Either way, version 3.1.1 has made significant improvements. In some situations, you can zoom and view the images while other situations you will have to wait until Luminar 3 finishes processing the image. At this point, things are looking very promising.īelow I use the word Rendering in Luminar speak it is called "processing", meaning Luminar 3 is making updates to the image. Now with more confidence, I proceeded to add a 2017 folder having nearly 10,000 images which Luminar 3 chugged through in only 5 minutes. Luminar began loading the images into the library and at 95% I thought Luminar had hung up but finally moved on and finished at around 3 minutes and this too was a big improvement over the initial release.

I relaunched the software with the new library and load times were just shy of one minute.Īdding Image Folders to The Library: I pointed Luminar to a recent 2019 folder living on my NAS having around 500 Z7 & Z6 RAW images with file sizes between 30mb to 61mb each. The build-out of the library took about 3 minutes another big performance improvement over the initial version. I then loaded about 900 images - all JPEGs with an average size of 15mb each. I chose to store my library locally on the PC. Keep it up Team Skylum!īuilding the initial Library: This is a 9 step guided process in which you basically decide where to store your library and add any image folders that you want Luminar to index. Luminar 4 has made enough improvements to warrant your attention.
#Luminar 3 reviews update
Team Skylum's latest update has made Luminar 3 well worth the purchase price. I recommend you try the latest version of Luminar 4 for your Digital Asset Management Solution including a very Slick Image Editor with easy to apply and adjust looks for your images. With Luminar latest update 3.1.1, I can now recommend with confidence Luminar 3 for your editing and asset management needs. My initial review of Luminar 3 was not too favorable that went as far as a Not Recommended due to poor performance due to load times of 15+ minutes, and a few other issues. I hope Skylum reads this comments and maybe takes some things to the heart and puts them into practise, if so we maybe will meet again in the future.In late December 2018, Skylum released the newest offering of Luminar, Luminar 3 which includes the highly anticipated asset management library to facilitate users' ability to have immediate access to their images via libraries or user-created albums. I really hoped to get away from adobe, but neither Affinity nor Skylum has managed to fully replace Photoshop/Lightroom. It works, but slowly, good features cost extra, some ads are hugely misleading and to be honest most of us are probably better of with paying adobe the 10 buck per months for the photographer package do get access to photoshop+lightroom. has been so far quite the disappointment.
During the beta i actually had a lot of hope, but this software. Its ridiculous if you have 100 images and you apply lets say one filter to all of them, your Computer will become unuseable for at least 30 minutes (or so) because cpu usage will go to 100%. And consider that all of the major AI Libaries (tensorflow, pytorch.) are allowing dev's quite easily to use Cuda Cores and its also worth noting that Photo- and Videoediting Software since many many years do use your gpu. The Software works on a i7 Gen.10 fairly slow, and that i have a RTX 30xx doesnt even matter because it doesnt compute at all on the gpu (there is literally one filter which does use the gpu, wow). For me it feels a bit like i have been duped. Which is fine but then they released almost all of the advertised ai tools as paid extensions for a monthly fee or a one-time-payment but the later would not receive any updates. I bought Luminar Neo before it was released because many of the advertised features where something i was looking for, when the program was released in a beta state many of the features where not there yet. Misleading Ads and immature software (still no cuda support in 2023.
