Feature updates

  • Connect supported Canon, Nikon, Sony, and Fujifilm cameras to shoot directly into Lightroom. Use Live View and overlays, apply presets and keywords automatically, work with multiple cameras, and troubleshoot connection issues using diagnostic logs. Tethered capture is also available in Local mode.
  • Add soft, cinematic light effects using six styles, including Bloom, Halation, Diffusion, and more. Apply effects to the entire photo or specific masked areas, and save, sync, or revisit your adjustments.
  • Eliminate blemishes, moles, and freckles with the AI-powered blemish removal tool. Use the Refine brush and Fade controls to fine-tune the result.
  • Fix blinks or closed eyes using eye details from another photo of the same person using AI-powered Open Eyes (Early Access).
  • View selected photos together to compare similar shots and quickly choose the best one. Survey view supports full-screen viewing, drag-and-drop reordering, keyboard shortcuts, and selections of more than 25 photos.
  • Use Color Grading wheels within a mask to independently adjust the color and mood of specific areas.
  • Create depth-based masks even when a photo lacks depth information. Lightroom uses AI to generate a depth map, allowing you to select and adjust the foreground, middle ground, or background areas.
