Akira - thank you so much for posting the comparison shots.
I do think its very worth while - I have been contemplating going over to CC for the past 2 years - and here I am still sitting on PS6.
I am sure there are features I will enjoy - eg the de-haze and ACR as a filter -

Elsa, I'm not advocate of any company, but CC2015 (to me, the photographer option) turned out to be very reasonable.  I also like the fact that the pre-existing functions keep being improved (like Photomerge, for example) whenever updates are ready.  Now that ACR has stopped supporting CS6, the move would be worthwhile.

I had an update to ACR earlier today - I think it was for newer models - but I was under the impression they weren't even going to do that for CS6.

Be it as it may - I believe you are right.

If the ACR is 9.1.1, then this is the last version that supports CS6, unfortunately.

This is on the face of it a good thing. I guess like with any other type of new release, this can trigger the task of going back to older images and re-running RAW conversion & other PP.

When the updates may be happening more frequently (i.e. Adobe don't have to save them up for a release once or twice a year) does anyone feel this makes this reprocessing opportunity easier to miss?

Ok, yes this is a 'first world problem'

Well, I would not be too demanding.  But so long as Adobe keeps the current price/service balance, I wouldn't complain.
