Luminar Neo RAW processing is based on our own powerful RAW engine. You can check the full list of supported cameras here.  Also, we regularly update our library and make our own improvements to provide excellent support for new cameras. 

Luminar Neo is a universal solution that can function both as a standalone editor and a plug-in. 

Luminar Neo can be used as a plug-in or extension for:

• Lightroom Classic (starting from version 6);
• Photos for macOS.

All Pro tools that work with a single image (such as Noiseless AI) will be accessible when you use Luminar Neo as a plugin.

Also, you can use the HDR Merge, Focus Stacking, and Upscale AI from the Lightroom plugin. Achieve even more impressive results with any editing workflow.

Moreover, please keep in mind that if you invoke Luminar Neo from Photoshop or select the “Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments” option in Lightroom Classic, you’ll get a TIFF file in the Luminar plugin. 

Therefore, if you need to work with the RAW file in Luminar, you need to upload it in standalone mode. 

Alternatively, using Lightroom Classic, you can choose ‘Export Original’ after right-clicking the photo > Export > Luminar Neo > Open Source Files.

This version will have even more editing power under the hood. Channeling your inspiration into mind-blowing photos has never been easier with all-new cutting-edge AI-powered tools that will add up to the already existing go-to collection of Luminar AI. Intelligent tools such as Accent^AI, Sky^AI (replaces the sky automatically and adds water reflections), Skin^AI, Sky Enhancer^AI, Structure^AI (adjusts detail and clarity), Body^AI, Atmosphere^AI(adds weather effects based on image depth reconstruction), Portrait Bokeh^AI, and Supercontrast, as well as the upcoming virtual light source emulation, automated removal of power lines and dust spots, and many more, are industry-leading and are designed to provide satisfying results effortlessly. You’ll always retain complete control over your photos thanks to the convenient interface.
