[Leica] Adobe Lightroom's Newest Update

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

Lightroom CC seems unchanged to me - I imported some photographs only yesterday. Maybe they want to keep this as the Pro version, and downgrade the standalone one to a sort of Lightroom Elements, in order to force users to migrate to the subscription model. I have always trusted Adobe less than Nikon or Fuji, with the sort of monopoly power they have in image processing, which is why I never embraced the DNG "standard". Unfortunately, I find Photoshop indispensable, so I figured that I might as well use Lightroom as well, instead of using another RAW processor - one has to be practical, but, at the same time, be aware of the downsides that come with monopolies.
Cheers
