When is Lightroom CC 4.2 will be released with Sony Alpha 1 Raw support?

[Satish98A7]

The lightroom Camera support page says March 2021 version 4.2 has Sony Alpha support but my CC account says 4.1 version and is up-to-date. What am i missing?

Lightroom 4.2 hasn't been released yet, but is expected shortly.

If you need to edit Alpha 1 images right now and can't wait for the release of 4.2, your best bet is to use Adobe's dng converter (https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/adobe-dng-converter.html ), which has been updated to support Alpha 1 images to convert your raw files to dng raw files and those will work fully in Lightroom 4.1. They're also only half the size of the arw files while retaining 100% of the quality because dng files use much more efficient lossless compression than Sony does in their cameras.
