Yesterday I bought Elements 8 (Adobe Photoshop Elements 8), installed it, and I'm very happy about it.
I was using Elements 7 for some retouching, on a Microsoft computer, but my husband wanted to switch to Mac, so...here we are now, using I Mac, and I needed some compatible software. And as I don't cope very well with change, I wanted something I was already familiar with, so I think Elements 8 was the best choice for me. I'm not so advanced as to need all the features in Photoshop CS, so Elements is more than enough for me, at least for the time being.
I want to use it for organizing my photos as well. Until now I relied on a Casio software for importing and organizing, but I just want to use the same software for both retouching and organizing. So here I am, about to import my first bunch of photos, taken today, through the "new" software :) Wish me luck :))
And I occupied my free time with reviewing some camera manual instructions too, as I realized I simply forgot some important features and how to set useful functions (like one touch white balance, the depth of filed preview setting), and how to use my new remote control ! I just hope I will really USE them!
I'll be back tomorrow if today's photos prove good enough for the next exercise.
