I will likely go with Capture One Pro when release 11 comes out. I went from LR3 to LR6 so no experience with LR5. It should run on most any Win machine though... although perhaps not XP. You can do basic editing with RAW Therapee and all of the other free stuff that's out there. If you are serious about post processing you may find free software to be lacking. | |

I installed the stand alone version of Lightroom 6 only to discover it completely froze my system. Had to uninstal it and ask for a refund! I know there's no support for version 5, but it seems to work, so I've had a look at the free software and will download that and trial it soon. | |

If you plan to continue using LR you would need to go to the subscription model. Since you are still on LR5 I'm assuming that you are not overly committed to LR and may not care to pay a monthly fee to keep using it. You can, of course, use the free Adobe RAW converter and thus extend the usability of your copy of LR5 more or less indefinitely. You might also consider moving to something like Raw Therapee which is free, fully supported and runs on most platforms. | |
