Then Adobe added a Creative Cloud version of Lightroom and named this Lightroom CC. Up until now we’ve had Lightroom version 1-6 also known as Lightroom Standalone. Let’s start with the apparent name change. In this article I will analyse the impact this may have for the hobbyist and enthusiast photographer out there as I feel most “reviews” focus mostly on the features of the app and looking at it from the professional photographers perspective, but there are may out there that are not professional and only use Lightroom for their personal use, so is it worth switching to the subscription model if you are currently using the standalone model and what the heck is the difference between Lightroom Classic CC and Lightroom CC!? What is the difference?

In the aftermath of Adobe’s Lightroom announcement earlier in the week that left some frustrated, angry or just plain confused, have you given any thought of what you are going to do? Should you stay with Lightroom or will you jump ship now that it is only available via subscription? Or having trouble deciding on which Lightroom version you should choose?
