For instance, it was PE where I saw the real power of the clone stamping tool. Even PE 2, which I got bundled with my Canon EOS 10D SLR, had that little extra when compared with PSP 9. Nevertheless, Adobe’s Photoshop Elements has been able to inspire a certain level of confidence that PSP doesn’t. Until then, I hadn’t realised the details that I had been missing. That said, its assistance in setting the brightness and contrast of my monitor was most useful. It does feature screen calibration as well but I found that photos appeared very pale when using the calibrated workspace maybe I set it up wrong.
PSP XI has taken this further and has add-on tools like SnapFire for downloading photos from cameras. The PSP commitment continued through versions 7 and 9 though it is only in the later versions that photo processing began to be a significant part of the functionality. Paint Shop Pro 5, a popular tool of shareware origins replaced this, though I must admit that I did briefly encounter the ubiquitous Photoshop at this stage. My first exposure to image editing was with Corel’s PhotoPaint, a low profile application that did what I asked of it while guzzling as much of what little memory my PC had in those days (32 MB first, then 64 MB). This is no doubt down to companies realising that investing in the development of this class of software does yield a return and the development effort is progressing things very nicely indeed. Thanks to the digital photography revolution, image editing has become a lot more user friendly these days. Photoshop Elements 5 on trial 26th January 2007Īfter having a trial version of Corel’s Paint Shop Pro Photo XI on evaluation, I have now moved on to the latest version of Adobe’s Photoshop Elements.
