I've run into an issue.
Up until last year I had access to Photoshop CS at college. Since finishing the foundation degree I've not been able to afford full PS, so I've been using *shudder* Elements.
I like to do a lot of editing using Camera Raw plugin, but limited to one image at a time (through elements) this is laborious.
Recently I used a more modern dslr which my Elements6 won't handle, no Adobe update (forced to buy new version, or defer).
Two workflows:
Scan neg - edit - save - print
Digital raw pic - edit - save - print
I do minimal editing but I'm so used to PS interface. I can't afford PS, I dont want to struggle with Elements. I'm thinking get a CameraRaw style app for majority of editing, keep older Elements in case something comes up I can't do elsewhere.
I'm tempted to get Lightroom, so long as it copes with the newer raw files, allows me to batch process files - biggest issue when white balancing & correcting negs. I don't like the look of Aperture, seems a lot like iPhoto...
Do any of you use Lightroom/Aperture?
Are they worth using?
Do they all a silverfast plugin to scan?
