Its what I do

RAW is a vastly superior format and everyone should be using it. Get Adobe Lightroom and its easy to process your photos. It makes no distinction between RAW and JPG. With RAW you can rescue dark shadows, blown highlights, and fix white balance issues.

Hi petemc. Mind if I ask some related questions. Got a 400D and haven't really looked at any of the pics yet as I don't have any decent software to sort them out. Should I get:

1: Adobe Photoshop
2: Adobe Lightroom
3: Both?

I'm a student so I could get the student versions of Photoshop and Lightroom. I *think* that Lightroom would suit me better at the moment as I'm not anywhere near good enough to start shopping my pics.

I've been using Photoshop for about 8 years now. Its a brilliant program. One, if not the most amazing pieces of software I've seen. However, since Lightroom came out I've found I can do a large portion of my work and produce images I'm happy with in that. Its a great program. Photoshop is quite complex to use, Lightroom isn't really. So I'd say, for now get Lightroom. You could also look at Photoshop Elements. A basic version of PS.

Yeah I think Lightroom is what I need now. Just to do some touching up and organising of my photos. Then as I get better at taking pics and get some better kit I can get Photoshop in due time.

Can get Lightroom for £81.08 from Adobe UK education store. I think the whole process of proving I am a student is a bit of a bitch unless they've simplified the process since I last looked.

Has any one used Paint Shop Pro ?

petemc · 08-11-2007, 01:55

Not in a looooooong time. Maybe PSP5.
