| I already use Topaz Clarity, but Topaz Adjust looks quite interesting as well. Anyone having experience in using Adjust. I really like to know whether or not there is a lot in common between those two programs, or is Adjust a real asset to my PP? |

| I give a huge thumbs up to Topaz Adjust. In fact I couldnt' live without it. All my photos pass through it and it sure helps make them look a lot better. Please note I don't have any of the Nik software. |

I love both Nik and Topaz and use all of their products all of the time.
Mainly in photography these days ! |

I demoed the Adjust package for a while, just never felt it gave as refined an output as NIK.

Likewise. I have a lot of Topaz stuff, but I live in NIKland now, pretty much. I use Topaz Clarity and Topaz Simplify for finishing touches with some regularity, occasionally Topaz Clean, but seldom use Adjust anymore. |

| NIK doesn't play well with my computer. I tried the demo version and couldn't get it to work at all, called their support (which was wonderful by the way) and learned that my video card wasn't compatible. So... while I love the product, I depend on Topaz and I love adjust. I usually use it on a separate layer and tweak it before blending. Hope that helps. |

I like adjust, but I've changed over to using the the tonal contrast adjustment in Nik color Efex, as it gives me greater control. I can get my tonemapped look by adjusting midtones and shadow contrast, but avoid halos in the sky by keeping the highlight contrast down or even smooth it further by reducing it. Of course, I'm a cheapskate and only have it because the old version was a freebie with PaintShop pro.
I do continue to use a few of the other Topaz products.

And I'll add one more to this consensus. NIK is so helpful that I tend to forget I've got many of the Topaz products on board.
Although that new Topaz plug in IS quite nice.

| Thanks all for your advise. About NIK Software, I think you only can buy that software as one package? Or can jou buy the different parts as separate software programs, as is the case with Topaz? In that case I'll probably stick to Topaz, see what parts are useful. |
