Lightroom 2.4 update available

Lightroom has been updated to 2.4

Though this isn't an amazing update it fixes a couple of issues that I personally have been having.

To get the update:

In Lightroom goto help>Check for updates.... and click on Download. This will bring to Adobes site were you can download. The instrctions to download are also on that page.

ALSO You can goto:

Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4508

MAC: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4507

The below info comes from adobes readme file, (http://www.adobe.com/special/photoshop/Lightroom_24_ReadMe.pdf)

Camera Calibration

I was reading through Scott Kelby's Lightroom 2 book and came accross and great link on Calibrating you camera in RAW. You can use either Lightroom or Photoshop to achieve this. Seems like a lot of work. Is it worth it? and who has the time?
