Description
On the 29th September 2026, Adobe released updates for Lightroom and Lightroom Classic and said Reflection Removal had been improved, but is it any better? In some cases yes, and in some cases no, but in this video I also show something new that's been added to Lightroom that could make a pretty useful workaround.
