[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 305407, member: 9240"] One very important distinction between the two is that Photoshop Elements uses a "lite" version of ACR, while Lightroom gives you the full tool. Differences? PSE lacks the following modules present in the Lightroom Develop Module (i.e. ACR)... [LIST] [*]Tone Curve [*]HSL / Color / B&W [*]Split Toning [*]Lens Correction [*]Effects (i.e. vignetting) [*]Tools [LIST] [*]Spot Healing [*]Brush Adjustment [*]Gradient Adjustment [*]Radial Filter [/LIST] [/LIST] (Note that many of the missing pieces are available as layer adjustments in some form post-RAW edit) PSE is still more than enough by itself for most editing, but unless you find the need for layers I find that LR is the more complete tool on its own. Using the two together I could probably do 95% of my editing completely, with the Content Aware Fill being the biggest Photoshop feature not available in either. [/QUOTE]
