Lightroom oder Lightroom Classic? Diese Frage bekomme ich sehr häufig per Mail oder bei Instagram und Youtube gestellt. Welches Programm sollte man denn nun verwenden? Oder aber Nutzer sind erstaunt, dass ihr Programm ganz anders aussieht, als das, was ich in meinen Videos nutze. Das liegt an den zwei unterschiedlichen Versionen von Lightroom, die Adobe anbietet. In diesem Video möchte ich auf die Unterschiede etwas genauer eingehen.

Lightroom ist die neuere Variante der Produkte und kann auch auf dem Smartphone oder Tablet benutzt werden.

Lightroom Classic hat insgesamt ein paar mehr Funktionen

LR Classic bietet eine Desktop Version mit der es einige Funktionen mehr gibt. Oben in den Reitern finden sich dort zum Beispiel noch Möglichkeiten, Fotobücher, Diashows und Karten zu erstellen. Lightroom dagegen verzichtet auf diese Funktionen und beschränkt sich mehr auf die Bildbearbeitung. Auch die Katalogfunktionen sind in der Classic Version umfangreicher, so dass man seine Fotos besser sortieren und katalogisieren kann.

Wie die Programme deine Fotos speichern

Der größte Unterschied ist die Speicherung deiner Fotos. Während Lightroom Classic alle Fotos in einem Katalog mit Referenzen auf einer normalen Festplatte speichert, arbeitet Lightroom mit einer cloudbasierten Speicherung. Deine Fotos werden also ins Internet geladen, damit du sie auf allen Geräten jederzeit abrufen kannst. Dabei werden die kompletten RAW Dateien hochgeladen. Nicht jeder ist davon aber begeistert, seine Fotos in eine Cloud hochladen zu müssen. In Lightroom Classic besteht die Möglichkeit, mit Smartvorschauen in geringerer Auflösung zu arbeiten, auch wenn die entsprechende Festplatte, auf dem die originale RAW Datei liegt, nicht angeschlossen ist. Für den Export muss diese aber vorhanden sein. Lightroom hat den großen Vorteil, dass immer automatisch Backups in der Cloud angelegt werden. Diese Backups muss man in der Classic Version noch manuell erstellen lassen. Du siehst, beide Systeme haben gewisse Vor- und Nachteile. Da musst du für dich selbst entscheiden, welches System dir eher liegt.

Möglichkeiten der Bildbearbeitung fast gleich

Wenn wir uns die reine Bildbearbeitung anschauen, so ist der Funktionsumfang inzwischen fast gleich. Einige Kleinigkeiten, wie Luminanzmasken sind in Lightroom noch nicht vorhanden, aber alle Basic Tools findet man auch in beiden Varianten. Lightroom Classic hat aber insgesamt deutlich mehr Vorteile, besonders dann, wenn man lokal arbeiten möchte.

Schau dir das obige Video gerne nochmal an, um alle Unterschiede zu sehen.
