Lightroom CC will even choose your best photos, but the feature isn’t yet built into the application.

Using object-recognition technology, Lightroom CC can search for objects and popular landmarks, which means even if you don’t organize your photos, you’ll probably still be able to find that photo you are looking for.īoth versions include the tools to rate and flag individual photos. But Lightroom CC uses artificial intelligence (Adobe Sensei) to search through your photos, a feature Classic doesn’t have. Lightroom Classic has Smart Collections to create custom automatic collections that Lightroom CC doesn’t have. Images are also automatically sorted by date and are accessible that way as well, without any extra steps to set up the dated albums. Lightroom CC switches to an album nomenclature, but albums work similarly to collections.

“Smart Collections” lets users create groups of photos instantly by setting parameters, such as selecting photos taken with a specific lens or images with a specific rating. Lightroom Classic organizes photos into collections and collection sets, and includes an option to navigate using the folders on the desktop. Winner: Lightroom Classic ORGANIZING PHOTOS This creates a simplified screen that’s easier for beginners to get started with, but skips out on time-saving options like adding a preset to all photos on import. Lightroom CC, on the other hand, has just the option for adding to an album. The import window includes options to add to collections, adjust metadata, add keywords, change the destination, and even apply presets while importing.

Lightroom Classic’s import options aren’t changing with the latest version. $9.99/month with 1 TB storage or $19.99/month with storage and Photoshop
