The voice, the flow, the graphics ... just perfect. Thank you a bunch.

By Geroge, I think I've got it! Thank you! You just confirmed my summation of the previous video. You make it so simple and easy to follow. I'm starting over (only had 150 photos imported so far so not bad). Best training video ever. Straight and to the point.

EXCELLENT!! This tutorial is the business. Frank you are a great teacher. Thank You

WOW. Really, just wow. Great pace, simple language, really great visuals. Best tutorial I have seen.

Fantastic and easy to follow introduction to the maze of Lightroom catalogs!

The Best I have come across. Systematic treatment of the subject,Great job ! Thank you for your hardwork!

I have been watching tutorials for past day and a half, getting more or less confused. Then I found this one. AMAZING. You cleared up my confusion in 15 minutes. Instead of "show" you gave instruction. Thank you so much. This is the BEST explanation of the file management system in LR I have found. (after viewing at least 20 others) I have installed LR but was afraid to launch it because I had installed it and tried it once before only to screw up. I uninstalled it and the old catalog and then did a reinstall. Now I know what to do next. Thanks so much.

One of the best and most clear tutorials for Lightroom I have seen. Looking forward to the future tutorials.

This was incredibly helpful, clear and simple to follow. Thankyou!

Absolutely brilliant tutorial, perfect tempo and extremely clear

Great Job frank. logical and straight forward.What more is there to say!

Seriously, is there even one bad review of this video? No! This is the best Intro to Lightroom I've watched. Nice work.

Brilliant. Thank you for explaining it by use of diagrams. This really helped me.

Frank I was always confused with other tutorials but you explained it perfectly Thank you

This is incredibly helpful information to a new Lightroom user, especially one that is not overly computer keen. The best I have found on the subject. Thank you.

Loved watching. Although I'm pretty adept at using LR and organizing my files, this video actual gave me a better understanding of how everything functions. HUGE THANKS!!

EXCELLENT! One of the best discussions regarding Lr and Catalogs! Fantastic and Thank you!

Great Tutorial Viewed a few others but this was much better and easier to understand, cheers. Looking forward to more.

Excellent video! I just recently installed LightRoom and have seen many instructional videos. This is the clearest and most helpful that I have come across.

It’s all beginning to make sense. Thank you.

Mate, you are amazing. I can't thank you enough, God bless!

Thank you so much for this video. I kept searching for something that would visually represent how the lightroom catalog system works and these diagrams were perfect. Now I understand how I will set up my own catalog and maintain a consistent workflow. Currently subscribed and look forward to watching more of your tutorials. Thanks again!

Very well done, thank you!!!

I must agree with the others here: THE BEST TUTORIAL I EVER SEEN !!!!!

GREETINGS FROM TURKEY. GREAT JOB YOU'VE DONE. THE BEST AND MOST EXPLANATORY VIDEO I'VE CHECKED OUT IN AN EFFORT TO UNDERSTAND LR BASICS BEFORE STARTING. UP TO THE POINT. WISH YOU ALL THE BEST...I WILL BE CHECKING ALL YOUR TUTORIALS FROM NOW.

Genius! Thank you for the great explanation and beautiful graphics.

Many thanks Frank for sharing this, hugely helpful and I wish I’d had this a few years ago when I first acquired Lightroom.

Super clear, love the slower talking for explaining things

This is an informative video. Thank you.

Thanks for making what can be complicated so easy.

Great video, nice and clear...learnt some things too.

This is great. I teach GIS and at the start of each class, I emphasize starting life with a logical file structure and standardized file naming conventions and how it'll save the students grief and unhappiness months and years later. . I'm going to redo my videos based on your overall outline. Thanks.

Great video, only downloaded Lightroom today so all very new

The best explanation of the Lightroom Catalog system that i have seen, many thanks!
