Adobe Photoshop CS5

Written by Sune Dadda Karma Harms in Reviews , Software

Here at MyDigitalPhotos.dk we have previously reported Adobe Photoshop Express for iPad , Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and now is the turn for Adobe Photoshop CS5. We liked the free app Photoshop Express, we were excited about Photoshop Elements 10, read in here and find out what we think of Adobe Photoshop CS5.

Adobe Photoshop CS5 is one of the most image editing programs available on the market and used by both professional photographers, graphic designers, media designers and others There are magazines whose exclusive articles on Adobe Photoshop CS5, the Internet is loaded with both free pay packages for Adobe Photoshop, you can buy several books on Adobe Photoshop CS5, even Apple's app store is filled with applications that will help you to better understand Adobe Photoshop CS5. Yes, Adobe Photoshop CS5 is an almost inconceivably large application that contains so many possibilities, that only those who work and deal daily with the program the ability to assess the combination of program effects and tools. It is not without reason that the name of Photoshop, in line with the "google" has got his own place in the language as an independent verb: to "photo jump."

Because of the scale and importance to all of us through pictures, media, language, etc., most heard of Adobe Photoshop CS5, as popularly just goes under the name of Photoshop, but it's far from all who have formed closer ties with the program.

Description
The program can be used for much more than just editing the pictures, but I see in this article only on the program with the photographer's eyes.

If you as a photographer is considering to buy Adobe Photoshop CS5, you will be familiar with RAW files and have possibly worked with Camera Raw before.

When you open a RAW file in Adobe Photoshop CS5 starts the Camera Raw 6, which is a new version of the Adobe Camera Raw.

Maybe you have an old version of Adobe Photoshop CS and consider whether you should upgrade now. It is not possible to describe all functions of the program, but I will point out a few of the features that I think makes the program very interesting and also not in previous versions of Adobe Photoshop CS.

Content Aware Fill
Content Aware fill allows you to remove objects from the foreground of an image. Adobe Photoshop CS5 analyzes the image and replaces the selected area with pixels from the picture that matches the background.

The picture above, we will remove the pole, which he stands. I've marked the pole with the polygonal lasso. When the object is selected I choose Edit> Fill and then the Content-Aware.

It took less than a minute, and the result speaks for itself.

It's not always that it is just as easy and sometimes you have to choose other methods to remove objects such as Clone Stamp Tool or combining several different tools.

Puppet Warp
Another very remarkable new tool is Puppet Warp, which makes it possible to bend, twist and turn the objects on an image.

The best way to learn to use Puppet Warp is by itself to test Puppet Warp go into Edit> Puppet Warp. In the picture below, I have bent and twisted in the mill arm.

In the picture below, I have used several different tools, but among other things, Puppet Warp.

HDR
Merge two HDR has been improved. HDR, High Dynamic Range, is a great tool, and probably my personal favorite in CS5, the optimal exposure in the whole picture and can help to create incredibly beautiful pictures. With CS5, the arrival of a new feature in the creation of HDR images as called Remove Ghosts, which in practice means that Adobe Photoshop CS5 removes the places where the same object overlaps itself in the finished image. This feature means that you now can actually take the pictures you use for HDR image handheld.

I have previously written a guide to how you create HDR images in Adobe Photoshop CS5 .

HDR editing images is both fun and easy to play with, thanks to Adobe Photoshop CS5 and the results are often impressive and only the improvements of this feature is enough that I wanted to update from a previous version of Adobe Photoshop CS5

Adobe Photoshop CS5 is a program out of the ordinary. I do not yet know the program fully and discover new editing options continue with the program. Have you never worked with image editing will Adobe Photoshop CS5 be probably be a little too big mouthful to start with, but if you've used Adobe Elements or other minor editing programs and likes to find polish and circles for detail will Adobe Photoshop CS5 open an even larger universe of creative editing options. You should be aware that there probably is more than just a month or two before you begin to master the program, but the Internet is packed with guides and tutorials, although Adobe has guides and tutorials on their website.

Adobe Photoshop is the program I use most User Functions. image editing, it is and remains enough Lightroom, all my pictures come through, but my best pictures are all also a walk through Adobe Photoshop CS5.

Conclusion
As stated in the introduction, include Adobe Photoshop CS5 to be heavy and it rubs off course by the price. Is the program worth the money and lives up to all the attention it gets? Yes, Adobe Photoshop CS5 belongs not just to the top of the pops in editing software, Adobe Photoshop CS5 beats everything else I've tried programs. If you like the tools and effects in Adobe Elements and have learned to use the program, you will love Adobe Photoshop CS5.

The program is expensive and complicated, but the possibilities are endless and the availability of guides and tutorials, videos, magazines and books makes Adobe Photoshop CS5 should be combined with the latest camera and the latest lenses be in top 5 in every photographer's wish list.

Adobe Photoshop CS5 eliminates Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and is not just a step or two up, but several floors. I've said before that if I had to choose between Adobe Photoshop Elements and Adobe Lightroom 3, I would choose both, but I had to choose between Adobe Lightroom 3 and Adobe Photoshop CS5 would be whether a good workflow and magic - for although we know that it's just computer technology, then you can with Adobe Photoshop CS5 create magical images!
