Adobe have promised that Lightroom would be added to the Creative Cloud suite sometime later in 2012. I'm very pleasantly surprised to report that it wasn't much later at all. Lightroom 4.1 is now a full member. Installation was quick and simple with the Cloud's Adobe Updater application.

Without Cloud, the full version costs $149, with the purchase of stand-alone Photoshop, it is $99, and the upgrade from LR 3.x is $79. Additional cost with your Creative Cloud membership: ZERO DOLLARS!

If your workflow includes a lot of still photos, LR is the tool for the job.
