Photo Software

What software are you all using to edit our photos

Basic editing in Lightroom 5. By basic, I mean exposure...contrast.. clarity..highlights/lowlights... I do about 90% in Lightroom. The other 10% when I want to remove objects... change background... add filters or change colors.. (basically anything more extensive) I use Photoshop CS6.

Depends on what the end use is. For day to day web stuff (images posted here, for example), FastStone. For graphics or my silver work, LightZone for basics, CS6 for advanced. The first two are free, the last most definitely not.

I'm also a Lightroom and Photoshop user. In addition I have Portrait Professional, Topaz Plugins and NIK Plugins, HDR Pro.

Lightroom, Portrait pro and Photomatix light

Lightroom for the majority of edits and pixelmator for Mac for advanced, the later is similar to photoshop but not the cost. Also have various plugins.

Depending on what I am doing Nikon ViewNX2, Nikon Capture NX2, Lightroom 5, Photoshop CC, and onOne Perfect Photo Suite 8

Elements 11 + Topaz

Lightroom,Lightzone and Zoner for most everything....if I have to,I have access to photoshop but after their new subscription crap started I refuse to use it...have the nikon software also but havnt opened it in months...

Just Aperture. If they need more editing then that, I feel that I failed to do the shot correctly.

Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CC 90% in lightroom I use photoshop when more extensive changes are needed.

Photoshop CS6, Photoshop CC, NIK Tools, and Portrait Pro.

LR 3.6 99.9%

Indeed.....................

ACDsee Pro7 does it for me.

I use apple aperture, and the NIK plugins. I've still got a long way to go before I am getting the most out of them.

Lightroom 4.4, Capture NX2, anything serious I use Corel Paintshop Photo Pro X3. For web, strictly Irfanview.

Same here, but a little bit of Snapseed, too. I have assorted freebies, too, and Helicon for auto-focus bracketing/stacking.

Might be useful to break down inmates by operating system. I'm Mac.

I'm so far out of the loop, I don't even know what Lightzone and Zoner are. Off to research them. Thanks for the tip.
