CPN Published Part 4 of Inside Lightroom & Photoshop CC Workflow (Lightroom Mobile)

Lightroom

Canon started bundling Adobe’s Creative Cloud Photography program to the EOS 5D Mark III, EOS 6D DSLRs, and then the PowerShot G1 X Mark II and PowerShot G7 X. Since then, the Canon Professional Network published a tutorial series titled Inside Lightroom & Photoshop CC Workflow. Part 4 “Lightroom Mobile” has just been posted. The tutorial comes with video and text.

Lightroom Mobile can be dowloaded for free but needs a subscription to Lightroom & Photoshop CC program or a 30 days trail period. Adobe’s Lightroom & Photoshop CC program is $.99/€12.29 per month.

a Rafflecopter giveaway

Last hours to enter our giveaway!

You can enter our giveaway and win simply by visiting and liking any of the participating sites on Facebook and/or following them on Twitter. To win one of the prizes use the dedicated giveaway box above.

Courtesy of COSYSPEED, we are giving away a CAMSLINGER 160 Street Edition bag, and two PHONEBAG 135, and we are doing it on five sites. The giveaway is live for Canon Watch, Sony Alpha Rumors, 43 Rumors, Fuji Rumors, and for Cosyspeed. Makes 15 prizes in total. Like and follow!

The more sites you like on Facebook and follow on Twitter (using the giveaway box), the more entries you’ll gain and hence increase your chances to win one of the prizes. If you instead visit and like just the Canon Watch Facebook page, then you’ll enter Canon Watch’s giveaway, but you are missing the chance to win anything on the other sites. So, like and follow to increase your chance to win! The more social you are, the more chances you have to win.

Just to remind: each site is giving away 1 CAMSLINGER 160 Street Edition bag and 2 PHONEBAG 135 – makes 15 prizes in total. The contest ends 11/26/2014 at 12:00 AM. Good luck to anyone!

The CAMSLINGER 160 Street Edition bag introduces a new concept of carrying a mirrorless camera on the hip or as a sling bag (works also for a superzooms or a smaller DSLR). It’s not a solution to transport large amounts of gear as the bags are on the smaller side, but for daily live when out shooting with smaller gear it will be a very quick and good solution. I have one and I love it. The prizes: Cosyspeed CAMSLINGER 160 Street Edition bag Cosyspeed
