Lightroom 2 Released

2008-07-29

According to Lightroom Killer Tips (Click) Lightroom 2 has been released and is officially shipping at $299USD. For those not familiar with the new version here are a few bits in the new version

Dodging/Burning, Multi monitor supoprt, improved catalogue and keywording, better photoshop integration and more

Sounds promising! Can’t wait to get my hands on it as I decided not to touch the beta as Adobe warned of capability issues which could possibly occur when the official version was released. But just something which I don’t understand that a few people have brought to my attention since posting is the price difference between the USA and Australia. If I was to purchase LR2 in the US it would cost $299 whilst if to purchase in Australia $539.. Strange

  3. Hey James

  4. In this day and age of globalisation, there shouldn’t be such a large difference in Aus pricing vs US pricing.
    Are there any legalities in the licensing fine print about buying Lightroom internationally?
