Check it out here!ĭespite now dedicating efforts to keep Lightroom updated for Apple M1 and Windows Arm systems, Adobe says they haven’t given up on Intel-based machines. Available only in Australia and New Zealand, new customers can start for free and use core Lightroom features, such as the Sensei-based Auto or the Light and Color editing sliders, without a subscription or trial limits. The free Lightroom Starter plan is now available for Lightroom desktop (Mac and Win).(Lightroom iOS only, requires iOS14 and later) You can even drag these onto the Home screen for easier access. Quickly take photos and selfies using the Lightroom camera, explore Discover Edits and In-app tutorials from the Widgets screen. ProRAW is built using the Adobe DNG file format and specification.

You’ll be able to import and edit images taken in the Apple ProRAW format in the December updates to Camera Raw, Lightroom Classic, or Lightroom (desktop, iOS, Android, ). IMO except for large batch exports and large batches of 1:1 preview renders, the 16' M2 Max feels just as snappy as the Studio Ultra.As well as offering native support for M1 and Snapdragon chipsets, there are a bunch of new updates for Camera Raw, Lightroom Classic and Lightroom on all systems, including… The 16' Max models run the processor at a slightly higher base frequency that does have real-world benefits as well. The extra RAM really matters, especially if you want to drive a larger high-resolution monitor, or multiple monitors. With your money, I'd get a 16' M2 Max MBP with 64GB of RAM and a 2TB drive (it takes you just over $4K). That said, I don't feel like the minor number of GPU cores you gain on some of the upgrades matter nearly as much as the main core count and clock speed. It also just never seemed to scale really well with increased GPU power in my testing. The problem with C1 is that it leans heavily on the GPU for many tasks, even tasks where GPU + CPU would be better/faster. I haven't re-tested the latest version of CaptureOne but based on what I've read they haven't made any big improvements in performance in the last update.

Wish I could have both.ĭoes the number of GPU cores matter much for LR or C1?

The M1 Ultra’s very appealing, but so is having a laptop. I’m looking to spend around $4k and I’m leaning toward either a MBP or Studio. UPDATED: Lightroom Benchmarking: M2 and M1 Macs and PCs.
