How does Lightroom 3 differ from Adobe Bridge?
Adobe Bridge is designed to work with a wide variety of graphic, image, and video file types and to manage files in varied workflows involving all the component applications in Adobe Creative SuiteĀ® software. Lightroom and its file management functions are tailored specifically for the digital photography workflow. Lightroom unites all your photography essentials, including image editing, in one intuitive application. Lightroom uses a catalog structure, which speeds up searches and enables Lightroom to store information about images and display them on offline media. Bridge cannot display offline images.
