It still has lots of features Lightroom cloud doesn’t have - big ones and little ones, including some I don’t think will ever make their way to ‘cloud.’ It was designed to be heavy on Metadata features, and things like Tethering in the studio, and advanced printing, and things like that right from the start. Lightroom Classic, the original, was designed from the ground up for serious and professional photographers. No, I don’t, and here’s why: While anyone photographer can choose either one they want, Lightroom Classic and Lightroom ‘cloud’ were designed for two different types of customers. Do I think a similar Print feature is coming to Lightroom ‘cloud?’ If you want to print, it’s either Photoshop or Lightroom Classic (but again, it wouldn’t recommend Photoshop, and I explained why in my session). Not even the Operating System’s print dialog appears. There’s not even a print command in Lightroom ‘cloud’ (try pressing Command-P and nothing happens. I had to give them the bad news - there is no print module in Lightroom ‘cloud’ and the only way to make a print there is to email the photo you want printed to a photo lab. “Where are these features in Lightroom ?” However, during the conference my #1 most-asked question was: Its print module is one of the best parts of Classic, and ever since it was introduced I totally stopped printing from within Photoshop altogether.
Last week during The Wildlife Photography Conference I did a session on “How to print your wildlife photos” and it, of course, centered on Lightroom Classic being your printing tool.
