[QUOTE="darlenec59, post: 53803, member: 1179"] Short and sweet, I currently have Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 (paid @$100). I am looking to upgrade (do I need to?) but can't afford a $400-$600 (or more) professional program. $200 is about my limit. Is there something out there that would be more user friendly than Elements 8.0. Or is Elements good for a hobbyist and I just need to learn to use it better? Okay, forget the "short" part of this post (LOL!)....I must add that I stopped shooting in Raw because I found I could get the same results shooting JPEG and Raw was adding so much time to my post processing that I wasn't getting my photos processed in a decent amount of time. I take a LOT of pics every weekend and it was overwhelming to sit down with hundreds of pictures and starting in RAW! I saw Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 on Amazon for $149.00. Any opinions on this? Is this any better than Elements 8? As for my interests, I take a lot of landscape stuff, like to photograph pets, people (posed and candid), so pretty general. Thanks for all your opinions and info!
