Lightroom 6
#Lightroom 6 1080p
delivering graphics in full 1080p high-definition glory…until an old friend pulled it out one time to prove me oh so wrong). This memory could be somewhat inaccurate and simply relative to what was available back then (the same way that I once remembered Nintendo 64’s Super Smash Bros. I have this lovely memory of the original Lightroom being instant with every edit.

In the Develop module, very seldom did it take even close to a full second to be ready to edit the image. Changing from one file to another in the Library module takes about two seconds until the newly selected image is loaded. Each of those times easily went down by two thirds. These times are quite general and change from time to time, but the feeling and time savings is very real, much in part to Adobe as it finally began tapping into that video card to help processing. Naturally, this made culling extremely difficult in either module. And then waiting for a photo to be ready to edit took another three seconds, minimum, after selecting it. Switching to the develop module always took several seconds as well. Despite my fairly speedy SSD, dedicated video card, and 16GB of RAM, waiting for an image to finish “Loading,” as Lightroom likes to call it, took about 5 seconds in the Library module (after running for a few minutes, that is…since it was always fairly fast for a minute or two right after starting up). Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, Evernote, Creative Cloud – nothing was turned off. 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 that’s all a moot point, now – and thank God (I mean…thank some engineers at Adobe, I guess).įor those interested, all of these times are based on a very real-world environment on my 15” 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 catalog manager and color/tone editor that I didn’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: "6" and "CC" are effectively the same thing in terms of the desktop experience.

#Lightroom 6 update
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 that’s where I’ll start…and there’s quite a bit to discuss.īut first, let's discuss one more thing everyone wants to know very clearly: Lightroom 6 will be available as a standalone, old-fashioned application for $149 alongside Lightroom CC.
#Lightroom 6 free
So clear your schedules, guys and gals because Adobe’s Lightroom 6 is here with more speed (FINALLY!), more features, and rich mobile integration.įor 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.
