Lightroom 4 allows minor video editing and grading - Version 4 now available!

Adobe recently published an update for its photo software Lightroom. They made a lot changes to the previous version, which I also use for a while. The major improvements are a Robust Video Support, Map support, Simplified Basic Adjustments, Powerful new Shadow& Highlight controls, Elegant Photo Book creation and an Enhanced DNG workflow. 

You can buy the new version as full version ($149) or update ($79) from B&H!

 

Here's what Adobe writes about Video:

 

Lightroom 3 added the ability to import, manage and tag video files but as the popularity of video capture increases it’s important to provide a single, robust workflow solution that can support all of your imaging needs regardless if they’re still images or video captures. Lightroom 4 adds native playback for a wide variety of formats from mobile phones to high end DSLRs. Photographers can also apply common image adjustments to their video clips in real time. Additional video details:

  • Video playback directly within Lightroom
  • Video trimming (In and Out points)
  • Set Video poster frame. (This is the thumbnail that appears in the grid view)
  • Extract a single frame from a video as a JPEG file
  • Most popular DSLR, compact camera and smart phone video formats supported including AVCHD (AVCHD is the native format for Sony DSLRs and many new Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens, MIL, cameras)
  • Videos can be adjusted with a subset of the same controls we use for images.
    • White Balance (JPEG Equivalent)
