A few weeks ago we posted that Adobe Lightroom 6 would be released on March 9, 2015, as per an Amazon date leak on Amazon UK. We were told a couple of days later that this date was incorrect, but we failed to update the post to reflect that. We’ve seen a second date from an Amazon Japan leak that stated the release date would be March 20, 2015. We cannot confirm this date either.
All that we do know is Adobe has said Lightroom 6 would be released some time in March, so we don’t have too long to wait.
Some key features coming in Adobe Lightroom 6:
- Environment nondestructive
Unleash your creativity in a nondestructive editing environment that allows you to test your ideas freely. The originals remain intact and you can easily cancel your edits or save multiple versions of a cliché. - Advanced conversion feature black and white
