What makes this new Lightroom “Collaborative Proofing” Feature Any Better Than What We Already Had?
I saw comments like those from my post last Friday about this new Lightroom Technology Preview, so I thought I’d address it here today. There are at least five advantages (maybe more), over the current limited proofing feature e and here they are:
(1) You can limit the total number of picks a client can choose, which is really helpful. I’ve submitted 120 images to a client and had them request 109 images edited and retouched. Lesson learned. Now I say “Pick your 10 or 12
(2) You don’t have to go back to a small panel in Lightroom Classic to see their picks — they’re all collected right there for you, right where you shared them on Lightroom Web in the first place.
(3) You’re one click away from creating a collection of just their picks
(4) You can easily take that collection of their picks and resubmit them to have them narrow things down even more (and limit that number
(5) You get a notification in your Lightroom CC mobile app letting you know if your client makes a selection or comment.
That’s just five of the low-hanging fruit; I’ll bet Adobe could give you a few more. I know watermarking was one some folks really would like to see added, and hopefully that will make the final version.
