It is a big pain when the "industry standard" ups and changes the standards ... I'm still happy enough with PS 5.x and have yet to come across a compelling enough reason to change ... |
My main reasons for upgrading are:
1.) 16-bit support
2.) RAW support (now includes the Camera RAW plugin)
3.) Greatly improved browser (it actually IS greatly improved!)

I'm going to push my luck and see if I can't get my parents to buy me the Photoshop CS Premium package on Adobe via their educator's discount as a Christmas present.
Seems to be a nice bunch of programs packaged that are approx. $1300 at the regular price but only something like $400 for students/educators - assuming I read it right.
Gonna check it out further.

Think I'm gonna try to get that deal too, seeing as I'm still a student.

The new Photoshop CS has a lot of things that PhotoElements 2 had. The photomerge being one of them. However, I was not crazy about photomerge in Elements and I hope it is better in CS.
I'm waiting for my copy now. |

1.) Haven't used it (yet). My scanner at work does support 16-bit, but nobody's asked me to do any scans that way.
2.) My camera doesn't support the RAW format. I also think it's a stupid name since Photoshop HAS supported a "format" called Raw since at least version 2.0 -- try opening a big ol' Excel spreadsheet with that sometime ...
3.) All those &$(^ image browsers and other "conveniences" usually leave me more confused than before. Although the one I got with the Fuji camera does print up a nice contact/proof sheet from a folder, so I can "browse" through a notebook of images somewheres far from my monitor.
Still, overall, I think I'm more lazy than Luddite ....

There are some somewhat afforable cams that will do long exposures, up to 15s. Canon and Samsung make some average priced ones to do it |

so who wants to share their version of CS?.. so I can stop using 5.5, and I can stop using this Canon program to convert RAW images (It's not a very smart program) |
