“Since Lightroom mobile is a service, it is available only via membership
plans. Lightroom 5 perpetual license does not include access to
Lightroom mobile.”
thanks, but no thanks.
No mention of Lightroom 5.5 released today:
Support for syncing star ratings and custom sort order to Lightroom mobile
and Lightroom web.
Fixes for bugs introduced in earlier versions of Lightroom 5.
Camera support for additional new lenses and cameras.
Adobe Creative Cloud, no thanks. It’s is a ripoff.
My workflow is Aperture to Smugmug. I can share/show any images, and can backup all files in private folders.
No one measures up to Adobe’s standards for professional work. Whether one likes the subscription model or not, Adobe is the industry standard. And that’s not going to change any time soon.
“Industry standard” = lowest common denominator. When it comes to designing user interfaces, they’re clueless. LR’s UI is cluttered, hard to read, unintuitive, and modal (!!!). And, don’t get me started on Photoshop’s UI. It’s as elegant and user-friendly as Windows 3.1, Wordstar and dBase III.
Who cares about industry standard? The only question is what package is appropriate for YOUR workflow. I could not care less about what some other person or agency does, I only want the software I need to get my work done.
Well, very true, and since adobe is Mac/Windows only it’s not for me.
I’m on linux on which there are just few good options, among them Rawtherapee, Lightzone, Bibble/Aftershot(paid).
I’ve used Bibble Pro for linux for years until it became Corel Aftershot Pro now developpement isn’t that extensive anymore imo so meanwhile i’ve been looking around and found Darkroom a potential candidate.
Sorry Darktable not Darkroom

Adobe CC? No, never this problematic junk.
Lightroom Mobile? Yes, Yes, good job. Just, where is the Android version? And, why it has to sync over cloud, the lovely way to loose your work, rights and privacy? No, thanks. 🙁
Darn, I was expecting a LR6 announcement!
LightRoom 5.5 with GH4 full compatibility !
No Jolla version? Boo!
I really love the idea of RAW developing in a top specced tablet, but I hate even more the idea of digital handcuffs on my RAW files.
I’m out! Either way, no Android, no deal… 😛
