Adobe issues Lightroom 3.6 and ACR 6.6 release candidates

Adobe has released 'Release Candidates' of its Camera Raw 6.6 and Lightroom 3.6 raw processing software. The updates cover 5 additional cameras, namely the Canon Powershot S100, Nikon 1 J1, Nikon 1 V1, Panasonic Lumix DMX-GX1 and Samsung NX5. Also included are lens profiles for a number of recent Sigma and Nikon lenses, along with several medium format optics and the Sigma DP2x. Both updates are available from the Adobe Labs site. The company uses the term 'Release Candidate' to denote software that is well tested but not yet the final version.

I said I was stuck with JPG as the RAW software included with the camera just wasn't worth the trouble as the JPG's are very good and RAW sotfware is bare boned. That's all changed now with the Lightroom 3.6 release.
