This is a clearly written book, which explains Lightroom's key concepts and functions from a real world user perspective. Its easy to read, well edited and cross referenced, and can be used successfully either as a progressive course of study or as a 'dip in' reference source. The remarkably small number of pages are laid out logically with very informative screen-grabs and photo-illustrations, which enable you to make sense of the text very quickly. Unlike many books of this type Photoshop Lightroom 2 Made Easy manages to be both a comprehensive introductory guide and to provide considerable insight into the further possibilities of Lightroom, without either on the one hand patronising or on the other confusing the reader.
I have tried on many occasions to make sense of Lightroom and until now failed dismally. For me this book has been a real revelation: In short my entire approach to post processing and file management has now changed radically as a result of Lightroom's concepts and methodologies being unlocked by Sean's book. If you're new to Lightroom then this book is simply a must. If you've struggled with deciphering the application over a period as I have then this book will be like finding the Rosetta Stone. Recommended without reservation!

Other Lightroom books are already on the market. However for beginning Lightroom users they can be quite intimidating, with two of the most popular books totaling more than 400 and 600 pages each. This current book provides a clear guide and summary of Lightroom in some 150 pages. It is an excellent choice for beginners and a good summary that more advanced users can refer back to. There is a nice list of web resources that users can refer to for more information about Lightroom, including the authors own website. So should you buy this book? If you are just starting out in Lightroom or find it intimidating, the answer is a definite yes. It is Lightroom made easy!

A well put together book which is clear, concise and easy to understand. At 160 pages its straight to the point, there is no packing here. Its well illustrated and easy to follow.
If you are new to LR this book is a great read and ultimately belongs on the computer table as a reference manual.
