    I Love this program. I gave it 4 stars because I wish there were a few more options to choose from within the program. You can buy add-ons but I don't feel they are worth the cost. I'm thinking of upgrading to Luminar AI it might have more options. For the price I paid I think it was a great buy. I mainly use it to change the sky if my picture is a bright blue sky with no clouds. Having fun playing with my pictures

    Great software to enhance photos. I gave 4 stars because it’s a bit difficult to understand the folder structure and watermarking feature. I contacted the company and was guided on how to watermark using pgn file format. The help section of the software is easy to follow and very informative. All of the enhancement features are phenomenal!

    This program is ok. Makes for an easy edit but doesn’t replace the Lightroom/photoshop duo. Don’t honestly use it at all anymore. Not worth the process of sending it over and exporting it out.

    Best Buy Surprised Me By Selling Luminar 4

    I didn't expect to see Skylum- Luminar 4 for sale on the Best Buy website. It was even more surprising to find it advertised in Deal for the Day for 2 devices. I have tried Skylum software before and have found them useful for my photography needs. I previously bought their products on the Skylum website so I was pleasantly surprised to see Best Buy selling it in Deal of the Day at the right price that I couldn't pass it up. Thanks Best Buy for the deal!

    I purchase as an option to Lightroom it is a membership program not a stand alone. I am disappointed with the quality/defective software. I not as describe on Best Buy Deal of the Day web page. The superb photo manager fails to display photos. Enhance preset are offer by membership only. I followed the download instructions and got an error message. However, it came through as "trial mode". The software is slow and lags in all process. Most operations slow

    Filters and ease of use is great. It's just not stable and crashes frequently. Best feature is ease of use. Maybe worth getting if it's 5 bucks.

    I bought this as a plug in to Elements 2021. It works well with Elements 2021. It also offers a few oddities that Elements doesn't have so for the price I paid I am pleased.

    I have a problem. I followed the download instructions and got an error message, but the skylum luminar came through. However it came through as "trial mode" I tried to use the CHAT, but got cut off saying I had waited too long and tried to call our local store, but waited 20 minutes and could never get through. There is still 3 days left on the trial. Shouls I uninstall and try again?

    Do NOT Buy Luminar 4 — officially discontinued

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I own this product. It has been officially discontinued by Skylum. There will not be a Luminar 5. They’ve switched to Luminar AI, leaving this an orphan product. No way to transfer catalogs into Luminar AI. Truly a dead-end. Awful that Skylum did this to their customers. Cannot recommend. Oh, and it’s VERY slow, even on a high end PC.
