Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1 Release Candidate is now available as a public download from the Adobe Labs.

Because it’s a “Release Candidate” it means that it has been tested and it is almost ready for “production”.  It is being release as a Release Candidate so that the users could test it and provide feedback before it ships.

Here’s what’s new in Lightroom 4.1:

New camera support:

• Canon EOS 5D Mark III

Fixed Issues:

• Lightroom 4 did not properly open external applications when using the “Edit In” functionality.
• Point Curve adjustments made in Lightroom 3 have been restored.
• Addressed performance issues in Lightroom 4, particularly when loading GPS track logs, using a secondary monitor, and the controls within the Develop module.
• Ability to update DNG previews and metadata for more than 100 photos has been restored.
• This update allows for improved viewing of subfolders and stacks in folders with a large number of photos.
• It was possible that a layout of a saved book could be lost after quitting Lightroom 4

Lightroom 4.1 Release Candidate can now be downloaded from Adobe Labs website. Here’s a link:
