I cannot help you with instagram, but there is a hughe improvement from vers. 3 to version 5 of LR. If you shoot RAW, of course.

 

ps:

 

check if you didn't select accidently the 1:1 format on the camera

LR5 is more likely to include corrections and updates for your camera. Earlier versions would not know about the D-Lux 5. Also, the programme has matured and has more controls to improve your pictures. (Look at Adobe training videos and see the various features explained.

I know its a bit late after your posting, but

If I understand your question correctly, you originally had an oblong image in the camera, but when loading into instagram the image had been cropped into a square format thereby losing part of the image.

 

I am not an instagram expert, but every instagram image I have seen is square.

 

Therefore, if you want to upload into instagram only, set your image format to 1:1 on the lens dial nearest to the body. This dial has a range of image shapes upon it.

 

Hope this helps

Regards

Mike
