LR can handle all else and more, including access to the NIK Collection, and OnOne (Which gives you Perfect Layers to use with LR).
Well, if you go out of LR to use a plug-in, that's about the same as going out of LR to use PS.
However, if all you have on your computer is LR5 and the NIK Collection, or the OnOne Suite, you still have a very powerful editing/adjustment tool without the intervention of PS. The competent LR% users is going to be able to survive quite well without invoking PS.
even for not so competent users.
the number of tasks for which photoshop (any version) is needed that can't be done in lightroom grows smaller all the time.
Tony, I am about to agree with nospam!
Yet, you and I just signed up for CC just for those extra features that are not included in LR or Elements.
Frankly, I am somewhat puzzled about why people like nospam, and even you, try so hard to convince everyone that Lightroom is the panacea of photo editing. I get why you like it, but I don't get why you continually imply - if not aver - that those of us who are aren't on the bandwagon are doing something wrong.
We are doing what we feel comfortable in doing, whether it's continuing to use a CS version or Gimp, and most of us are turning out some pretty decent stuff in doing so. Any failings in output are more failings in input from when we push the shutter button.
Nospam's positions about effort and productivity are patently bullshit. The issue isn't about a production shop where there are deadlines and cost issues. It's about individuals pursuing a hobby.
It seems to be something related to some deep-seated need to be right and a need to feel like the bell sheep. Part of the push-back you get is because some of us really don't like being told what do.
