Adobe continues to deliver on its promise of steady updates for photographers subscribing to its Creative Cloud Photography plan. This week, Adobe updated the desktop versions of Lightroom and Photoshop with lots of bug fixes (especially to Lightroom), new camera and lens support (including for the new Sony a6300), and (finally) an updated UI for Adobe Camera Raw. Lightroom for the web has also been enhanced with intelligent object-recognition-based indexing for more powerful search, like this one for trees in my online collections…

To enable Object indexing, simply click on the “Open Technology Previews” dialog on your Lightroom web page, and turn on search. Indexing will take awhile, but the site will let you know when it is ready.

Users of CC can update to the latest “.5” versions simply using the built-in Adobe Creative Cloud app update feature. Adobe’s fix (and new camera support) list is below:

Lightroom CC 2015.5 now available

Lightroom CC 2015.5 and Lightroom 6.5 are now available on Adobe.com.  Our focus with this release was to add support for new cameras and lenses, and also fix many bugs that existed in previous versions of Lightroom.

Thank you for all your feedback and passion for Lightroom.

Bugs Fixed in Lightroom CC 2015.5 / 6.5

• Bug fixes related to Panorama Merge
  • Scared that pesky sensor dust spots will ruin your perfect pano? No problem, remove spots in 1 image and then merge to pano. Lightroom takes care of the rest.
  • Boundary Warp gets better as we fixed a bunch of bugs
  • Removed the ‘auto’ projection option. Turns out, it always picked the same projection mode.
• Other Bug Fixes
  • Rename failed if raw+jpeg pairs were copied to a second location
  • Shooting tethered, shutter button will not move to top of the screen
  • The video cache was not correctly limited to the size set in Preferences
  • Photomerge fails with virtual copies
  • Impromptu slideshow gave error message “video support is disabled”
  • Import didn’t work if you weren’t signed in
  • Certain dates couldn’t be entered in Edit Capture Time dialog (1966, 1969, 1999, etc.)
  • Videos wouldn’t play on some systems
  • Slideshow module wouldn’t work on some systems
  • Fixed a ton of sync errors. Faster sync to the Lightroom iOS and Android apps
  • Scrolling through images in Loupe view with your mouse is back! (sorry that it went away in the first place)
  • Slideshows are back in high-resolution. Fixed a bug that caused them to appear much lower res than expected
  • Books are made for browsing. We’ve reinstated scroll bars so that you can browse faster in the Book module
  • Incorrect value for EXIF:ColorSpace in exported TIFFs
  • After export shortcut CTRL+ALT+S not working in Develop
  • Crashes when tethered to Canon cameras (5dm3, 5ds, 1dsm3)
  • SDK broken edit_field’s validate function, disabling existing plugins
  • Months in non-English configurations show in English
  • Secondary Window blocks mouse clicks even when closed after switching desktop spaces
