Photoshop CS4 wouldn't leave Bridge CS4 behind which in some ways still lacks the speed and ease of use of Lightroom 2. On the bright side we still found some improvements and innovations here.
Bridge CS4 brings back the collections panel and this time includes ‘Smart Collections’, which you can use to build collections based on selected criteria. There is also an Auto-Collect feature that can cleverly analyze photos in a folder and stack them according to whether they are candidate images for creating panoramas or Merge to HDR image sets. It does this by analyzing if the photos were shot within an 18 second time frame and whether they overlap a little or a lot. It can be a little slow, but it does work automatically.
Another new feature would be the one-click preview option designed for Bridge CS4, where you just click with the space bar, to make selected images appear full frame on the screen. You can then use the keyboard arrow keys to navigate through the selected images.
Photoshop CS4 still has a long way to go match the speed and functionality of the features it happens to share with Lightroom 2.
