Adobe has announced an update to Lightroom from version 5.0 to 5.2. (There was no 5.1 version.) This update is free to anyone who owns a copy of version 5.0. If you are just purchasing Lightroom, this is the version you will get when you download the software.
There appear to be a number of important bug fixes as well as the usual additional support for new cameras. Adobe has also included a few improvements to existing features, notably the Spot Removal tool. It now has a feather slider to improve blending when using the Clone option as well as better choices for the source selection.
