The software is running extremely slow with catalogs of over 20,000 photos. Professional photographers and their photography community are still having slow performance issues with Luminar 4. It’s supposed to have fixed more bugs and crash issues since the January 4.1.0 update. Skylum released Luminar version 4.2.0 on March 19, 2020. You can read some of the Luminar 4 performance issues. But Skylum does offer a trial version of Luminar 4 in addition to a 30-day money-back guarantee. Users have also mentioned that Luminar 4 crashes on them. It hasn’t crashed on my Mac, yet. It’s almost like I’m working with Photoshop filters which is CPU intensive. It’ll also save time for portrait photographers since Luminar 4 has a dedicated section to quickly edit clients’ photos.īut one thing that annoys me is Luminar 4 is a bit slow in showing the preview in real-time after I make an adjustment – even a simple adjustment.

It saves so much time since it doesn’t require any masking. I’m a travel photographer and the main hype in this Luminar 4 review is its sky replacement tool. In addition, you can use my Luminar 4 coupon code for a $10 discount: aperlust. Luminar 4 was released on November 18, 2019.

All my travel photography that were captured RAW are sorted by country folders. Luminar 4 organizes images according to how you organize your files in the backend. You can also import images via an SD card by using the Import Images to a Folder option.

The software doesn’t duplicate the images, but rather it points to the images via database. The software will scan the folders and add the photos to the library.Select the folders containing your images.Luminar 4’s importing process is straightforward: Skylum is still making updates to the software, so the latest version may look or function differently from this Luminar review. I previously tested the beta version of Luminar 4, but now I have the production version that I’ll continue to review.
