Bugs with initial release No new presets Lacks export options to social media
Although we wouldn't say Lightroom 5 is a huge step up from Lightroom 4, the new features it offers will appeal to a wide audience, especially those who'd like to take advantage of Smart Preview editing on the move.The Radial Gradient Filter is one of...
Good performance, Excellent Develop Module for editing images, Flexible file management with Smart Previews, Impressive Upright Tool
Lackluster Slideshow module
Lightroom 5 is a practical, finely crafted version of Adobe's excellent photo management application. The Develop Module continues to be the star of the show. But Smart Previews is clever, and should be well-received by laptop-toting photographers.If you'...

Adobe's latest version of Photoshop Lightroom handles offline images a lot more gracefully than previous iterations and adds some tools that streamline local retouching
Still lacks features that some users might miss, including face detection (and related efficiencies), HDR and panorama tools and beyond-basic video support
A nice, but not necessarily must-have update, Adobe Lightroom 5 remains a strong program for working with raw images.
Not sure whether Lightroom 5 is worth the upgrade? It's not as clear-cut a decision as was moving to Lightroom 4, when the software made a major leap in functionality.Download the beta (no earlier Lightroom version or license is needed) and see whether yo...

Fast workflow, Smart Previews, Upright tool, enhanced Spot Removal tool, Radial Filter, Retina Display support, powerful RAW processing, mobile links with Adobe Revel.
No previews for Quick Develop Presets, more social media/sharing links required, relatively expensive, no GPUacceleration
Running as a 64-bit application, but still with no GPU-acceleration, Adobe's image management and correction tool scores high on the productivity scale. Smart Previews brings a video-style proxy workflow, although import time is extended, but the enhanced...
