Same updates for Lightroom. Plus, I noticed these notes on the LR "fixes":

- Lightroom 1.1 catalogs with user-specified sort order could not be imported into another catalog
- Lightroom 1.1 for Windows could at times display gray boxes instead of image thumbnails
- The preference to write XMP metadata automatically in Lightroom 1.1 could attempt to write metadata indefinitely for
offline images causing significant performance problems
- Images could be dropped from the Quick Collection upon reordering of the source folder
- Catalogs could not be exported to drives smaller than 250MB
- The Web Module was not accessible in Lightroom 1.1 on the Macintosh platform when Lightroom was installed on
case-sensitive volumes such as the Case Sensitive HFS+ (Journaled) volume
- Errors occurred exporting to a Linux SMB network volume
- Scroll position in the grid view was not maintained when changing the view option using the J shortcut key
- The tokens for image number and image count were not displaying properly in the Slideshow module
- The metadata panel could display incorrectly on Windows
- Slideshows on the Macintosh platform did not display properly when a 256MB ATI graphics card was connected to 30
" LCD
- The Lightroom 1.1 Web module export did not position the copyright tag in the same location displayed in the preview
- The auto-eject functionality on Windows ejected the card reader device in addition to the card
- Noise reduction adjustment for all cameras with Bayer Pattern sensor: The base point noise reduction applied at the
demosaic stage of raw processing has been reduced. The resulting effect is that images with zero luminance noise
reduction applied in Lightroom 1.2 will contain more noise than the identical settings in Lightroom 1.1 but less noise
than identical settings in Lightroom 1.0.
- 1:1 previews were not discarded according to the timing set in the Lightroom preferences
- 1:1 previews are not built for an entire set of images when requested after import

Could just be my imagination but ... LR 1.2 seems more "responsive" as I'm moving from image to image.

Cool. Hopefully they fixed the part where it swallows all your system memory until the system crawls, then it gives it back little by little while you wait 10 minutes, then it proceeds (slowly) to swallow it all up again.

Partly my fault for only having 1 GB of memory, but they should have a limit you can set to how much memory it tries to allocate. And unfortunately, adding memory to my Dell workstation is really expensive because it's ECC RAM and I have 4 256MB modules, so to get to 2 GB, I have to replace them all with 512's.

So, it appears that the Bridge update is ONLY for Photoshop CS3. What about for CS2 owners?

Happy upgrading (there's always PS Elements).

I know. :-(

Until then, I'll still use DPP for my RAW conversion into 16-bit uncompressed TIFF, then open it in CS2.

Is there any way to get CS2 to read 40D raw files?

Careful you still keep your exif data.

N/A. We'd require the RAW file anyway for validation.

Have you tried ACR 3.7?...disregard, guess this was released in feb 07 so its too old to support the 40D. My guess is they will be coming out with an update for it soon.

Open with the DPP software your camera came with and save as a 16-bit TIFF.

Or use Adobe's DNG converter, convert the RAWs to DNG. They will then open with the older ACR software.

After a bit of testing I'll have to say if there is any performance increase its hardly noticable, then again it was fast enough before hand. Still, LR2 is going to rock our world when it comes out I am sure.

Also, I have heard talk of an SDK being release for lightroom that will allow plugins such as `neatimage` (for example) to be ported to the LR architechture, so that means completely non-destructive editing in a RAW environment. I'm salivating at the thought.

So as long as my original CR2 file doesn't get written over, I can convert to DNG, then use CS2 to open it, do my RAW processing and converting there and edit from that, legally?
