Adobe Camera Raw 6.4/Lightroom 3.4

The final (not beta or release candidate) versions of Adobe latest raw conversion engine are now available. There are no significant enhancements for Sony files, as the latest RC version was already up to date with all required camera raw filetypes. No new Sony lenses have been added to the Lens Profiles, but we would point out that the last Sony lens profiles issued included some created here at Icon Publications Ltd, and these (such as the profile for 16mm f/2.8 NEX lens) have not been replaced.

Adobe clearly relies on input from owners so rather than complain about lens profiles missing, download the profiling kit and submit some to Adobe to add to the Minolta/Sony options!

You can find the latest versions of ACR, DNG Converter, and LR here:

The ACR 6.4 plugin can update Photoshop CS5 only, or Elements 9. If you have an older program, download the DNG Converter to be able to process the raw files from newer cameras (NEX, SLT, 560, 580 etc).
