Adobe has announced that it's Photoshop Lightroom 1.0 software is now available for pre-order, and is expected to ship in mid-February 2007.

After completing the beta test of over 12 months, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 1.0 now includes innovative features that streamline digital photography workflows.

The Photoshop Lightroom includes new functionality added since Beta 4.1, with changes made to the Library and Develop modules that complement the improvements to the slideshow, print, and Web components. In the advanced Library module, keywording tools help photographers filter through large collections, and an improved import dialogue with more flexible file handling allows more choice when determining file location.

According to Adobe, the new Key Metadata Browser provides quick access to key information tags, with an improved ranking and rating system that now incorporates color labels and a pick/reject system that sorts and locates photographs faster than ever. While in the new Develop module, Virtual Copies and Snapshot tools help present multiple versions of the same image, providing the most choice to clients without the confusion of saving separate physical versions.

Additional tools added include a hue, saturation, and luminance targeted adjustment tool for precise and intuitive image edits. Clone and Healing features provide non-destructive edits to eliminate sensor dust across one or many images.

Moreover, Photoshop Lightroom leverages Adobe Camera Raw technology and supports over 150 native raw file formats, including JPEG and TIFF. It supports the latest camera models, including the Nikon D40 and D80, and the Pentax K10D. While importing, the files can be converted to the Digital Negative specification (DNG) or renamed and segmented by folder or date. DNG is an industry-wide initiative to create a universal file format for solving workflow and archiving issues.

The system requirements for Photoshop Lightroom include Macintosh OSX 10.4.3, 1 GHz PowerPC G4 processor or Microsoft Windows XP SP2, Intel Pentium 4 Processor, and 768 MB RAM and a 1024x768 resolution screen. In addition, it is a Universal Binary application that will run natively on PowerPC and new Intel-based Macintosh systems.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom will ship in mid-February 2007.
