If you use Lightroom 6 and don't have any plans to switch to Adobe's subscription software, here's a warning: don't run the Lightroom updater through Adobe's download manager with default settings. It will delete your Lightroom 6 and install Lightroom CC instead.
Adobe unveiled its cloud-centric Lightroom CC yesterday and announced that desktop Lightroom has been rebranded as Lightroom Classic CC. The company also stated that Lightroom 6 would be the final standalone version of Lightroom that doesn't require a subscription... backtracking on what the company said just a few years ago.
When Adobe launched a major Creative Cloud update that brought the powerful new Dehaze slider to Lightroom CC, photographers who had purchased a standalone copy of Lightroom 6 instead of subscribing to Adobe CC didn't receive the new features.
If that describes you, there's some great news for you today: your Lightroom 6.1 can have Dehaze as well thanks to a new free preset pack by Prolost.
When Adobe unveiled Lightroom CC/6 last month, one of the big features in the update was support for graphics processors (GPU) in order to speed things up in the Develop module. Adobe claimed that some users would see up to a 10x performance increase with the GPU helping the CPU out.
Unfortunately for some users who bought or upgraded to Lightroom CC/6, that hasn't been the case.
Adobe Lightroom CC/6 has been a hot topic in the photo community ever since it was announced a week ago. Although most discussions have focused on the "big" features such as HDR, panoramas, and performance, I have personally found one small addition to be the most useful new feature in my own workflow. I'm talking about the new "Add to Collection" option -- it's a bigger time saver and organizational boost for me than anything else that was introduced.
Lightroom 6 (AKA Lightroom CC) was just announced. I’ve been eagerly waiting for this release, pretty much from the moment Lightroom 5 was announced. And I have to be honest: I’m sad.
Yes, software updates make me disappointed. Here’s what’s up.
After months of prematurely posted product pages, leaked details, and announcement dates that turned out to be wrong, Adobe will finally be unveiling the next version of Lightroom tomorrow.
Earlier this month, a leaked product page revealed a number of features that will be found in the upcoming Lightroom 6. One of them was an HDR merging tool that combines multiple exposures into a single HDR image. Here's a first glimpse at how the feature will work.
Lightroom 6 is coming soon, and a leaked product listing is giving us a good idea of what we can expect in the latest version of Adobe's popular tool for photographers.
If you want to stay up to date with Adobe's Lightroom software, you'll need to make sure you're up to date with the latest operating systems. Adobe has announced that Lightroom 6 will only be compatible with 64-bit operating systems.
