Adobe has announced the availability of Lightroom 2.6, Photoshop
Camera Raw 5.6 and DNG Converter 5.6.

Originally posted as release candidates for community testing on
Adobe Labs, these final versions include raw file support for 20 new
camera models, including the Canon EOS 7D and Nikon D3s. Additional
DNG support has been added for the Leica M9 and Ricoh GXR camera
models.

The updates also provide a fix for an issue affecting PowerPC
customers using the final Lightroom 2.5 and Camera Raw 5.5 updates on
the Mac. The issue, introduced in the demosaic change to address
sensors with unequal green response, has the potential to create
artifacts in the highlight area while using the Highlight Recovery
tool in raw files from Sony, Olympus, Panasonic and various medium
format digital camera backs.

Lightroom 2 software is a digital photography workflow solution,
allowing photographers to import, process, manage and showcase
images, and the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in provides access within
Photoshop to the raw image formats produced by many leading digital
cameras. Adobe’s Digital Negative (DNG) format is a publicly
available archival format for the raw files generated by digital
cameras.

Lightroom 2.6 is available as a free download for existing Lightroom
2 customers, and Photoshop Camera Raw 5.6 is available as a free
download for existing customers of Photoshop CS4, Photoshop Elements
8 (Mac and Windows) and Premiere Elements 8. DNG Converter 5.6 is
also available as a free download for all customers. Click here for
