As with many of their releases, Adobe always gives a discount for upgrading Lightroom instead of buying the full version. In the case of Lightroom, the upgrade license only costs $100 compared to the retail price of $300.

So factor in the current sale of Lightroom 3 and the discounted upgrade price for the next version, and you’ll be able to score Adobe Lightroom 4 for somewhere around $200 to $250 instead of the full retail version.

My brother Chris and I shot this gig for Q Magazine and had a blast.
