As much as I like and use Lightroom (and I really do like it, I use
it for about 80% of my work now), it still isn't fast enough for my
needs for deadline press when reviewing a large take to create a set
of selects for deadline press. It often takes several seconds per
image where I get a "loading" or "waiting" message.
I've taken to using iViewMedia Pro recently to very quickly go
through my take and create a set of files for further editing in LR.
If I had Photomechanic, I would use it, but as they don't have online
sales available (still, after 5 years now....), I haven't bought it
yet, and as I have iViewMedia Pro, that's what I use. One of the nice
things about iViewMedia Pro and PM is that you can edit right from
the card, rather than having to import from the card into a LR
catalog first.
But, I will say that LR lets me now shoot in RAW for deadline press,
and provides a sufficiently fast workflow for me to edit a set of
selects very quickly and export them for my PR directors for deadline
press. I couldn't do that previously in ACR and Bridge....just WAY
too slow.
