Adobe has just released the latest updates to Lightroom and Camera RAW. Besides fixing the problems created in the last update (LR 1.4 and CR 4.4), they’ve added support for a few more cameras.

If you kept Lightroom 1.4 (hoping for a new update from Adobe) and converted files to DNG you’ll need to run that process again. DNG files created under v1.4 can’t be read using LR 1.4.1 due to an error in the processing. Do a search by date for DNG files to identify those you need to redo.

Lightroom users also need to pay attention to the instructions on the download page. Adobe suggests doing a backup of your catalog prior to the update. They have further instructions on what to do if the backup fails the Integrity check. (Fortunately, all my catalogs went fine)

You can get Lightroom 1.4.1 and Camera RAW 4.4.1 from Adobes Updates Download website. Mac and Windows versions are there.
