It’s not available on Adobe’s store, nor on any Amazon store that I searched. Unfortunately, it’s bad news: you can no longer upgrade from a previous version to LR6, or purchase LR6 outright.

However, if you don’t need anything more than Lightroom 6, the last version they sold without a subscriptions, then you’re probably trying to find out how to buy it, or upgrade from a previous version. Photography is my livelihood and I’m happy to pay the low subscription fee until such time as it’s not my living any more.Īlthough I actually recommend Photo Mechanic for culling). If you’re not that bothered about LR in particular, or you’re not a professional, there are plenty of alternatives to consider such as Capture One, but personally I’m fine with Lightroom and it does everything I need. There was a time that I objected to paying for a subscription, but my views have changed and I’m very happy with my Photography Plan that includes Lightroom Classic CC and Photoshop CC and 20GB of cloud storage (which I never use) for just over £100 a year, less than £10 a month. If you need Lightroom professionally, as I do, at this time I strongly recommend just biting the bullet and subscribing to Creative Cloud. That makes the original version of this article completely redundant unfortunately, and I’ve removed the links to Amazon, which used to be the last place you could get hold of it. I’ve looked around the usual places online and I’m afraid I can’t find anywhere that sells official copies of Adobe Lightroom 6, the last version of Lightroom that was available as a non-subscription standalone product.
