SUMMARY

Skylum's Luminar Neo has released version 1.27.1, introducing the ability to import Lightroom Classic libraries. This feature allows users to transfer photos, folders, albums, ratings, and basic edits without rebuilding their catalog from scratch. The original Lightroom catalog remains untouched. However, Skylum warns of potential color rendering differences due to Luminar Neo's distinct image engine, and raw files from unsupported cameras may not open correctly. The update also includes expanded camera compatibility for Ricoh GR IV models and general bug fixes.
