Adobe announces Lightroom connections from Frame.io

In a blog published this morning, Adobe has said that it's now possible to make direct connections between Frame.io and Lightroom.
Frame.io, the cloud-based collaboration and workflow platform that Adobe bought in late 2021, was primarily designed for video projects and has gained widespread adoption in that field. But Adobe has made clear that it wants to make it more useful for photographers, too.
Collaborations with Fujifilm and Panasonic have seen the arrival of cameras that can upload directly to Frame.io whenever the camera has an internet connection. The latest announcement is designed to speed up the process of getting images from the camera into Lightroom.

The connection will allow you to import every image you shoot into Lightroom, as soon as it uploads to Frame.io, or let you make a selection of which ones you want to transfer from Frame.io for final editing.
In the accompanying video, Adobe talks about shooting images at a music festival as part of a social media team, and making the images available to a remote editor. But we suspect plenty of Fujifilm and Panasonic users will simply appreciate a mechanism for getting their images into Lightroom even if they're a hobbyist who's traveling, for instance.
'Connect to Lightroom' is available as a beta feature in Frame.io from today.
