This article is for current users of Lytro Desktop 3.

• IMPORTANT: Before upgrading from Lytro Desktop 3 to Desktop 4, 
  make backups of your Lytro Library files.
  
  
• Updating a Library from Desktop 3 to Desktop 4 is PERMANENT.
  A library which you've created or opened with Desktop 4 can not be opened by Desktop 3.
  
  
• Lytro Desktop 4 requires more powerful graphics hardware than Desktop 3, and may not work well on all systems, especially laptops.
  See Desktop 4 - System Requirements
  
  
• Lytro Desktop 3 is now unsupported.

What's New in Desktop 4

• Support for LYTRO ILLUM cameras
• Adjustments
• Animations
• You will need to reprocess your existing pictures to enable Adjust and Animate.
• Workflows to get you into and out of third- party editing tools (like Photoshop)
• Manual Sort - You can now manually sort pictures within albums

What happened to…?

• Processing for Perspective Shift - The Perspective Shift feature and icon are gone, because perspective shift is now enabled in the initial processing of all new pictures. 
• Depth Scores are gone - We didn't think they were very accurate or useful; let us know if you disagree!
• Living Filters - We decided that completing Animations, Adjustments, and a host of other features were more important.  We plan to reintroduce Filters in a future Desktop update but don't have a release date.  Let us know if you really want it back!

Reprocessing Notes

When you reprocess a Desktop 3 Living Picture in Desktop 4:

• Perspective Shift is always enabled, even when you refocus.
• The Adjust and Animate tools are enabled.
• Living Filters are removed.

New Living Picture Player

Desktop 4 uses our new OpenGL Player to view your pictures.  This new player enables exciting new features:

• More creative control when sharing pictures online, especially when your audience uses our WebGL-based Advanced Player
• Virtual Camera adjustments allow real-time post-capture aperture and lens tilt adjustment
