[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 747578, member: 48483"] I personally am big on open-source software. Since I don't make a living from my photos, I cannot justify the cost of using any Adobe products. I bought Luminar4 earlier this year because the price is not out of this world and I wanted to try working with the unique features it offers. Adobe is playing catch-up in the AI features right now. I cannot say Luminar is something I can use full-time. Maybe the new-release Luminar AI will be a different story. But I find RawTherapee for the main processing workflow and GIMP as the finishing touches (not always needed either) to be the combination that works for me. I only had to add the Nikon ViewNX suite for the organization and importation features, and I previously used Google Picasa for that until about 5 years ago. But I keep trying out stuff in Luminar and I expect to use it more and more for projects in the future. [/QUOTE]
