Photoshop Elements vs CS5

[Dolby]

What am I missing by using PSE9?

I've always thought the ful CS5 is more graphics orientated (for graphic designers and the like ...) - while Elements is more for photo editing?

Unless you have a pirate copy of CS5, you'll be missing R10k

Biggest difference for me would be curves (not sure if PSE now has curves).

I thought the difference was even greater than R10k!

I've never seen or used (or cared) about curves - but Google says it has colour curves. I'll check them out tonight

EDIT: Oh ... it may not ...

It does. Enhance --> Adjust Colour --> Adjust Colour Curves

You can get Photoshop CS5 for $450.

Chances are also pretty good that they won't ship software to SA

Hey I'm not forcing anyone to buy online. If you want to continue to live in a box behind the boerewors curtain that's fine with me.

Me? I would buy the digital keys and download the trial software and get on with it. I certainly don't need the shiny box to sit on my desk.

I'm really stumped by your response...

btw, your link is now showing a Garmin Nuvi 1300

Chill, I was just winding you up

I think that Newegg site has specials every day and I saw the Photoshop one there yesterday. On Black Friday either B&H or Adorama were selling Lightroom for $49.

Hectic prices and I think worth waiting for if you can of course.

I'm sorry if I offended you.
