Lightroom 4.2 Is Out!

A while back, Adobe made a release candidate available for Lightroom 4.2. So we knew the full release was coming soon and now it’s here. Tom Hogarty (Lightroom’s product manager) has a full list of what’s in this release but here’s the highlights:
– Some bug fixes (mostly things that I haven’t personally experienced)
– Support for new cameras in tethered capture (yes, the D800 and D4)
– Updated profiles for some new lenses

You can either go to the Help menu to check for updates to get 4.2 or hit Adobe’s website.
– Mac version
– PC version

    Hi, I just updated from 4.1 to 4.2 and now LR crashes after every first start. According to Adobe forum that is a problem many users have. I use Win 7 64bit. Have soneine similar problems? Thanks!

    Matt:

    Installed LR 4.2. Now when I g to CS5 from LR, it tells me I amy have may encounter problems in CS5 because it is looking for cameral raw 7.2. In cs5 I can’t update to 7.2. This is a similar problem with every update in LR4. Will these two programs ever be on the same page?

    Matt, I fixed the typo in your otherwise excellent post. 🙂

    Matt,
    Can’t get Camera RAW 7.2 to load/update in Photoshop CS6 Extended. We download the NEW DNG 7/2 Converter but PS CS6 still says ACR is 7/1. Suggestions?

    Is there any way to get it to actually update the existing install or is uninstalling the old version than installing the new version the only way to go?
