We seem to have been waiting for Skylum's Luminar 4 for a long time - but the wait for this innovative photo editing software is nearly over. The software actually goes on sale on 16 November - but as many of its key features have been released by the developers over the last few months, it already feels like a program that we know lots about.

Luminar 4 is now available for pre-order for $79 - but as part of the launch promotion is being bundled with a free SmugMug portfolio website for a year, which alone is worth $180.
