editing software
Hi all.
just got my first dslr and would like to keep everything well organised from the start.I have got an old adobe photoshop 3. but not sure if it would be best to just use software that came with new camera or save up for the latest Adobe?
Any thoughts would be appreciated
Kevin

scour the net for trial downloads. the cut price adobe elements has a lot of fans on here and isnt as pricey as P'shop CS3. others use paint shop pro. using software that comes with the camera will be better than P'shop 3 which is really out of date....

Photoshop Elements 6 is a good package, it is a cut down version of its big brother and offers extensive cataloguing capability.
Can recommend if you cant afford the arm and leg for big brother photoshop

the canon DPP software is fairly decent for raw editing, even better if u can get adobe lightroom
If you are a teacher, student or if you know someone is 
you can get up 80% of the adobe cs3 packages, well worth it, have a look here Adobe

This tends to work everywhere with the *Student Discount*
Though I only have PhotoShop Elements 4, it was purchased in New Zealand with a handsome discount, simply by producing My Student Card, even if the Photo didn't quite look like Me, the Retailer simply said that I had Aged ... considerably  Discount is the way to go!
Cheers, Tedz
