Hello,

that's all very interesting, but Hans initial question ' where is Lightroom 6' is still not answered !

And I add that I've got the feeling that the guys who should know like Jeff, Madmanchan, Thomas Knoll, etc. make themselves scarce. At least it's been a long time since I have read anything written by them.

Well, I can't say anything about Thomas & Eric but, in my case I just got back from a 2 week photo trip to the South West with my daughter. And, while I saw this thread, I wasn't particularly interested in posting because, well, I know when LR 6 will be released and no, I can't say anything about it. Neither could Eric nor Thomas.

So, you all are just gonna have to wait...

Schewe is right, a usual.

But I can state the answer definitively: Lightroom 6 will appear when it gets here, and not a minute sooner or later.  :D

Guys,
 The jpegs are for editing only. The client takes them home, edits and sometimes shows them to clients for approval. Then the raw is retouched. The finals are for major billboard and ad campaigns that have tons of post work. Jpeg isn't an option. Period. In the end one or two images is all that is chosen. Sometimes more but usually one or 2.
 As to export during the day, you are at your clients command. Sometimes at the end of the day they want to add tweaks to color, contrast etc and then get them exported. Every job is different. What I do know is LR could be improved and be better than it is......LR has some advantages, C1 has some advantages. I was posting here as some Adobe people do read this and I wanted to catch their ear as to what I need(maybe not everyone else)
It just seems to me if LR is already making the previews why not be able to export them as oppose to go back to the raw. C1 has a feature that I can go from the raw or just export a quick jpeg from the previews.

RAW + jpeg not an option?  Other than storage space increase it seems like this is exactly what a RAW + jpeg approach to shooting would be good for.

Why all the stramash about a release date for Lightroom 6?

Surely any sane person would prefer a much longer series of free decimal point upgrades to 5.6 rather than an integer update for which we will be expected to pay some exhorbitant price.

Well, probably because:

1) Updates to 5.x include almost no new functionality. They include new camera support, and they include bug fixes, but rarely do they include lots of new features.

2) It won't really cost me a cent. I get Lightroom and Photoshop for $10/month. I expect with Lightroom 6 comes out, I'll keep paying $10/month and just get it. I know I know... buy versus rent yadda yadda ... it's cheap.

No problem, Jeff...but do let us know when you next schedule a weeks visit with Michael and Chris in Canada or Mexico, won't you? ;)

Not to mention which the jpeg's probably do not even need to be large jpeg either so even further reducing the size.

Yes, Kevin was in Chicago.  Short and productive meeting with Jeff on future projects and some fun time.  Also, personal time, as I had a son graduate Navy boot camp.  And,  I spent a few early mornings taking photos.  Spent one morning with one of Luminous-Landscape's readers.  What a nice morning.

Now I have one day to pack before heading to Scotland to lead a sold out workshop there.

You should pay the Peak District a visit sometime, if you've not been there yet.
This is a short bike ride from where I live in Sheffield and the lovely countryside is in fact why I live in Sheffield. Greenest city in Europe.  ;D
