 Scott Kelby book is a must-have May 23, 2010
Hot Flash Foto (Louisville, KY)
I got the book before the software arrived and looked it over. I read the foreword and this fella is the kind of person that we should all aspire to be.
After getting the software and following his guidelines on how to arrange my pictures and folders, I installed the software and started using LR2 right away. I've programmed computers for years, but I'm not a pro at graphic anything, so having this guide was invaluable for me. I can honestly say that I never would have figured out how to use the features properly at all were it not for the first two chapters. I'm already comfortable with what I've done and look forward to learning more.
His writing style is easy to understand and guides me from one task to the next just like it flows in the program. He's obviously thought out his approach to workflow and benefits me, the reader, as he teaches me what to do and what to decide for myself, and more importantly, what to watch out for! I can't count how many pieces of software I've had to figure out on my own, only to make one misstep after another before finally arriving at a working solution. His book has already saved me hours and I'm only an eighth of the way through it!
I recommend this book.

I have nver been one to read or follow any Manual or Instructions but with Lightroom 2 I am always using it when I am using the program. I have found it invaluable & would be completely lost without it I have done a lot of photos using it.
 Lightroom 2 - an absolutely ideal companion for you software. May 8, 2010

A Bad Start...But Gets Better As It Goes Along April 24, 2010
Christian Nelson (Bottom of the Lake, Minnesota)
No one likes Scott Kelby more than I do. I'm a Kelby Kool-Aid drinker from way back. I don't just *think* Scott is the best...I *know* he's the best. Unfortunately though, I get the feeling that he rushed his way through this book just a little bit...especially at the beginning. Almost as if he had someone else write the first few chapters, and then he took over for the rest of the book.
When I say the book feels "rushed"...I'm not saying there's not enough detail...I'm saying that much of the detail...especially in the early part of the book relating to how to bring in your images and get started with LightRoom is, well...confusing and less-than helpful. Could have used some thoughtful editing...and rethinking of how to start the book...how to write about setting up libraries and collections, etc.
I finally gave up and found some web-site resources that provided better explanations for getting started...then returned to the book... and then once he got into using the "Develop" and other modules, the book picked up speed, and from that point on it's vintage Scott Kelby...funny (as always)...goofy (of course)...and very helpful. I'm rating it at 4 stars, but if possible I would have said 3-1/2. Definitely not up to Scott's usual.
