Of course, $10/month isn’t necessarily a bad gig for Photoshop CC and Lightroom CC, but I know there are loads of users who will be up in arms over this move and what it potentially foreshadows for Lightroom’s future.
Maybe these observations are overreactions however, it seems like the writing may be on the wall for perpetual licenses of Lightroom. Lightroom CC owners, on the other hand, get new features today and probably several more times before Lightroom 7 is released. New camera support and bug fixes are the only updates that Lightroom 6 owners can expect to receive going forward. However, Lightroom 6 will get no new features. Additionally, the Adobe representative said that Adobe would determine the future of perpetual licensed products based on market demand. I asked Adobe about this decision last week and whether or not the standalone version of Lightroom was on a path to its end of life and was told that currently, there is currently no plan to end Lightroom as a perpetual license product. We saw a major update of Lightroom CC and the standalone Lightroom (to version 6) earlier this spring however, the key editing features remained the same in both versions of Lightroom. Lightroom CC has had some sync and mobile connectivity features over the past year or two that the standalone versions of Lightroom did not have. Now, unfortunately, we are at the same crossroads with Lightroom. We saw this happen when Photoshop 6 was cut off from further upgrades (other than bug fixes and new camera support) while Photoshop CC continued to have new features added to it.
Lightroom CC gets a new Dehaze feature however, for the first time, Lightroom CC and Lightroom 6 are on diverging upgrade paths.īy the way, Dehaze is the feature for which we saw a sneak peek just a week or so ago. Adobe has issued a big update for Creative Cloud today with new features for both Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC.
