Organize, edit, and share photos across devices.

I can't imagine organizing my 50,000+ photos without Lightroom Classic. The cataloging system is robust, and the new AI masking features have cut my editing time in half. Selecting a subject or sky with one click is incredibly accurate. I tried Capture One, but I came back to Lightroom because the ecosystem (mobile app + desktop sync) is just too convenient.

The features are great, but performance has been degrading. Importing large RAW files feels sluggish, and switching between modules in Classic has a noticeable lag even on a high-end PC. Adobe keeps adding AI features, which are cool, but I wish they would focus on optimizing the core speed. It feels bloated compared to older versions.

I use the 'CC' (cloud) version, not Classic. Being able to start an edit on my iPad Pro and finish it on my Mac is freedom. The interface is modern and less intimidating than Classic. However, it lacks some of the deep export options and plugin support of the Classic version. If you just want to edit photos and have them everywhere, it's perfect.
