k2photography Posted July 18, 2011 Share #1 Posted July 18, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello, I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I am looking for some help in getting up to speed on LR3 especially processing the M9's DNG files. Disclaimer, I have never used any of the previous versions of LR. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

asmith Posted July 18, 2011 Share #2 Posted July 18, 2011 I am a computer novice but I found Martin Evening's book clear and helpful, although it covers many eventualities that I am unlikely to encounter. In fact all you need to getbstarted is covered in about 30 of its 600 odd pages. A very brief account is given in David Taylor's book on the M9 . There are several other books on LR3 . Amazon lists them Alwyn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dabow Posted July 18, 2011 Share #3 Posted July 18, 2011 The Luminous Landscape did a whole HD video series explaining LR in-depth, along with workflow. You may find that useful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetoness Posted July 18, 2011 Share #4 Posted July 18, 2011 Chris Orwig's videos on Lynda.com were really well done and very helpful. 3 levels of LR3 video-beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff S Posted July 19, 2011 Share #6 Posted July 19, 2011 Scott Kelby's LR3 book is the best I've found for beginners. Just ignore the bad jokes. Martin Evening's book, mentioned earlier, is also good, but I'd go with Kelby initially. Easy to follow and lots of useful tips...about $25 from Amazon. Some like videos; some like books. I've tried both, but like to have the book handy for quick reference on any given issue. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyk Posted July 23, 2011 Share #7 Posted July 23, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) The luminous landscape videos are just a walk through, and personally, a bit painful to watch. Should be way cheaper. Nice guys but they arent comedians. I found Martin Evenings book to be quite useful, with a lot of extra 'aha' information.
