What stands out
Version updates
Version 1.28.1
Luminar 1.28.1: Better DNG support, faster editing and more We’re excited to introduce Luminar 1.28.1, an update focused on making RAW editing more reliable, sharing Luminar easier, and everyday editing faster. With improved DNG support, quicker tools, and broader camera compatibility, this version gives you a smoother editing experience from import to export. Let’s explore what’s new: • Better DNG support. Luminar now uses the official Adobe DNG SDK for DNG handling, helping more DNG files open as they were recorded by your camera, with more accurate color and white balance. Apple ProRAW photos from iPhone now open properly and are ready for full RAW editing in Develop. We’ve also added support for DNG files compressed with the JPEG XL codec, so you no longer need to convert them in another editor before working with them in Luminar. • Invite friends. Sharing Luminar with friends is now easier than ever. The rebuilt referral program is available directly from the left sidebar, Luminar menu, and Account menu. Simply open Invite friends, grab your personal link, and share Luminar with anyone who would enjoy a better way to edit photos. • Faster exports. Batch export is now around 15% faster, helping large sets of photos finish sooner. Spend less time waiting for your files and more time editing — or simply get your work done faster. • Faster editing tools. Details now works up to 40% faster, while Bokeh AI is about 15% faster. Enjoy more responsive previews while fine-tuning your edits, with less waiting when working with heavier tools. You’ll also find improved camera support for Apple, Samsung, Google, and DJI DNG RAWs, giving you more flexibility when working with photos from a wider range of devices. Warning: Starting with the next release, Luminar will no longer support macOS 12 Monterey. The minimum supported version will be macOS 13 Ventura. If you’re using macOS 12, your current version of Luminar will continue to work, but you won’t receive future updates until you upgrade your system. Update and explore the latest version now! Bug fixes: • Switch smoothly to Catalog without panels disappearing when using keyboard shortcuts. • Export multiple edited photos reliably without getting stuck when using previous export settings. • Remove individual images easily from Focus Stacking and Panorama Stitching. • Keep Luminar on Mobile photos organized when moving them between nodes. • Access presets, tools, Generative tools, and filmstrip controls smoothly without buttons becoming unresponsive on macOS Golden Gate. • Select preset categories easily on macOS Golden Gate. • Expand the Layers panel easily with the “+” control without issues on macOS Golden Gate. • No longer encounter unwanted artifacts on image edges when correcting Chromatic Aberration in certain DNG files. • Open DNG photos with more accurate white balance for more natural-looking results. • Get cleaner highlights in DNG photos exported from third-party software without unwanted pink color casts.

Luminar 1.28.0: Meet a fresh design in Luminar We’re excited to introduce Luminar 1.28.0 — the first stage of a major redesign that makes editing more intuitive while delivering faster performance throughout the app. The updated navigation and workspace make your tools easier to access today, while laying the foundation for even more improvements coming later this year. Let's explore what's new: Catalog and Edit are now one space. No more switching between separate modes — Presets, Tools, and Edit are now together in one panel on the right, so everything you need is always within easy reach. New navigation. Easily keep track of where you are with breadcrumbs, move between photos using familiar back and forward buttons, and hide the Catalog panel whenever you want more room to edit. A redesigned right sidebar. Quickly access Presets, Tools, Edit, a photo’s Info, and Extra tools from one organized sidebar. The Extra tools contain GenErase, GenSwap, GenExpand, Upscale AI, HDR Merge, Panorama Stitching, and more. Everything one click away. Your account is now available from the left sidebar, Education brings guides and tutorials together in one place, and the new full-screen Creative Library makes browsing creative assets easier than ever. Expanded camera support. Now you can edit photos taken with the Leica SL3-P, Leica M11-P, Panasonic Lumix DC-L10, Sony A7R VI, and Sony A7 V (compressed RAW). You’ll also notice a range of performance improvements: Blazing-fast exports — export photos up to 27% faster on both Windows and macOS, so you spend less time waiting. Instant Preset previews — preview Presets up to 3.8× faster, making it easier to browse and compare different looks. Smoother batch editing — edit large groups of photos much faster while using fewer system resources. More efficient masking — masking tools now use up to 33% less memory, delivering a smoother editing experience, especially with large images. Update and explore the new design of Luminar with improved speed, performance, and a more streamlined editing experience. Bug fixes: Fixed an issue that could duplicate photos in the Catalog. Fixed an issue where the previously selected export subfolder wasn't remembered. Fixed Noiseless AI not working correctly on RAW monochrome photos. Fixed Face Light overexposing RAW images. Fixed inaccurate white balance values when using the Eyedropper tool.
