Subject: [Leica] Uh Oh, do NOT use LR4?!!! Re: Why I am upgrading to LR4...

As normally happens, LR4 is installed along side the earlier version, it
doesn't replace it. I don't use custom tone curves (butno doubt others
do) . LR3 and its catalog  is still available to me on my computers.

Adobe should release a beta for free first and anyone that wants could run
it for free then bugs could be found and reported. After thousands of
people have voluntarily participated there for weeks. ....Oh wait!

Cheers,
Geoff
