Upgrade Lightroom 1.4 to 2

Hi all, I have LR 1.4 and wonder whether it is worth upgrading to LR 2. I am a keen amateur, not pro, and don't do a lot of bulk shooting. I also use CS4 Extended.

Thanks

David

I should have added that I will be going with the K-7

I suspect you will have to if you are shooting raw. Adobe only supports current software with updates to ACR.
I'm finding Lightroom 2 is an improvement over 1.4.

You can download a trial version which will allow you to try it for 30 days so that you can see for yourself if it's worth the upgrade.

I especially like the graduated filter in LR2 versus LR1.
Be sure to give it a try.
