I've just started experimenting with it. So far I've just played a bit with the initial "Library" interface (I've only imported one photo collection so far), and am concentrating on playing with the "Develop" section. This gives me rather more control over the RAW conversion than was available in Photoshop Elements, and of course it detected that I had Elements installed, so defaults to that as the external image editor (but will let me use another editor, too). I haven't tried that yet, though, so I don't know how seamless that will appear to be. So far I like it - it's fast, fast, fast compared to Elements, and Adobe suggest it will get faster as later Beta updates appear. I expect I'll be buying the retail version once it is released; I've heard that the price will be above elements, but (considerably) below Photoshop CS - I'm expecting a street price of $160 - $180. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
