Best photo software?

[loane12]

Hi,

I would like your opinion please. I need to know what would be the best photo software to buy? I am hesitating between Adope Photoshop Element and Corel Paint Shop Pro X...

Thanks for your help!

well... it all depends

if you are looking for a raw editor (ignoring the possibility of apple's new aperture (which looks incredible btw)) it would probably be Phase One's C1 Pro

the the best editing software currently is adobe's Photoshop CS2


are you looking for the best, or are you looking to get something good for it's price?

Between the two, I'd have to say Photoshop Elements. Photoshop is the choice image editor, and Elements has many of the same tools you'll find in Photoshop (CS2) for a fraction of the cost. If you are new, I'd recommend that, and if you really learn it and want more...CS2 (or whatever version is out by then) will be a welcome upgrade.
