It's Finally Safe to Upgrade to Lightroom 2015 6.3
In a recent Lightroom update, Adobe decided to make major changes to the import process, in order to appeal to a more consumer level user. However, the current Lightroom users were outraged with the performance problems, the removal of important features, and the crashing of Apple computers. Luckily Adobe listened to their customers and created an update called 1015.3 or 6.3 which returned the import process back to normal. It's now safe to update your Lightroom again. This update seems to be stable, but only time will tell since it just came out. Check out the list below to see what else is in this update.
New Camera Support
Lightroom will now import files from the following new cameras: Canon EOS M10, Canon PowerShot G5 X, Canon PowerShot G9 X, Fujifilm X-T1 IR, Leica SL (Typ 601), Sony RX1R II (DSC-RX1RM2). Click here for a list of all cameras supported in Lightroom 6 (and other Lightroom versions. The title says Camera Raw, but the righthand column shows Lightroom support.)
New Tethering Support
Lightroom will now allow you to shoot tethered with the following additional cameras: Canon EOS 5DS, Canon EOS 5DS R, Canon EOS T6i / 750D, Canon EOS T6s / 760D. With your camera connected to your computer via USB, you can automatically import photos into Lightroom as you shoot. Click here for a list of all cameras supported for tethered capture.
