In a surprise move, Adobe have announced that Lightroom 2.4 will come with video support for newer DSLR cameras. Citing this new trend as a reason for including this feature, Lightroom Product Manager Tom Hogarty says “Well with recent changes in my family, I wanted to be able to get access to video inside Lightroom, along with my wonderful baby pictures”. Lightroom is capable of both playback and minor editing of video and will support FLV and MOV files initially with more to follow in future versions.
Per Adobe request: Okay.. rumbled way too quick on this one folks.. April Fools.. In fairness, there’s no link to any announcement, nor does Tom ever announce things so casually. Anyway, best wishes to Tom and his family!
That’s just mean…good job.
Oh how I wish I would have rememberd that it was April 1 before I read this. So much excitement. Cruelty.
Maybe not so silly. Bridge already does this surely it’s going to happen when these cameras become more mainstream
I was so happy, then so sad…
April Fool perhaps?
Is it an April fool’s joke?
Please tell me it’s not a joke ….
Announced where?
I’ve heard that this should be out by April 1st…
April Fools!
As one of the owners of the Nikon D90, I have to say that this is particularly cruel 🙂
Will this work with my Sony HD Blue-Ray player? ?
First of the day. I salute you.
Smells like April fools, but ya got me cause I got all excited…and then realized what day it was 🙁
I know they tried hard to get this out by the end of March, I guess they’ll just have to settle for very early April.
