PhotoShop Elements, Aperture and Lightroom
In article
, wrote: My biggest question has to do with what editing capabilities Aperture and Lightroom have. It sounds like they're mostly for organizing photos and doing batch edits (white balance, etc.). I don't use most of what's in PSE, but sometimes use the healing brush and cloning tool to remove distractions. And, of course, moving to using RAW will add another dimension of needed tools which I haven't yet figured out. aperture and lightroom have a subset of photoshop's adjustments, but it's the stuff people commonly use. for the occasional extra, you can round trip the image to photoshop and aperture/lightroom will track it. raw processing is as straightforward or as involved as you want to make it. in fact, working with jpegs in aperture/lightroom is no different than raw, just that the results aren't quite as good. I realize this question is a bit vague, but figure there will be some kind souls on this newsgroup who will try to provide information. Where do these various programs fit in the work flow? What are their advantages and disadvantages? Thanks in advance. both aperture and lightroom have free 30 day trials, so you can try both and see how well they work for you. there's a bit of a learning curve with either one, so try to find an online tutorial or perhaps a book, or ask questions here. what i've found is that working with lots of images is *far* easier with aperture/lightroom. |
