Tony Coopersome of them. not all. photoshop supports a wide variety of plug-ins.
Elements includes Layers, and has for several versions. Missing from Elements is the ability to use a Layer Mask, but Layers is there.
Lightroom accepts PS plug-ins.
Lightroom is no more over-the top for editing than CS or Elements. Some might say it's less complicated, but that's not a definable statement since it depends entirely on to what extent editing will be done on an image.it's more difficult because it was designed by geeks who don't know much about ui/ux design. photoshop was desgined by photographers and graphic artists *for* photographers and graphic artists, and it's been refined over the years.Tony CooperYouDontNeedToKnowButItsNoëlle
As powerfull as PS CS is the Gimp ; the learning curve is step or worse. But at last, it is free.
The learning curve for Gimp is no different than the learning curve for CS, Elements, or Lightroom for basic editing. It is a bit more difficult to learn only because there are fewer tutorials, and some of the tutorials are not as well done as the ones for the Adobe products.
support dng in the camera, which very few cameras do. nikon/canon never will.SandmanTony Cooper
Adobe really wants people to use the open DNG format, but few manufacturers do, and Nikon and Canon probably never will.
I don't know what you mean there by "few manufacturers do". Do what?
Adobe's Bridge will automatically convert .NEF files to .dng files during import if you tick the box, but Adobe products process .NEF files.that's after the fact.
