[QUOTE="Nathan Lanni, post: 229854, member: 14629"] Just to add to Don's comments. I have no real experience with Photoshop or Lightroom. I bought my dlsr in June of 2013 and acquired Lightroom 5 a little over a month ago, and had an old copy of Photoshop that I was going to try and get by with. I also installed the trial version of CC Photoshop for comparison purposes. Browsing for techniques (bracketing for instance), watching Youtube and Adobe's free tutorials, it was interesting to see how far apart the older Photoshop and the new versions are. The user interfaces of the older Photoshop vs Lightroom 5 are different. Maybe it wouldn't phase a Photoshop "old hat" but from a learner's perspective and gaining maximum capability it made a difference to me. It came down to $120 a year and decided not to fight it. I had just canceled my Netflix DVD subscription so I applied that money to this valuable tool. App updates are automatic. FWIW BTW - The Adobe phone sales guy said the deal ended on the 8th, but the offer is still up on the Adobe site, and it let me buy in yesterday. [/QUOTE]
