I wrote a review of the Lightroom 4 beta for Wired's Gadget Lab, but do to space constraints I didn't go into the kind of detail that more serious photographers might want to know. Of course if you're a serious photographer, you could just go download the beta yourself, which, if you're the curious type, I suggest you do, though I would not use it with images you care about. The only thing I have that you don't have is that I got to sit down with Adobe's Tom Hagaarty, the head of Lightroom and take a tour of the new features. There's nothing in what follow that you can't find on your own or in Adobe's reference material, but if you'd like a guided tour, read on.
