The latest incarnation of Photoshop Elements arrives almost exactly one year after the release of version 7. Some of the most significant changes are in the Organiser module, which is also the biggest disappointment. (See below) Owners of 7 will proba...

The Edit module is excellent, striking the right balance between automation and full user control. There is an overview of features at tinyurl.com/yhe2uqq with comparison charts for versions 7 and 6. Adobe Camera RAW can be set as the RAW conversion fr...
We spent a day trying to make face recognition work. This is one of the vaunted new features and we could not get it to function. There is no instruction book and as Elements is a complex program it will be necessary to buy a third party manual. The de...
Photoshop Elements is the economical and viable alternative to the very expensive full Photoshop program. It’s a shame that Adobe spends so much money on creating a bewilderingly beautiful interface and not a cent on documentation. The on-line help...

Adobe markets their Elements software as stripped down versions of their professional-grade applications, which has its pros and cons. Is the best of Photoshop proper, or just a crippled imitation of the real deal? We break it down in this review...

At the end of all this I'm forced to contend with the reality that apart from the shiny new Organizer, Photoshop Elements 8 is largely a rehash of Photoshop Elements 7 with very little in the way of changes made to the editing software proper. The Organizer itself isn't even wholly different than what came before, just the level of integration, which I personally don't care for. When I was discu...

Powerful, well-balanced consumer-level photo editing and organizing tools. Photo recomposition feature as amazing as its CS4 counterpart. Tight integration with online services and Premiere Elements 8. Extensive selection of help and tutorials.
