Added 14
- You can now access Denoise , Raw Details , and Super Resolution in the Detail panel, as these features are now available as standard edit panel features.
- The Auto-XMP write process is optimized to improve overall performance and responsiveness. Lightroom Classic now temporarily pauses automatic XMP writing during imports and resumes once the import is complete. Additionally, XMP data for the active photo is written every 10 seconds, rather than after each edit, reducing interruptions during editing workflows.
- Lightroom Classic now remembers your last photo selection for up to 25 of the most recently accessed sources, including collections and folders. If no source is selected, Lightroom will default to the first photo or preserve any overlapping selection from the previously viewed source. To access this, select Preferences > File > Remember the Last Selection from a Source During the Session .
- If the Use Smart Previews instead of Originals for image editing preference is turned on, you'll now see a warning dialog at start.
- Previously, files with different names weren't recognized as duplicates, even if their content matched. Duplicate detection now also accurately identifies renamed files as duplicates.
- The following new options have been added under Library Metadata Filters > Develop and in the Smart Collection creation dialog box:
- Has Reflections removal
- Has Distracting People removal
- Has Denoise
- Has Raw Details
- Has Super Resolution
- In earlier versions, Color Labels for Folders took time to appear, particularly when expanding complex folder structures. With this update, labels now load much faster, providing a smoother and more responsive experience.
- Lightroom Classic now retains CaptureTime data with millisecond precision. This update should resolve issues where some photos captured in burst mode were incorrectly detected as duplicates. This update does not address other capture date/time precision issues.
- While locating a missing file, you can now easily locate the missing folder, in addition to the existing option to locate missing photos.
