Here are the Lightroom shortcuts I use the most. Use these regularly and they become instinctual (even though the shortcut letters for some are not intuitive).
- G/E - toggle between Grid view (thumbnails) and loupE view (one image)
- spacebar - quick zoom and and out (Z does this too)
- spacebar-hold-drag - quick way to slide the image around even when other editing tools are selected
- 0-5 - assign rating stars 1-5 or unassign stars (0)
- P/U - toggle Pick and Unpick flags
- X - set rejected flag (for batch delete later)
- R - crop (toggles it on/off - a quick way to check if the image is already cropped)
- Cmd-C - open Copy dialog to select which attributes to copy to clipboard
- Cmd-V - Paste current clipboard attributes from a prior image to the current selected image
- Cmd-Shift-E - export the selected images
- Tab - toggle the side panels on/off
- N - toggle spot removal / clone tool on/off (Develop mode)
- K - toggle adjustment brush on/off (Develop mode)
- C - toggle the Compare window - I just recently discovered this - have your "best so far" of a series of shots in one window and compare a few others to help single out the best one
- Cmd-1,2,3,4,5 - quickly switch to any of the 5 Lightroom modules (library, develop, slideshow, print, web)
- F - toggle through 3 fullscreen display modes
- L - toggle through 3 lightsout display modes
- I - (when in loupe view / single image) - toggle through 2 image "info" displays and back to none (resolution, exposure info)
- Cmd-' - create virtual copy of selected image (I do this for multiple crops, B&W version, etc.)
- Cmd-E - edit image in Photoshop
