I've been engaged in an interesting dialogue (via WhatsApp) with a friend who's well experienced and qualified in photography. His approach is purely PS, and to a lesser degree, LR, his argument being that all that's needed for most things is curves, hue, saturation, masks, paths and, occasionally, LAB.
I'm both lazy and something of software junkie. If there's a tool that will save me time and effort, I'll use it. Currently I'm trialling both the latest DxO and the Nik Collection whilst trying to get the same results in PS without spending hours doing so.
So I was wondering
- how many people out there (here?) are pure PS users?
- are there things that DxO, Nik, etc. can definitely do that PS definitely can't do at all or can do but only with difficulty?
