更新項目

Lightroom 1.4 includes corrections for the following issues:

1. Compatibility with legacy printer drivers on OS X 10.5 (Leopard) has been updated.
2. Previous camera profiles identified in the Calibrate panel of the Develop module may have displayed poor results at extreme ends of the temperature and tint ranges. A new camera profile identified as Camera Raw 4.4 is now available and will be applied by default to all images without existing Camera Raw or Lightroom settings. The creation of new default profiles will also include the updated Camera Raw 4.4 profile. Images edited in Camera Raw or Lightroom with earlier profiles will retain the earlier profile value and visual appearance.
3. In previous grayscale conversions the Color Noise setting was disabled and this could result in an image with excessive noise when grayscale channel mixing is applied. Both the tool and effect have been enabled in Lightroom 1.4 providing the ability to reduce noise in grayscale conversions. In order to return to the prior visual appearance, Color Noise reduction can be set to zero.

Lightroom 1.4 includes the following known issues:

1. In the print module, deselecting the Identity Plate option when the option to render on every image is already applied will result in no change and the Identity Plate will be applied to every image. To remove the Identity plates, deselect the option to render the Identity Plates on every image then deselect the Identity Plate option.

看來主要為加入新機子 RAW 格式支援，及修正灰階轉換時雜訊的問題
並沒有太大的新功能加入
之前有消息提到 Adobe 打算為 Lightroom 加入 HDR 及寬景製作的功能
這些都是 Photoshop CS3 已有的功能，加入 Lightroom 應該不難
也許得等到 Lightroom 2 才會出現了
而天秤很希望 Adobe 能加入相簿製作及列印的功能，或是製作成 Flash 相簿功能
畢竟 Flash 已經是自家的東西了，大量的結合應用應該不是問題吧
現有的 Web 製作其實不太實用
而現在列印格式又很呆板，無法製作有質感的相簿
空有一身好武藝 (影像處理)，但應用方面功能很貧乏實在很可惜
