Lightroom Updates – What’s New in Lightroom?

 

If you’re a subscriber to Adobe’s Creative Cloud then you probably already know that one of the benefits is that you get frequent updates. Rather than waiting 6, 12 or even 18 months to update the software (like companies used to do), when Adobe has features ready, they release them as a “dot” update.

So if you’re ever looking to find out what’s new in Lightroom then this page is your one-stop shop. Not only can you see the most recent update, but you can also scroll down and find past updates because you never know what you may have missed.
