I read one review that said it's much faster. It may be the only reason I upgrade. The "new" radial adjustment tool that simulates CaptureNX doesn't look like it does it nearly as good as CaptureNX.

I'm interested because it means I can use LR even if I don't have a Wi-Fi signal.

Do you need to play with the appdata folder? rename old one and restart lightroom?

I see it as being snappier and more responsive for culling (since I'm culling right now).

I'll be sitting this one out for a while. Too busy with peak wedding season to play with new software.

The few new features in this release are nice, but let me know when they finally speed LR up and I'll reconsider the upgrade.

People say this with every release and the answer is always the same... "nope".

Based on feedback from the beta, there is no new speed to be found in LR5 either. Some report slower, some report faster, and many report no change. It's basically a wash.

I never upgraded to v4 but would like to consider this one, let us know what the major differences & features are that make it worthwhile.

In my experience, LR4 did a much better job at handling post production than LR3, just the look of the images were much better. I just installed LR5 and am looking forward to what I find but the reports I'm hearing there's no difference in image quality, just a few upgrades to usability and capability that I'm interested in.

It looks like they just added a bunch of image manipulation features. I'll probably skip this one.
