the original scenario was a photoshop user switching to lightroom and it's not a difficult transition to make.Eric Stevensit absolutely is the case, however, the payoff may be longer if the new app is complex. it depends what you're doing and how often you do it.Eric Stevensnospam
Why learn a new way of doing something when you can laready do it without much apparent difficulty?
because the productivity increase is huge and the amount of time to learn something new is small (often negligible).
You are confused.
" ... and the amount of time to learn something new is small (often negligible)."
"That certainly isn't the case if you have to learn something like photoshop."
" ... it absolutely is the case, ... "
Do you really think I was talking about productivity?
and a zillion more features.nospamEric Stevens
and this isn't about learning a new app from scratch either. typically there's a new feature that simplifies what you've been doing before. for instance, content aware fill can in many cases, drastically reduce the amount of time needed to retouch a photo, and it's not that hard to learn how to use it.
Yeah. Photoshop and Gimp are the same except that Photoshop has content aware fill.
