Being a photographer, the introduction of a new Adobe product usually gets my attention. The announcement today of Photoshop Elements 6 was no exception. Even though I am a current user of Photoshop CS2, soon to be CS3, I have worked with Elements 4 and 5 in the past. With each of these previous versions I have been impressed with the capabilities and with what it has enabled me to do. I am currently looking at installing the Elements 6 on my laptop as it is simply not powerful enough to handle the full Photoshop CS versions of the product.
One thing that I have been very happy with in the previous versions of Elements is its ability to handle and process RAW files. I currently own Canon 20D and 40D SLR bodies and shoot exclusively in RAW. Shooting this way provides me with much more flexibility regarding photo processing and editing. In my opinion, if your digital camera has the ability to shoot in RAW format then you should be doing so. By not doing so I believe that you may not be getting the ultimate photo quality by doing otherwise. The newest RAW file version formats are available in Photoshop Elements 6.
I will be providing a review of this product in the next week or two.
Stay tuned.
