New Lightroom CC features and videos after the jump.

Listed on the “What’s New” page on the Adobe website are the following features:

  • HDR images made easy
  • Stunning panoramas
  • Faster performance
  • Facial recognition
  • Advanced video slide shows
  • Improved web galleries
  • Better control of filters
  • Easy photo sharing
  • Support for more devices
  • Visual storytelling
  • Copy-paste enhancements
  • Perfect presentations
  • Fast photo searching
  • Quick composition adjustment

More info on each point is available on the website and general info about Lightroom CC can be found here.
