Adobe launches Lightroom 6 with performance improvements and some new features

Probably most photographers have ever used Lightroom to edit their photos. Lightroom is Adobe software that's designed specifically for editing and organizing photos, more specific than the image manipulation functions offered by Photoshop. There are many reasons why photographers love to choose Lightroom as favorite photo editing software. Lightroom offers easy operation system and a complete range of tools to beautify their photographs.

After nearly two years Lightroom 5 has operated, now Adobe releases a new successor for this software: Lightroom 6. The Adobe Lightroom 6 brings a number of new features and improvements in overall performance.

Lightroom 6 different exposure

Lightroom 6 users can now create high-contrast images with HDR Merge tool. Simply put, this tool allows you to combine multiple photos with different exposure settings into one image with high dynamic range.

Lightroom 6 face recognition

Lightroom 6 also presents the Panorama Merge tool, where you can combine multiple images - RAW format is also supported - into a single panoramic picture. At the same time, Facial Recognition tool is able to recognize different faces in each photo so that you can create categories based on each individual.

Filter in Lightroom 6 can also be tethered to certain areas using Filter Brush tool. You can choose which parts of the photo that want to be edited with precision.

Lightroom 6 movie

Adobe Lightroom 6 now also serves as movie maker software that allows you to combine multiple photos, videos and music with beautiful effects such as panning or zooming.

In addition, Lightroom 6 now feels much more responsive than its predecessor; the improvement of processing speed can reach up to 10 times.

Adobe Lightroom 6 now can be purchased for $ 149. Lightroom 6 is also available as part of Adobe Creative Cloud subscription service with the name Lightroom CC. The main benefit you can get if you choose to subscribe with the Lightroom CC rather than buying Lightroom 6 separately is the synchronization with Lightroom Mobile, which is now also available for Android tablets.

Not only sync with its mobile version, Lightroom CC also integrates with Adobe Voice and Adobe Slate applications on iPad. Simply put, you can create content in both the applications by utilizing the photos stored on your Lightroom CC library.
