Adobe Updates Lightroom 1.3, Camera Raw 4.3 Available
Adobe has recently released updates for Photoshop Lightroom and the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in.
The Lightroom 1.3 update provides added support for Apple Leopard Mac OS X 10.5 and includes a technology preview of the Lightroom Export SDK.
The Lightroom Export SDK preview allows for the development of third-party plug-ins that enables communication from the Lightroom 1.3 Export Dialog to third party tools, Web sites or devices.
“While we have received numerous requests to provide an SDK that allows for image manipulation plug-ins similar to those available for Photoshop, our current focus is to continue to enhance the digital photography workflow by improving the connection to tools, functionality and services not available in Lightroom." said Tom Hogarty, product manager for Photoshop Lightroom.
The Lightroom 1.3 includes corrections for the following issues:
· Writing XMP metadata automatically has been corrected for performance issues
· Printing with the native resolution option enabled no longer sets the wrong dimension for portrait oriented images
· Prior to Camera Raw 4.3 there was the possibility that artifacts in edge transitions could be introduced through the Bayer demosaic and luminance noise reductions algorithms. This has been corrected.
· The Canon sRAW format and the Fuji compressed RAF formats are now supported.
"The end result will allow photographers to further customize and streamline their workflows. This technology preview will give developers an opportunity to provide feedback and shape the way Lightroom's architecture will be utilized,” said Hogarty.
The Lightroom 1.3 and Camera Raw 4.3 updates also include raw file support for seven additional digital cameras including the Nikon D3, Nikon D300, Canon 1Ds Mark III, Canon PowerShot G9, Nikon D3, NikonD300, Olympus E-3, Olympus SP-560 UZ, and Panasonic DMC-L10.
The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 1.3 and Camera Raw 4.3 update is available as free downloads for existing customers on Adobe’s Website, whereas the Photoshop Lightroom Export SDK technology preview is available as a separate download on the Adobe Labs site. Photoshop Lightroom can be purchased in the United States and Canada through the Adobe Store and at major photo and software retailers for a price of USD299.
