This course covers the bare essentials of LightRoom - I was hoping to learn some editing basics and general skills, but it's more directed toward users who may be opening Lightroom for the first time. The course dives in to where to find various actions, how to save photos, how to upload photos, etc. Seems it could be useful for those less tech-savvy.

guy goes too fast . I like the information but can't use it at this rate of presentation.
Seems to assume that most are more than beginners.
