Bug Fixes:

Fix crash on launch in some cases on Hi DPI (Retina) systems.
Fix crash when opening some Sigma SD9 raw files.
Fix issue with JPEG images saved by Camera Raw not readable in some external applications.
Fix automatic lens profile selection for Leica M (Typ 240) when using most recent firmware version.
Fix issue with some Hasselblad H5D-50c and H5D-60 3FR raw images appearing slightly too dark. Unfortunately, this fix may affect the appearance of existing images captured with this combination of settings. It is recommended that you (1) purge the Camera Raw cache via the Camera Raw Preferences dialog, and (2) review previously captured images for unexpected brightness changes.

The Camera Raw 8.6 release candidate is free a free download, with versions for both Photoshop CC and Photoshop CS6 available now.
