Whether you want to remove distracting people from the background of an image, enhance your HDR shots with just a click, or get rid of all those annoying duplicate shots in your photo library, the latest updates of Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw will help you take your photo editing to the next level.
Innovation to empower creativity We're excited to announce the arrival of two new AI-powered editing features in Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw: Adaptive Profiles and Distraction Removal. These tools unlock new ways for you to edit your photos and reduce the tedious repetition required for common tasks.
Realistically enhance HDR photos with Adaptive Profiles Available in Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom for mobile (iOS & Android), Lightroom for web, and Adobe Camera Raw
Adaptive Profiles, which help you quickly create great-looking HDR images, are now generally available in both color and black & white across the entire Lightroom ecosystem.
First introduced in Camera Raw last fall, Adaptive Profiles dynamically adjust the tones and colors of your photos, creating an enhanced , yet realistic , starting point for further editing. Unlike traditional presets and profiles with universal settings, Adaptive Profiles adapt to your image. An AI model analyzes your photo and adjusts tones and colors to make them look just right. The effect is as if the AI had changed Exposure, Shadows, Highlights, Color Mixer, Curves, and other controls for you, although the actual controls stay in their original neutral position.
Adaptive Profiles build on our existing support for HDR workflows. They're just the latest improvement of many since we first introduced support for creating and editing high dynamic range images in 2023.

Remove distracting people from your photos Available in Early Access in Adobe Camera Raw, coming soon to Lightroom
Removing distractions has long been a tedious and manual task for many photographers. Today, photos full of distractions either take ages to edit, or you may have no choice but to throw them out entirely. We want to make it much easier to not only identify unwanted distractions in your photos but remove them in just a few clicks.
Distraction Removal, now available in Camera Raw as a Tech Preview and coming soon to Lightroom, can detect and remove common distractions in your photos like unwanted people. From eliminating photobombers at a photo shoot to combating the crowds in family vacation photos, you can now easily achieve clean, professional-looking results in moments. And if you have trouble with annoying window reflections, check out the Distraction Removal feature for removing window reflections we launched in December.

You asked, we listened In addition to innovating for the future, Lightroom is also committed to building features that our community has been asking for. These improvements will streamline your workflows and make your life easier.
Save time managing your photo library Available in Early Access in Lightroom on the web
Organizing and managing the hundreds or thousands of images in your photo library is one of the most tedious and time-consuming parts of photography. We've begun experimenting with some powerful new tools in Lightroom on the web that are designed to make it easier to identify the right photos for continued editing and remove unneeded ones.
One of the biggest annoyances is tracking down the duplicate images that always seem to find their way into your library. Today, that's getting easier with the launch of Find Duplicates, now available in early access as part of the Clean Up tool in Lightroom on the web.
Clean Up is one of the features that makes Lightroom on the web a great lightweight tool for quickly viewing, organizing, and managing the photos you have saved in the cloud. In addition to identifying duplicate shots, Clean Up also helps you find blurry photos, screenshots, and other unwanted images.
Intuitive Focus Point Selection for Tether Live View Available in Lightroom Classic
Getting the perfect shot during your live photo session is now easier than ever with Lightroom Classic's new Focus Point Selection tool. When tethered to Lightroom Classic, you can change your camera's autofocus mode in the Tether Live View window and simply click on your desired subject. No more fiddling with Auto Focus or manual near/far focus buttons - just point and click to get the right focus every time.
This is especially handy when your camera is set up in a tricky spot, like high above your head for a bird's-eye-view shot. Plus, it's much easier to set the focus point on the larger, live-view window than on the smaller camera screen. Whether you're focusing on a model's eye or another object, this tool gives you the confidence that you're capturing the perfect shot. The feature is available for supported Sony, Nikon, and Canon cameras.
Enhanced sharing experiences Available in Lightroom Mobile (iOS)
For most photographers, the point of capturing a great image is to share it. So we're making it faster, ea
