It means we can place all our panels and tools on our secondary screen, leaving our main display free to display the image as large as possible. Using dual monitors is essential to many photographers. Powered by machine learning, this is the future of image cataloguing – and great news for those who hate keywording. But the clever thing is that it can recognise subjects and types of scene – like the search for trees here – even if there are no keywords or tags attached to the images. As you’d expect, this lets you search your image library. One of the stand-out features in LR CC that isn’t on offer in LR Classic is the Search bar. However LR Classic’s Collections are more advanced, with options to create Smart Collections based on parameters like camera data or star ratings. LR CC doesn’t have Collections, but it does have Albums, which work in the same way. They let you create groups and categories of images without needing to shift around files or make copies. By contrast, other than an ‘Add to an album’ option the CC import dialog is completely bare.Įxperienced LR Classic users will be aware of the power of Collections. Among the comprehensive options, you can apply presets on import, convert to DNG, add keywords, create collections and much more. The Import dialog is one of the cherished features of LR Classic (so much so that when Adobe tried to ‘simplify’ it a couple of years ago the uproar caused an immediate U-turn). For those who edit on the go, the seamless workflow offered by CC is the better option. All changes sync and update, so you can begin editing on your desktop, then switch to your tablet or phone – and everything is synced. LR CC has been designed to work seamlessly across all your devices. But even with Adobe’s 1TB of cloud storage, space will be more limited on the cloud and uploading photos may take time. The cloud offers ease of use across devices and is arguably safer than local storage (unless you’ve adopted a rigorous backup routine). The big question is, which version is right for you?ĭo you want to store all your photos on the cloud or locally on a hard drive? This decision goes to the heart of the Classic vs CC debate. However there are fundamental differences. Both also let you organise photos with flags and stars. The Develop controls are mostly the same: there are near-identical tonal sliders, selective adjustments, tone curve, split toning, HSL controls, black & white tools, presets, profiles, spot removal and more.

Alternatively, you can get all three apps plus the 1TB cloud storage for $19.99 a month.īoth versions share a range of useful features. The second option, which is also $9.99 a month, gets you LR CC with a healthy 1TB cloud storage, but no Photoshop CC or LR Classic. However this only comes with 20GB of cloud storage, which is unlikely to be enough if you want to embrace the LR CC workflow fully. At $9.99 a month, the Photography Plan gets you both versions of Lightroom – Classic vs CC – plus Photoshop CC.
Instead, original photos are uploaded to online cloud storage so they can be accessed, edited and synced across your desktop, tablet and phone.Īdobe offers three Lightroom and/or Photoshop plans.
By contrast, the new LR CC departs from the traditional method of storing photos on a local drive. Lightroom Classic (previously LR CC) is the same app many LR users have been enjoying for years. Lightroom now exists in two main forms: Classic and CC. Long-term users and beginners alike may be confused about their Lightroom options. Adobe offers three Lightroom and/or Photoshop plans 1.
