- New Book Module – Create a book (with text) withing Lightroom 4 and upload the finished product to Blurb.
- Improved Develop Module process
- Folders panel improvements – now you can move as many folders at a time as you want. (In Lightroom 3, you could only move one folder at at time.)

- Soft-proofing improvements
- Email from directly within Lightroom – finally, export to email actually opens your default email program and attaches the selected images.
