So I just figured out an awesome feature in Lightroom.

You may all have already known about it, but, it's new to me.

When rating, if you hold shift and press (rating 1 - 5), it will rate the photo and go to the next one. This speeds things up a lot because now you don't have to press the rating, arrow key, rating, arrow key, etc.

Awesome!

I like to add the X key into my ratings as well. It also works with the Shift & Caps-Lock keys to automatically move on to the next picture. The X key will flag your photo to be deleted and a quick Shift+Backspace will delete all of these photos to the recycling bin when you are ready.

Awesome. Maybe we should get a collection of these "hidden" secrets from LR together.

Any more?

Oh there is a ton. I picked up Kelby's book and it has lots of shortcuts in it.

Then there is the usual sites:
