There are snapshooters, and then there are more serious photographers for which Lightroom is designed. "When they start taking the camera out of the bag because they see an image, something compelling they want to capture, it's more photography than just recording family events," said Tom Hogarty, Adobe's senior product manager for Lightroom.

It's a sizable and vocal market, with 600,000 downloads of the two free betas of Lightroom 3 and "close to 2,000" sharing comments about the software on Adobe's forums, Hogarty said.

Lens corrections But even those who enjoy editing photos don't necessarily like the drudgery of some basic chores. Enter automated lens corrections, a feature that also arrived in Photoshop CS5 in April.

With it, clicking a checkbox fixes geometric distortion that causes parallel lines to bow inward or outward, vignetting that darkens the corners of images, and chromatic aberration that gives blue and red color fringes in high-contrast areas.
