I am very satisfied with the software. For many years I edit my pictures (RAW) in combination Lightroom, NIK software and Elements. The latter software I use only the editor for things that are not feasible in the other programs (z. Ex. Levels for Mondays) .Dabei bothers me only element that it works only with 8-bit color depth (up to several filters ) .Diesen downside I from same, as I am changes Image as long as possible in the LR4 and other programs with 16 BIT vornehme.Den sometimes very important "rest" I'll do the best quality in element. The much more expensive large Photoshop I've never been really vermisst.Wer dominated all its variants, and who needs it? Elements 11 does not fully more than its two predecessors, but I appreciate the increased speed, new features such as tilt ... and also the new surface that will allow me more than ever focusing on the individual selected tool. Every man for himself must decide which option is the better for its operation, only is much in the reviews have said simply unjust The organizer, I've never used, because LR is simply better. But many Photoshop CS-owners do not use for this reason also the Bridge.Der taste of people is just-fortunately-very unterschiedlich.Aber why I find the wife or girlfriend of the other no worse than mine, just because you personally do not like it .Who PSE previously had not, should acquire the 11er version with a clear conscience, he will not do anything wrong. Whoever has doubts about an improvement, should the tools vergleichen.Z in their effectiveness to previous versions once. Bsp.den Spot Healing Pinsel.Auch the RAW processing is with its new controls on Lightroom Niveau.Ausgezeichnet works improved Auswahltechnik.So are even hair indemnify and easy new feature is that through dialogue-edge enhance-the main subject immediately .The isolated with a layer mask helps immensely when feeding a new background, z.Bsp. a new Himmels.Wer here it speaks, there is no improvement to the previous versions, the program should even try out regardless of the modified surface. Is a real shame that this Adobe to little guidance gibt.Es worth a look at the Voreinstellungen.Dazu and other details are a test in Colorfoto12 / 12 some evidence.
