Adobe Camera Raw 8.8 Now Available

Adobe has released ACR 8.8 as a final release for both Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC users.

For Lightroom users and those using older versions of Photoshop, the company has released DNG Converter 8.8.

Other than a few minor bug fixes, ACR 8.8 added support for ten new cameras including the Canon EOS Rebel T6I (750D) and Rebel T6s (760D), Nikon D5500 and Olympus OM-D E-M5 II.

It also adds profile support for a list of lenses in Canon, Nikon F, Sony Alpha, Sony E, Pentax, Sigma, Leica, MFT, DJI and Yuneec mounts.

I assume Photoshop CS6 users will only receive the new camera and lens support, not the bug fixes, as was the case when ACR 8 was released.

The list of newly supported lenses includes the Nikkor 300mm f/4E PF ED VR, Sigma’s 50mm f/1.4 in Sony Alpha mount and the new Sony E mount lenses we recently reported.

Surprisingly, Canon’s 11-24mm record breaking wide angle lens is not on the list.

ACR 8.8 can be downloaded via the Creative Cloud app, while DNG Converter 8.8 can be downloaded in the Windows or Mac links.

The “Edit in Photoshop” function in Lightroom stopped working after this ACR update ;(

  I just tried it on CS6 and LR 5 and it worked with no problem.

I was able to update Photoshop CS6 to CR 8.8, but Lightroom still reports it’s using CR 8.7.1 and that it’s up to date. How does one update Lightroom 5 to CR 8.8?
