Hi
[!firstname_fix],
I wanted to let you know that Skylum Software is running a special flash sale on Luminar right now. For the next 4 days you can get Luminar 2018 for only $49, which is the lowest price it's ever been offered. (Only $39 to upgrade from the original version of Luminar.)
Built with the mindset that photo editing should be a fun, creative task, Luminar offers a distinct alternative for people who are frustrated with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop, or who just don't want to pay for an Adobe
Subscription.
Since it was first introduced back in 2016, Luminar has won many "Best Of" software awards, and it's seen numerous updates, which have improved the overall speed and performance of the program by considerable amounts. Luminar 2018 is the current version, and in addition to the massive number of upgrades, new tools, faster RAW rendering, Luminar now fully supports Windows, and all of the features have now caught up to
the Mac version.
Luminar's Upcoming Catalog Module
As you may know, Skylum has been working furiously on a brand new Catalog Module, which will be brought to Luminar 2018 later this year. This has been the topic of much speculation
ever since it was announced last fall, and people are getting pretty antsy to see it released.
I've talked with a few of the Luminar software engineers and their CEO about the catalog system, and I know they're waiting to release it until they get it right. They're building it from the ground up,
and they want to make sure that it offers a fast, seamless way to organize your photos, and gives photographers a truly viable alternative to Lightroom. I've seen a couple of short video previews, and it definitely looks promising!
The catalog module will be issued as a free update to Luminar 2018, so if you don't already use Luminar 2018, you'll want to take advantage of this special 4-day deal. This will give you the full version of Luminar at the best possible price, and it will lock you in to receive the free catalog update when it's finally released.
Scott Bourne, the President of Skylum Software,
has stated that as soon as the catalog module is released, Luminar's price will likely increase to reflect this major new feature. However, everyone who bought or owns the program before that date will receive the catalog module for free.
Even if you're not interested in the catalog module and you just want to use Luminar as standalone processor or a
plugin for Lightroom, this means you'll never get a better price on the program than you will with this current 4-Day deal. As someone who's used Lightroom for years, Luminar has now become my #1 photo editing program choice. I love how easy it is to use, and I love how it gives you lots of options, no matter if you're doing minor tweaks to straight Fuji JPEGs, or if you're processing RAW
files.
With all the tools, presets, smart filters it offers, plus, customizable workspaces and a gorgeous, intuitive and very easy-to-use interface, Luminar lets you edit photos the way YOU want to.
You can check out my full review of Luminar 2018 here, and during the next four days, you can get the special $49 price on Luminar here and ensure that you get the catalog module for free when it's released.
That said, if you're not interested in Luminar at all and you don't want to receive any more news or tips about using Luminar from me, click here to let me know. I won't send you any more dedicated Luminar-related messages. (The link will take you to a funny
article on my blog, and your preference will be noted.)
Thanks for reading, I hope you're having a great week!
