Lightroom 6 Upgrade Download
In Lightroom Creative Cloud, Adobe is adding a feature called Best Shots. It uses an AI algorithm to first group together your images, selecting the most compelling one in any series of photos. For photographers, Adobe has developed a somewhat different piece of software called Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. As the name suggests, Photoshop blood runs in the family, but Lightroom is vastly different from its bigger brother. Adobe Lightroom update adds support for Apple silicon and ProRAW One of the most important apps for professional photographers is now up to date with Apple's latest offerings.
Lightroom as a native Apple M1 and Win Arm app
I'm excited to announce that the latest version of Adobe Lightroom is now a native app for both Apple M1 and Windows Arm platforms.
We rebuilt Lightroom to take advantage of the newest performance and power efficiency benefits of the Apple M1 and Qualcomm Snapdragon (for Windows 10) processors.

As we're getting started on desktop Arm / Apple M1, we'll continue to optimize for Arm and M1 in subsequent releases. And if you're on an Intel based computer, don't worry…we'll continue to invest in and improve Lightroom for you too. 2tb drive price.
