bridge sucks.Savageducknospam
photoshop is an extremely capable image editing app but it lacks some of the stuff lightroom has.
Other than the cataloging/library features they are very similar animals even down to using the same RAW processing engine. Once you consider PS comes with Bridge, you just have a slightly different workflow to learn to gain similar benefits from either LR or PS.
agreed but it sounds like he wants to do fancier things than what lightroom is suited for.Tony CooperSavageduck
And vice-versa. LR lacks some things PS has. The better system is having both LR and either CS or Elements.
For most photography oriented folks LR is all that is needed.
Once you add in a need for major cutting & pasting, then PSE or CS6/CC should be added. Also, if you are doing any compositing, PSE won't cut it, then the LR5 + PS CS6/CC workflow option is the way to go.right.
RAW processing with the version of ACR packaged with PSE is well short of the features found in LR5 and PS CS6/CC.eventually maybe, but it's nothing that matters right now.
