I was wondering, right now I have PS 7.0, am I missing anything by not having CS? Are the features better, or would you say they both do the same job, neither doing more than the other. I didn't even know there was a new PS out, is it worth the upgrade or should I just stick with what I have?

A few good things in CS. I like the shadow/highlite adjustment. It is very good for lightening up your darkest shadows. The file browser is improved and easier to work with. The best thing about CS is that it will handle RAW formats from just about any camera. Also can do more 16 bit work than before. Is it worth the upgrade...a definite maybe.

I do not really think CS is worth getting if you already have 7.0. Like Cloudsme said, there's a few good upgrades, but on the whole, I feel that it's not enough of an improvement to merit the upgrade.

I have not felt shorted by not upgrading. 7.0 does all I have ever asked it to do. I have a plugin called ShadowFixer that works very well for that task.

This may be a very silly question, but it's been bothering me for a while and no-one who I've asked has been able to answer it.
What does the CS stand for?
I know I'll kick myself when I hear it.
Thanks.

Nope, no kicking myself here.
I don't think I would have guessed at that.
Thanks.

The best part about PS 8, and it is an important part to me, is the ability to ajust your images in the raw format as if they were still in the camera. White balance, exposure, and vignetting can all be tweeked before your image is converted. Plus you can work effectivly in 16bit.

If you are currently using your camera in the jpg mode I would stick with what you have.

agreed. you may want to check adobe's site for raw filter updates. the v4, although beta, works nice.
