Adobe Delivers Lightroom 3 Public Beta Update
Adobe today released an update to its Photoshop Lightroom 3 beta software, available immediately through Adobe Labs. Building on the success of the first Lightroom 3 beta, which was downloaded by more than 350,000 photographers, Lightroom 3 beta 2 incorporates feedback from the first iteration of the beta while offering users several new features and greatly improved performance throughout the application.
New features in this release include tethered shooting support for select Nikon and Canon cameras, the ability to import and manage video files from DSLR cameras for a streamlined workflow and additional behind-the-scenes architecture enhancements for faster importing and loading of images. The addition of luminance noise reduction to the color noise reduction options already available in the beta helps photographers achieve overall exceptional image quality from high ISO images. The import experience and watermarking functionality have also been modified to reflect feedback received from the Lightroom community during the first beta period.
The input from the photography community has been extremely valuable and Adobe would like to thank everyone who has participated in the beta program. Adobe encourages photographers to test this new selection of features and provide the product team with feedback so they can produce the highest quality final product.

One of the things I love about Lightroom is the fact that new versions go through this public beta testing process and implementation of suggestions (and demands) posted by REAL photographers from around the globe.
Thanks to that, any photographer can safely buy an upgrade knowing that it is worth their money and that the quantity of bugs left over after the beta program is quite minimal. That is the way all major software makers should go about when introducing their applications to the paying customer.
