#ADOBE LIGHTROOM 6 UPDATE#

I had Safari and Chrome open with over 30 tabs, Mail was open with several in-progress emails minimized, iTunes was playing music, CrashPlan was backing up in the background, etc., etc.

But thatвЂ™s all a moot point, now вЂ“ and thank God (I meanвЂ¦thank some engineers at Adobe, I guess).ДЇor those interested, all of these times are based on a very real-world environment on my 15вЂќ i7 fully-loaded Retina MacBook Pro (pre-Thunderbolt 2). It likely would have been an equally dark and murky experience in the depressingly small world of slow-performing photo editors that also help catalog, tag, and share your work in every way imaginable. What greener pastures existed for me beyond Lightroom are quite unclear. Today, with the introduction of Lightroom 6 come speed enhancements that will keep me around at least until Lightroom 7. Yesterday, Lightroom was a brilliant all-in-one library catalogВ manager and color/tone editor that I didnвЂ™t want to live without, but that I was still considering leaving for something else. the traditional sharp-cornered square logo. The Lightroom CC logo (left) differs just slightly from the standalone Lightroom 6 logo (right) with rounded edges (reminiscent of the style of an iOS application icon) vs. But fear not:В '6' and 'CC' are effectively the same thing in terms of the desktop experience.

For the purposes of this review, 'Lightroom 6' is used to refer to the update the Lightroom 5, simple as that. Both will feature the same program while the CC version will be bundled for photographers with Photoshop CC in the Creative Cloud Photography plan for $9.99/mo and will include access to Adobe's mobile applications including Lightroom Mobile and Photoshop Mix. Performance increases were the most important to me for this release, so thatвЂ™s where IвЂ™ll startвЂ¦and thereвЂ™s quite a bit to discuss.Д«ut first, let's discuss one more thing everyone wants to know very clearly: Lightroom 6 will be available as a standalone, old-fashioned applicationВ for $149 alongside Lightroom CC. So clear your schedules, guys and gals because AdobeвЂ™s Lightroom 6 is here with more speed (FINALLY!), more features, and rich mobile integration.ДЇor those more interested in in-app features or mobile integration than performance, feel free to skip to the conveniently labeled section that most interests you. There are three things in life that photographers will clear their schedules for: Apple announcements, Nikon/Canon late-night pre-orders for new flagship bodies, and Adobe product releases.
