I decided to record a video for today's tip because a) I started to write it out and realized it was a very difficult to put this one into words without lots of screen captures and, b) I'm lazy and a video was much easier. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

I figured I'd pick off another common question I get during this week's video. It deals with what happens to your JPEGs when you shoot in the Raw+JPEG mode on your camera. I always get lots of questions from people that say they shoot Raw+JPEG but Lightroom is ignoring them. Actually, its supposed to. See, Lightroom has a preference setting that lets you tell it what to do with the JPEG files. We'll take a look at it in this video.

Catalog questions always seem to be at the top of everyone's list. So this week I've covered one that I get a lot. It deals with merging catalogs. A good example would be if you've got one catalog for professional work and then maybe one catalog for your personal photos. But you decide at some point you want to merge them together into one. I'll show you how you can merge both catalogs into either one of them or how to create a brand new catalog and merge the others into it. Enjoy.

Hey folks. I created a quick 4 minute video for you on my first thoughts on the Eye-Fi wireless SD cards. I've had some people ask me how it would work when it comes to shooting tethered in Lightroom so I thought I'd give a quick demo of it. In a nutshell, the "pros" are that I think the technology is way cool. This can seriously change things for a lot of photographers out there who want to show off their photos right away or in any situation where being first is key. Plus, for families its just cool and fun. "Cons" - there's no CF card. Its only SD. It works fine in my Nikon D5000, which I've been using a lot, and all of my point-and-shoots, but won't work for my D300. Anyway, hope you enjoy.

You can bet that just about any time I'm out teaching Lightroom I get this question. And every time I get it I swear that I make a mental note to myself to make sure I cover it in a tip. And every time I get back to the office guess what? I forget :) But I finally remembered (after 2 years). The question deals with rearranging your photos and the order that they'll appear in a Slideshow (or even in the Web and Print modules too). We all want control over which photos come first and I'll show you how to get it in this video. Thanks!
