Lightroom 5.6 - anyone upgraded yet?

[ancient_mariner]

I was notified the upgrade was available yesterday, but before I do the upgrade, was wondering if anyone else had done it & whether it had been trouble-free?

Installed it last night without any issues so far

 

[mickledore]

Yep, just done it. Took about 15 mins in all. All went trouble-free.

This 5.6 update was quick on the heels on 5.5. Surprised they didn't bundle the two together - unless it was to fix issues with 5.5?

(Puts on cynical voice.....) .......it usually is to fix problems introduced by the previous version.......

Upgraded, it's fine. No fix for the inability to correctly read white balance from Fuji Xt1 raw files though.

It was released to coincide with the Nikon D810 i believe? Can't see any differences myself.

I never had any "issues" with 5.5 and so far 5.6 doesn't appear to be any different.
Apart from supporting three new cameras, I think the main change is Lens Correction for a greater number of lenses.

Installed it on iMac and MacBook Pro with no problems

Installed - no probs - removed 5.5 desktop icon - usually leaves the previous one there?

Mine was still there so I removed it and replaced it with 5.6

No problems, works well and the D810's NEFs can now all be imported with no problem.
