographers use Lightroom or Photoshop?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Lightroom is known for its non-destructive editing and sophisticated batch processing features, useful mainly for photographers and image editors, whereas Photoshop favours layers based editing and is useful for photographers, image editors, graphic designers, illustrators, animators and many more creative types.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Which photo editing software is best for beginners?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Luminar AI.<\/li>\n<li>Photolemur.<\/li>\n<li>Adobe Lightroom.<\/li>\n<li>Aurora HDR.<\/li>\n<li>AirMagic.<\/li>\n<li>Adobe Photoshop.<\/li>\n<li>ACDSee Photo Studio Ultimate.<\/li>\n<li>Serif Affinity Photo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Do I need a graphics card for Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Lightroom Classic cannot effectively utilize a high-end GPU at the moment, but we still recommend a mid-range GPU as many other related application like Photoshop do use the GPU more heavily. For most users, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 is a solid choice.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Should I switch from Lightroom to capture?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Many photographers who make the switch from Lightroom to Capture One Pro say that the color quality is unparalleled by any RAW editor out there, especially when it comes to natural-looking skin tones.

Luminar also features a much easier to use interface, than Lightroom, with one-click artificial intelligence that benefits professional photographers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I edit RAW photos in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PsWF1GDflbk\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How can I edit RAW in Lightroom for free?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XYhl47bC3DA\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What program can edit RAW photos?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Due to its prestigious producer, Adobe Lightroom has been the standard in RAW photo editing for a long time.
