You should be fine as long as you don't buy a new camera. My issue was a new camera and a new laptop. I had to get the converter program for the D500 and then convert each set before installing on LR 4.4. I couldn't update my old laptop, as Adobe doesn't service Windows 7 or Windows Vista, which is on my old laptop that I take on dive locations. I replaced the laptop with the latest/greatest with all the bells and whistles and then found out that 4.4 had no adjustment for font size and I had to up the font to 250% to read it. This also expanded the font on everything else. I downloaded 5.7, which worked on my new laptop, but they want the full current price for it and they don't update anymore if something changes. I ended up with the 19.95 package that includes a terrabyte of cloud space and both LR programs (classic and cc, plus PS cc.)
