What photo software does everyone use???

[salt newbie01]

I have tried using psp to work on photo's but I don't really like it. Maybe I just need to practice a little more. I have seen people talk about PS does that mean paint shop or photo shop by adobe?

PS is Adobe's Photoshop. I use it and find it one of the best software products I've ever used.

 

[salt newbie01]

I looked at it on the internet and saw it was $650 . For that kinda money it had better be the best!! Is there a cheaper source to get it from or is that the going rate for the full version??

 

[EricBrian]

The only way you can get it cheaper is if you are a student.

i run photoshop CS2 - but my work buys it for me. it is mad expensive.

you can check out Photoshop Elements 4.0 ... you can usually pick it up for around $50-$80

been using gimp for years

www.gimp.org

very pleased, and best of all the software is GPL (so it is free, as in freedom, and free as in beer)

I use Paint Shop Pro 8, but i don't use it all that much lol I know how to get it cheaper........................:rollface:

I use Capture 1 Pro for processing RAW files, and I use Photoshop CS2 for processing the TIFFs.

Photoshop is the best. It's the bread and butter editing program for photographers worldwide. You won't find another program that surpasses it.

I use microsoft digital image pro 10, I've never used another so I cant compare, but it seems to suit my needs. I think it was around a hundred bucks.

Photoshop CS2

A variety of Photoshops here. Mainstay is 5.5, though for my new Nikon D70S, there are plugins for RAW images (well, Nikons version of RAW), and I end up using CS instead.

Photoshop CS2
Apple Aperture
Pase1 Capture One
(PowerMac G5)

 

[CodeToad]

I use CS2 and included Camera Raw for raw editing. I'm thinking about trying out some new software for printing, possibly Qimage.

I use Aperture for cataloging and minor tweaking and Photoshop CS2 for anything more in depth.
